How a new Churchill apartment could help reduce your costs:
We offer some of the lowest service charges in the retirement sector which is why many of our Residents are pleasantly surprised to find that the service charges work out lower than what they were paying, in comparable costs, on their previous home.
This is because the service charge combines a wide range of services and property-related expenses into a combined cost. Residents find they benefit from a more manageable and easier-to-budget lifestyle, without having to worry about unexpected maintenance bills.
We always aim to keep the service charge cost as low as possible, and we provide a full budget breakdown for all our Residents, consulting with them on this every 6 months.
The service charge covers:
- The cost of your dedicated Lodge Manager
- Security systems
- 24-hour Careline call monitoring system
- External maintenance of the building and grounds
- Heating & lighting of communal areas
- Provision of furnishings in communal areas
- Building insurance
Who is responsible for the management of the Lodge?
All developments are managed by Churchill Estates Management Limited, our own property management company, so you can be confident in the expertise of our team operating under the Churchill Group.
No exit fees, meaning no unexpected costs!
In 2025 we announced that Residents will no longer pay any exit fees when selling or subletting their apartments, making the process far more straightforward and hassle-free. Whilst many retirement housing providers still apply fees, we have set a new standard by abolishing them entirely - helping to provide greater peace of mind and making life simpler both for Residents and their families!
Calculating your savings...
We appreciate everyone's household costs will differ which is why we encourage Customers to complete a 'Savings Calculator' with one of our Sales Executives. This calculator is designed to offer a comprehensive understanding of the value in our easy to budget Service Charge.
An elegant Regency spa town in Gloucestershire, Cheltenham sits at the foot of the Cotswolds with the development in the heart of town. Coffee shops, pharmacies, national retailers, and restaurants are within walking distance, making it a convenient and enjoyable place in which to enjoy retirement.
Beyond the town centre, the Cotswolds rise close by with countryside walks and villages to explore, while the parks of Pittville, Sandford, and Montpellier offer green space nearer the centre. Good road and rail links reach Gloucester, Oxford, and beyond for wider days out.
Local highlights
Montpellier Gardens, in the smart Montpellier quarter, offer flowerbeds, mature trees, and benches within easy reach of the shops. A calm spot for a sit or a stroll, the surrounding streets add independent boutiques and cafés for a relaxed browse afterwards.
Cheltenham hosts over 30 festivals each year, celebrating literature, music, food, jazz, and science, drawing well-known names to the town. Many events are relaxed and accessible, making it easy to enjoy a talk, a concert, or a demonstration at your own pace through the year.
The Everyman Theatre, designed by Frank Matcham, is Cheltenham's principal theatre, staging drama, comedy, music, and pantomime in a restored Victorian auditorium. Comfortable and central, it makes an easy evening out, and the town's restaurants are close by for a meal beforehand.

Don't just take it from us
“The other Residents have all been very kind, friendly and helpful. The Lodge Manager likewise has done her level best to welcome, support and assist us to feel at home, as she does for all Residents.”
“I have been very happy since moving to Lewis Carroll Lodge. There are a lot of activities every week and I have made many friends. Fay and I have a great time going to the theatre, out for lunch or sometimes just wandering round the town. I have never had such a busy social life.”
