My club, Burley Golf Club, is close to the development and I play with my good friends, so we\u2019re not too competitive. I like to be out in the fresh air and it\u2019s a great way for me to exercise and keep active.<\/p><p>\u201cI enjoy the independent lifestyle that is on offer at King Edgar Lodge, I still drive so I often venture out and about in town and further afield. I had been considering a move to a retirement development for a while when I woke up one morning and just thought to myself \u2013 I\u2019m 76 years old, what better time to move than now. I\u2019ve had a few health issues and my three-bedroom house was starting to feel too big for me. It was 120 years old with a huge conservatory and there was always something that needed doing - it was a big responsibility to maintain.<\/p><p>\u201cI looked around the development while it was still under construction and knew it was where I should be. I used Churchill\u2019s Home Exchange Service, which went smoothly and took the weight of selling my home off my shoulders. I\u2019ve settled in fantastically; all of my old furniture fit into my new two-bedroom apartment and having a Lodge Manager on-site is comforting if ever I need any help. I also recommended the Lodge to a close friend of mine and he\u2019s ended up moving in too. It\u2019s good for your family to know that you\u2019re safe and secure too so I\u2019d say to anyone thinking about it to make the move now, while you\u2019ve still got your marbles!\u201d<\/p><p>Located on Christchurch Road, Churchill Retirement Living\u2019s King Edgar Lodge development is a collection of 25 one and two bedroom apartments in a superb location close to local shops and amenities.&nbsp; King Edgar Lodge is the first of Churchill\u2019s developments to feature its new Autograph Collection, a more bespoke and intimate collection of apartments with interiors designed by renowned interior designer Jane Clayton.<\/p><p>Apartments boast spacious rooms throughout and an ideal combination of design and functionality.

All of the properties benefit from illuminated light switches and Owners can enjoy ultimate peace of mind from a fitted camera entry system for the highest level of security and 24 hour emergency call system.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Owners can also take advantage of a host of other benefits on offer including having family or friends to stay in the development\u2019s well-appointed Guest Suite, and enjoying a chat with neighbours in the Coffee Lounge.&nbsp; Churchill\u2019s Reward Card also gives access to exclusive deals and discounts on a variety of national brands and local retailers.<\/p><p>Prices at King Edgar Lodge currently start from \u00a3246,950 for a one bedroom apartment.
