We are delighted to introduce an exclusive collection of two bedroom retirement cottages at Tannery Lodge, coming soon to the sought-after village of Wigginton.
Designed specifically for those seeking to downsize without compromising on space or independence, these thoughtfully designed cottages offer a unique opportunity to enjoy the benefits of retirement living within a welcoming and like-minded community. Our cottages are particularly popular with homeResidents who value their independence while also appreciating the reassurance of being part of a wider retirement community. HomeResidents can choose to become part of the main Lodge community through an optional membership, providing access to a variety of social activities, events and communal facilities, while retaining complete freedom and privacy. Each cottage benefits from dedicated parking, a private garden and a garden shed for additional storage, making them ideal for those who enjoy outdoor space or have pets.
Sold on a freehold basis, the cottages also benefit from a simple management arrangement that includes services such as window cleaning, communal grounds maintenance and a 24-hour Careline support service for added peace of mind. The cottages form part of the wider Tannery Lodge retirement community, which will also feature a collection of 45 one and two bedroom retirement apartments. Wigginton is a desirable village offering a range of everyday amenities, including local shops, pubs, health and leisure facilities. The neighbouring village of Haxby provides further conveniences, including supermarkets, a Post Office and a variety of independent shops and businesses. Residents will also benefit from easy access to York city centre, with its extensive choice of shopping, dining, cultural attractions and leisure opportunities. The nearby A1237 York Ring Road offers excellent connections to the surrounding area and wider road network, making Tannery Lodge an ideal location for those looking to enjoy an active, independent and well-connected retirement lifestyle.
The cottages at Tannery Lodge are expected to launch in Winter 2026. Register your interest today to be among the first to receive updates, floor plans, pricing information and invitations to exclusive launch events as they become available.

Each cottage benefits from dedicated parking and a private garden, ideal if you have a pet, enjoy outdoor space or simply value privacy. The garden includes a practical shed suitable for storing garden tools, bicycles or patio furniture. Cottages are sold freehold and benefit from a straightforward management arrangement, which includes services such as window cleaning, communal garden maintenance and a 24-hour Careline support system, offering peace of mind when thinking ahead.
Every cottage is energy efficient and thoughtfully designed, featuring a spacious living room with triple glazed windows throughout. Kitchens are finished with colour-coordinated worktops and units and include an integrated fridge freezer, electric waist-height single oven and ceramic hob, combining style with practicality.
The living and dining area provides a welcoming space to relax, entertain family and friends, and opens directly onto the private garden. The accommodation has been carefully planned to remain flexible and adaptable, supporting both modern living and future requirements.
The main bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom, complemented by a separate ground floor shower room or WC.
All cottages come with a three-year warranty for added reassurance, in addition to a ten-year New Homes Warranty, ensuring lasting peace of mind in your retirement years.

What’s included in my service charge?
Our Service Charge typically covers the maintenance of the front gardens, along with the private road and associated drainage. It also includes window cleaning, the Lodge Manager and the 24 hour Careline support system.
We always aim to keep the service charge cost as low as possible, and we provide a full budget breakdown for all our Residents to consider, consulting with them on this every 6 months.
“Living in a Churchill Apartment is absolutely marvellous. The whole building is so nice and warm all the time that we’ve hardly had to use the heating inside our apartment. When we do turn it up a notch or two it’s nice to know we don’t have to worry about the cost or the environmental impact, as it’s all so energy efficient and covered within our annual service charge.”
John and Doreen Pitt, Lewis Carroll Lodge, Cheltenham
We appreciate everyone’s household costs will differ, and just how daunting the idea of a service charge can be. We are here to help you every step of the way, please contact one of the team to discuss your current costs and help you discover just how much you could be saving.
