Excellent Management and Comfortable Living Environment

Patrick (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Woodland Heath, NR13

Oct 2025

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The property is very nice, but there are no shops or restaurants nearby. The nearest Tesco is about a 5–10 minute drive away. As new houses are being built in the area, there may be some noise from large trucks passing by and a bit of dust. Otherwise, it’s a very quiet and pleasant place to live.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

The building management team is helpful, responsive, and proactive in addressing any issues I report.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Before moving in, I would have liked to know that the area is still under development, which means occasional noise and dust from construction. In addition, there are limited amenities within walking distance. However, the environment is quiet and the living experience has been generally positive.

Manager response

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you have been happy in your new home and that our building and property management teams have been friendly and responsive. We appreciate your comments regarding the surrounding area; as you’ve noted, it’s still developing, and we’re confident that as new amenities open nearby, the convenience and community feel will continue to improve. Thank you once again for your kind words and for recommending us!

Whenever there is any problems with your property they are quite quick to come out

Jayne D (Owner)

Verified Resident

Bowlers Green, NR31

Aug 2025

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

I like living on this estate as it’s not overcrowded with properties. Everyone has plenty of room and we’re not on top of each other. The only thing I don’t like is that we don’t have street lighting and it’s very dark at night, especially if you are walking alone. There are shops within walking distance and also one public house. The bus route is a walk away but we do have quite a few choices of which bus to take. Everything else in my option is very good.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Probably not to get one of the houses that hack onto the main road as I believe there is a lot of traffic noise.

What is the best feature of your home:

I think the best features are the size of the garden and also we are not too close to anyone. There is ample space between our property and next door.

Manager response

Thank you Jayne for your 5* review of your new Lovell Home at Bowlers Green in Hopton on Sea. We are so pleased to hear about your experience and that you are enjoying both your new home and the surrounding location. Great to hear your son also bought on the same development! Thank you again and we hope that you continue to be very happy in your new home!
