A great place to live in a vibrant area!

The buildings and development feel very private and secluded despite being so close to the city and local amenities. We like the minimalist modern aesthetic with each apartment well equipped and aesthetic.

In terms of facilities there is on site parking and a well equipped residence lounge which is very pleasant. There are also green spaces all around with easy access to benches but these do need modernising with new benches as the old ones are quite run down. There is an issue with many many cars parking at the front despite the residences not allowing this. The parcel lockers are convenient as well.

The maintenance within the apartments is very very good and everything is completed professionally and quickly but numerous aspects on the outside need work such as broken tiles being left for far too long.

The management are brilliant and do a great job at both offering friendly assistance with everything as well as contacting us frequently. I do wish we were updated on maintenance and what is going on as there can be quite loud work in the corridors with no notice.

Overall a really good place to live for a good price with great staff.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Headingley Park is located very conveniently within walking distance of Headingley as well as Leeds City centre and the immediate are is well connected but also set back providing a nice sense of privacy.

A train station is only 10 minutes walk away which is very convenient and there are many local bus stops and shops within only 5 minutes.

The are can be a little rough at times especially being so close to Hyde Park – there is quite the little problem at times but this is only in certain areas and the development is very clean.

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

I wish we had know a little more about the cost of living here with how much each aspect costs such as WiFi and electricity but overall everything is reasonable.

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

Very quick responses overall with great attention to detail and making sure that everything is taken care of propped. It really is great having people on site during the week too and that is something we really appreciate.

Was considering moving to another complex, so glad I didn’t! Love it here

Feels like a dream living here, and an absolutely excellent place to live for couples moving in together for the first time. I live in one of the newer houses (Longfield House), and the fittings and design are really modern. The community events are really fun, and a great way to meet residents. We live in the same building as the residents lounge, and as me and my wife both work remotely, it’s really nice to be able to get to work in less than 5 minutes. One of the things we were considering is that living in a development is more expensive — but with the money we save on coffee (and this adds up), it would be the same as living outside, only we got all sorts of amenities. It’s also really nice to work in the same space as Isobel and Charlotte, who are super nice and always there whenever you need something!

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

We’re in the Headingley Area, so there’s so much life. Hyde Park Book Club, a gig space that constantly has concerts, is 5 minutes away. Hyde Park Picture House is about a 10 minutes walk and they have lots of film screenings, where they invite directors. Brudenell Social Club is in the area as well, and lots of secret shows happen there when international artists fly in for music festivals. The skatepark is about a 5 minute walk away as well. If clubs are your sort of thing, there are a few away, and the bus stop is right across the road in Headingley Lane — so its just 10 minutes into the centre.

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

I’m quite happy, I don’t feel anything was kept from me.

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

Building management are extremely quick with resolving issues. We had a problem with meterpay and our electricity, and by the time we got back home from the groceries, it was resolved.

Can’t fault it

Between our spacious flat, the residents lounge, having parcel management and knowing it’s gated and monitored by CCTV, I have absolutely no complaints. The convenience of having staff on site 5 days a week and a maintenance team able to assist within 15 minutes of submitting a request, I feel very fortunate to live here. The garden and grounds are well maintained and it’s always clean and tidy.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

The accessibility is perfect, you have a bus stop right at the entrance, shops are a 10 minute walk away, you can get into the Leeds city centre practically from your doorstep and Headingley is such a short distance away, I walk there most days for the shops, the post office, the restaurants, etc.

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

We weren’t aware there was a primary school right next door, between about 12:15 and 12:45 each afternoon you do hear quite a lot of screaming, and sometimes it’s like that at other points of the day too, but it’s really not an issue, I just tend to keep my windows closed during those periods.

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

They’ve all been seen to and fixed pretty much the same day we requested them. Everything gets dealt with as soon as possible.

Calm area to live

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Headingly Park Residence and I must say, it exceeded all of my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a genuine desire to make my stay as comfortable as possible.

The residence itself is absolutely stunning. The architecture and design are modern and stylish, creating a welcoming and luxurious atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and beautifully furnished, with all the amenities one could need for a comfortable stay. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night’s sleep.

One of the highlights of my stay was the impeccable service provided by the staff. They were always available to assist with any requests or questions I had, and their attention to detail was truly impressive. Whether it was arranging transportation, recommending local attractions, or simply ensuring that I had everything I needed, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel like a valued guest.

Overall, my experience at the Headingly Park Residence was nothing short of exceptional. From the beautiful accommodations to the outstanding service, every aspect of my stay was truly memorable. I would highly recommend this residence to anyone looking for a luxurious and unforgettable experience.

The location of the Headingly Park Residence is also fantastic. Situated in a peaceful and picturesque neighborhood, it offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. However, it is still conveniently located near various amenities and attractions, making it easy to explore and enjoy everything the area has to offer.

I also had the opportunity to dine at the on-site restaurant, and I must say, the food was exceptional. The menu offered a wide range of delicious options, and each dish was expertly prepared and presented. The restaurant itself had a cozy and inviting ambiance, making it the perfect place to enjoy a meal.

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

That the building close to main road where I can hear a lot of traffic sounds

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

Yes
They respond very fast
They fix everything I ordered
