About

Oadby Cottages is a retirement living development operated by Churchill Living, available both to buy and to rent. The cottages offer a downsizing option with a greater degree of independence than apartment-based living, and each includes dedicated parking and a private garden — features that suit those with pets. A small storage shed is provided in each garden.

Residents may choose to join the main Lodge community through a small club membership fee, which grants access to community activities and events, though participation is entirely optional.
