Great Haddon is located conveniently close to local shops and restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet, outside of occasional construction and parking is no issue due to designated parking spots.

Since moving in Nigel Cherry has been my go to for getting any issues resolved.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I would reccomend placing an order for bins as soon as possible as they can take several weeks to arrive.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The area is very quiet, clean and feels safe, with a lot of people walking around which gives it a nice community feel. The main downside is that there aren’t many shops yet. There is a Co-op and a gym, but for more variety you need to travel into the town centre. This is understandable as the area is still developing.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Management has been responsive and helpful. Any minor issues or repairs have been handled quickly and without hassle.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That local amenities are still limited and you’ll likely need to travel for bigger food shops or more variety, although this should improve as the area develops.
Manager response
Hi, thank you for your fantastic feedback. We're delighted to hear you're enjoying the development, your home, and the strong community feel. It’s great to know our team have been responsive and helpful. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The development is very close to a Tescos, a train station, a bus route and there are multiple pubs. The development looks lovely there is even a food truck that comes nearby each week - organised by the off beaten truck! My only bad aspect is I wish there was a closer smaller shop for convenience.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We haven’t had any issues so far, but with how the lettings agency are - I’m sure their building management team is just as good !
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Definitely do you research of the surrounding area as there are so many hidden gems ! We have found a book club and a food truck company who regularly visits
