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.
Chippenham is a charming market town in Wiltshire, set on the banks of the River Avon between the Marlborough Downs, the southern Cotswolds, and Salisbury Plain. With town centre shops close by and plenty of local walks, it is a convenient and characterful place to enjoy retirement.
Beyond the town, the River Avon and the surrounding Wiltshire countryside offer gentle walks with wildlife and rare plants, while the Cotswolds are close by. Bath, Bristol, and fast trains to London make the wider area easy to reach for shopping and days out.
Local highlights
The River Avon flows through the town, with riverside paths and central parks including Monkton Park which offers level, green walks. Open lawns, benches, and abundant birdlife make it an easy and pleasant place for a gentle stroll close to the centre.
A short drive away, Castle Combe is often called England's prettiest village, with honey-coloured cottages, an old market cross, and a bubbling brook. Gentle lanes and a tearoom make it an easy and charming outing into the Cotswold countryside.
Nearby Lacock, a National Trust village of timber-framed cottages, is famous from film and television, with a medieval abbey and a photography museum. Level streets, gardens, and a café make it an easy and characterful day out into history.
What our Residents say
Don't just take it from us
“It’s pretty big for a one bedroom apartment, with a huge bedroom which doubles as a study. I have masses of storage space too, a big kitchen and a big bathroom. My apartment faces southwest over our glorious garden, and there is natural light at both ends of my hallway. There’s also a staircase opposite my front door, which is a big plus, so I can take the stairs and rarely need to use the lift and hallways.”
“I love the garden and look forward to the summer when I can sit out on the grass. This was a big attraction when I was looking for a place. It has been lovely to know there are other folk around you and we can meet up for coffee and tea and even hot lunches, courtesy of our wonderful Lodge Manager. We have so much going on – my friends ask me when I am free.”
