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

The local area around Assembly Park is peaceful and safe. There are several supermarkets, coffee shops and restaurants nearby, and Telford Shopping Centre is only a short drive away. Public transport is convenient, with bus routes and the train station not too far. Parking on our street is easy, and bin collections are regular and reliable. Overall, it’s a pleasant and convenient place to live.

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

Management responded quickly and professionally to any issues, always making sure everything was resolved efficiently.

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

It would have been nice to know that the management team regularly organizes community events. It really helps to get to know neighbours and makes the place feel welcoming.

Development is great overall

Christian (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Assembly Park, TF1

Oct 2025

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

Excellent local Co-op with great staff. There are also a selection of nearby supermarkets like Aldi, Morrisons and Tesco. Telford town centre is only a 15 minute drive away. Close links to a railway station with Wellingston station is in walking distance. Great open spaces with Dothill nature reserve and fields nearby. Living here has been great with no anti-social behaviour or traffic noise. Driving around the estate recently has been a challenge due to current road works and road surfacing that is taking place soon.

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

The responses from the building management have been quick and always friendly. Only issue was how long it took for us to get our bathroom extractor fan fixed. We had many appointments booked to get this sorted but electrician didn't show up. It was the third time lucky in the end.

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

It would have been good to see a plan of what works that were upcoming on the development so we knew what to expect in terms of road works etc.

Manager response

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughtful feedback and for recommending us, we really appreciate it. We’re delighted to hear that you’re happy with the home and it great to know that Alisha has made such a positive impression - we’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to her. We’re sorry to hear about the inconvenience caused by the missed electrician appointments and appreciate your patience while this was resolved.

It’s wonderful to know you’re enjoying the local area and community atmosphere. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience!

A good home for our family (Updated review)

Anand A (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Assembly Park, TF1

Oct 2025

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

This is our second year of living here. We feel fortunate to live here because of the following Location: PRH is walking distance and so is Charlton School and Dothill Primary School. Two nature preserves on either side of Assembly park helps to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Bus stop is 5-10 minute walk, Wellington station is 5 minutes by car. Aldi, Morrisons and the Wellington Market is 5-10 minutes by car as well. Neighbours: We are blessed to have friendly neighbours who look out for each other. What's living on your street like: Bin collections are regular. If they miss, which happens rarely, registering a ticket on the council website resolves the missed bin collection the next day. Haven't heard or seen any anti social behaviour on our street. For those working from home, it's quiet here.

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

We haven't had any issues to deal with. We did request our locks to be replaced from a fob based key to a regular key but they had planned to do it for everyone in our street and got it done without any issues.

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

We have only good things to speak of about Assembly park . We like the location, the neighbours are friendly and help each other out.

Manager response

We’re delighted that you’d recommend us and truly value having you as part of the Assembly Park community.

Opinion on our house and Estate

Sam R (Owner)

Wild Walk, TF2

Sept 2025

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

Very good with the Range of shops Also really good with dog walking tracks especially with the Granville. Bad aspects would be noisy cars plus we had a new born which wasn’t ideal

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

Our location is very Good not too busy people using the streets but we do have kids with loud motorbikes going at midnight

What is the best feature of your home:

The design was really good and also we had the furniture all in as well so that’s really helped up, the storage under the stairs and upstairs are great sizes. The garden size is superb and we aren’t over looked which is perfect.
