Russell Lodge is a beautiful development of 46 one and two bedroom retirement apartments located in the town of Fleet. It is named after John Russell, the British American art critic born in Fleet who contributed to both The Sunday Times and The New York Times for more than half a century. Russell is widely credited with helping to bring a generation of post war British artists to international attention.

Well located just off Fleet’s traditional high street, the development is ideally placed for the town centre shops and amenities, which include a number of High Street shops alongside smaller independent retailers and a good selection of cafes, coffee shops and restaurants.

Hart Leisure Centre has facilities which include a 25 metre pool, gym, squash and badminton courts and holds regular classes and activities which cater for those over 60. To the north of the town and set amongst stately pines and silver birch trees, the North Hants Golf Club has a modern and welcoming clubhouse and an 18-hole heathland course for both members and visitors to enjoy.

Fleet is ideally placed for exploring the surrounding Hampshire towns and many parishes of unspoiled villages and pretty hamlets and has excellent transport links. The town has a train station with regular services to London Waterloo and is close to the M3 motorway with access to both the south coast, London and beyond.

The Lodge manager is on hand throughout the day to support the Owners and keep the development in perfect shape as well as arranging many regular events in the Owners’ 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.
