Find a retirement property

“We have a Lodge Manager who is always available to answer any queries, as well as a beautiful Owners’ Lounge where we can all get together for tea and cakes or just to sit and chat with the other apartment Owners whenever we feel the need. There is always someone to chat to whenever you come down to the Lounge.”

“The nice thing about being in the ‘mob’ was the social life and the general friendliness of everyone, and this is what I look forward to with Churchill Retirement Living. We have all chosen to be here in this new community at Orchard Lodge, and we have all worked hard to be where we are today.”

“I was delighted when the company offered me the chance to use their Home Exchange Service. This proved to be very efficient and I was quickly able to move into my new home without the worry of selling my house, and with no Estate Agency fees either. I would recommend Home Exchange to anyone.”

“I have so much more free time now that I’m living here, with much less of my day having to be spent on general maintenance that comes being solely responsible for a house. My new apartment is well laid-out and easy to live in, and the communal areas are great to socialise with other Owners in.”

“At my age do I really need 5 bedrooms, a high maintenance garden and domestic appliances all reaching their life’s end at the same time? No I don’t! So I’ve moved into a spacious apartment, with 2 bedrooms, gardens that are maintained for me, and appliances that are all brand spanking new.”

“Our Lodge Manager Dermot is very kind and helpful, he likes organising events like quizzes for us all to enjoy, and he’s good at encouraging people to join in without being too pushy.”

“It’s just so lovely here, you can’t do better. Everything has to come together like a jigsaw. There’s always a smile, always a chat to be had, it’s a real family environment. I’m very impressed with the apartment, it’s fantastic.”

“We didn’t know a single person in Eastbourne, so it was quite brave to move here, but we are the type of people who join things. My hobby is swimming so I knew I’d meet people doing that, and my husband has joined a creative group as he’s a writer. We also go to a lot of social events within the development and we’ve already made some very good friends.”

“Stanley Lodge is very close to my previous home so I’m familiar with the local area. The apartments are well designed and it’s good to have contact with other Owners’ at regular Coffee Mornings”

“The facilities here are excellent. The Owners’ Lounge is so nice and cosy, and our son can stay over in the Guest Suite when he comes down from Lancashire to visit. We’ve found it very peaceful here despite being such a central location, and another good thing about being so close to town is that we don’t need the car any more.”
