Completed in 2018 by the well-regarded firm Churchill Retirement Living, Sarum Lodge has been built with modern living, ease and comfort in mind, with a spacious owners lounge, buggy store, corridors wide enough for electric buggies and wheelchairs, a Lodge Manager, guest suite and secure, gated parking available for owners (on a first come, first serve basis).
