How a new Churchill apartment could help reduce your costs:
Now is the time to take stock and think about how much time and money you have spent over the past year on house maintenance. If the answer is far too much, then a lifestyle with fewer maintenance worries and a service charge that’s easy to budget for could be the answer to saving money and enjoying more of your time on the things you love.
There are many misconceptions about service charges and many of our Owners are pleasantly surprised that the service charges for their apartment frequently work out less than what they were paying in comparable costs on their previous property.
Our Service Charge typically covers the cost of providing a Lodge Manager, security systems and call monitoring, external maintenance of the building and grounds, building insurance, heating, lighting and provision of all of the furnishings for the Owners’ Lounge and communal areas – all essential ingredients of the independent lifestyle our developments provide.
We always aim to keep the service charge cost as low as possible, and we provide a full budget breakdown for all our Owners to consider, consulting with them on this every 6 months.
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.

Testimonials
Liz Horder
"My one-bedroom apartment works so well for me. It's just the right size, and the low-maintenance aspect has truly freed up my time to enjoy life. It felt quite daunting downsizing from a three-storey home to a one-bedroom apartment, but Churchill’s Senior Move scheme was invaluable."
Anthony & Gail Dowling
“The other Owners 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 Owners."
Fay Gavaghan
“My social life has soared since moving here and I’ve made some very good friends, especially Fran. We have such a good laugh together!”
Fran Byles
“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.”
