Delightful Stay

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

I have had the best experience living here for the past 22 months. Special shout out to Jess MacGregor who has been an absolute delight to coordinate with in regards to any support that I required. The entire moving in and moving out process was smooth and seamless.

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

Yes the building management has been extremely responsive and efficient in dealing with any problems and have been quick in responses. This was endearing considering I am not a UK citizen snd needed to be educated about a lot of aspects of living here.

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

I wish I had known that my mobile service was going to give me issues with basic phone connectivity. Initially I did think this was an issue with my mobile provider but cabbies used to complain about poor service network too.

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

We are in a nice safe area that is close enough to Norwich without experiencing the traffic ect. We are close to a number of supermarkets but maybe slightly further away from pubs and restaurants than we would like to be

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

We haven’t had many issues since moving in although when we have asked questions the responses have been fast and informative.

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

We were wrongly informed about WiFi prior to move in so had to go weeks without signal when we could have sorted it beforehand

Cringleford Heights, NR4

Jun 2026

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

The property is a semi- detached house located in the end of road . It is calm and quiet , has less vehicle and foot traffic due to that . The house is not overlooked by other properties so has ample amount of privacy . Has got two designated parking spaces ( parallel) . The closest bus stop is located about 0.4 miles . We had no issues with bin collection or antisocial behaviour . Can walk to the hospital/ UEA within 20 minutes . The house has couple of solar panels and blinds fixed in as well.

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

There were emergency numbers that we could reach but did not have to use them. The property manager, Jess Macgregor was very responsive and resourceful and was the best.

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

None to report , it is a nice neighborhood as I mentioned

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

So far everything seems brilliant. From frequent transport, amble parking and all bins available including food waste. I love the fact that its a quiet area amongst trees and nature you wouldnt known you are on a housing Estate. The down fall is that there isnt a shop within walking distance .

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

We haven't had any issues so no concerns raised to them

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

Im not sure there is anything else I would of wanted to know before moving in as everything had been explained before we moved in

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

Its sooo peaceful and quiet and lots of trees. A really enjoyable place to live. Highly recommend and love it.

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

Yes Jess has been fabulous for us when we first moved in and the WiFi wasnt working correctly she linked us into the people we needed too and was sorted 1st time.

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

The phone signal is poor so without WiFi it makes moving providers and changing address and anything you need to call people more of a challenge.
