The River Walk follows the River Brain right through Witham, a level, well-kept green corridor of grass, copses, and wilder patches alive with birds. Its duck pond, with benches beside the water, is a popular spot for a quiet sit or a gentle stroll close to the centre.

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.
Witham is a friendly Essex town of old and modern buildings, with a variety of shops, cafés, and restaurants set just off the high street. With everyday amenities a short stroll away and green riverside walks running through the centre, it is a comfortable and convenient place to enjoy retirement.
Beyond the town centre, the River Brain winds through green spaces and nature reserves on the edge of town. Fast, direct trains reach London Liverpool Street in under an hour, while Chelmsford, Colchester, and the Essex coast are all close by for wider days out.
Local highlights
At the southern end of the River Walk, Whetmead Nature Reserve is a peaceful mix of meadow, scrub, and wetland between the rivers Brain and Blackwater. Its birds, butterflies, and seasonal wildflowers make it a quiet, easy-going spot for those who enjoy nature at a slower pace.
A short drive away, Cressing Temple Barns are two vast medieval timber barns built by the Knights Templar, set beside a walled Tudor garden. Guided visits, events, and a tea room make this an easy and memorable outing into local history.
Witham's Newland Street, the traditional heart of the town, is lined with Georgian frontages, independent shops, and old inns. A regular market and a good choice of cafés make it a pleasant place to browse, meet friends, and pass an easy morning.
What our Residents say
Don't just take it from us
“My friend had moved here and I used to come and visit her quite a lot. I got to like the way it was run and the whole feel of the place. I didn't think I'd be able to move, but the rental option made it possible and it's worked out really well!”
“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.”
