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.
Honiton is a market town in East Devon, set on the River Otter within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Its long, level high street of shops, cafés, and antique dealers gives it a distinctive character, while surrounding countryside and the coast nearby make it a rewarding place to enjoy retirement.
Beyond the town, the rolling Blackdown Hills and the Jurassic Coast at Sidmouth and Seaton are within easy reach. Exeter, with its cathedral and shopping, is around seventeen miles away, and a mainline station keeps London and the wider South West easy to reach.
Local highlights
All Hallows Museum, in the oldest building in Honiton, holds the world's most extensive display of Honiton lace, along with local history exhibits. Demonstrations of traditional lace-making and a central location make it an easy, interesting visit in the heart of town.
The River Otter runs beside the town, with gentle riverside and meadow walks close by. Level paths and open views make it an easy place for fresh air and birdwatching, part of the countryside that surrounds Honiton on every side.
A short drive south, the pebble beach and Regency seafront at Sidmouth offer a classic Devon day by the sea. Esplanade walks, tea rooms, and gardens make it a relaxed outing, with the red cliffs of the Jurassic Coast rising on either side.
What our Residents say
Don't just take it from us
“We used to live in a lovely village not far from here. It was a beautiful place but being further out is not so good as you get older, and we didn’t want to be reliant on driving the car to get anywhere. Now we’re in the middle of town, close to shops and services, the hospital and everything we need, it’s all right on our doorstep. Our daughter is very pleased we’re here and so are we!”
“I’ve been lucky enough to travel most of the world and what I love about Churchill is that it’s genuinely easy to just lock up and leave, knowing everything will be just as I left it when I return. I am closer to my family, I’ve got the freedom to travel when I want, and a welcoming home to return to. What more could you ask for?”
