The Towpath Trail, which runs the length of the canal, is the perfect spot for a leisurely walk, taking in the sights along the way.

The Lodge Manager is on hand throughout the day to support the Residents and keep the development in perfect shape, as well as arranging many regular events in the Residents’ Lounge from coffee mornings to games afternoons.

A Guest Suite is available for your friends and family to stay in. In addition, you are entitled to use of the Guest Suites at all Churchill Living developments across the country. Prices are available from the Lodge Manager.
