No transport links until you drive to the main road.
Lovely views across the South Downs, if you bought one of the original south facing apartments, although not so pleasant to witness dogs defaecating on The Gertrude Jekyll Lawns. Purchesers on other parts of the Estate do not have any views.

Perfect location in Bristol, everywhere is a walkable distance, but not quite in the loud city centre. Bedminster is up and coming and lots of development is happening around the area. Street parking is easy enough, and about as safe as you can get in a city.

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

There’s a lot of new student housing going up across the road, so be aware there will be an influx of students once that’s is finished.

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

They do respond, and get issues fixed, but you do need to chase to get it sorted.
They do seem to not be doing anything over issues with the access gate not closing properly, resulting in bike thefts even though lots of complaints have been raised by residents…

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

Are you kidding me? The management of this property is abysmal. You may as well talk to a brick wall. She is not interested in the goings on of the development. Only money.

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

That I looked into the company (Encore). They are a joke!!

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

No foul language (!). What else can I say about them?

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

Great up and coming area, very central, easy to walk, cycle or catch a bus to most places from just outside the building. Access to Voi scooters. Area is a mix of old and a few new businesses. street gets a bit loud but only if when you’ve got the windows open. Victoria park 5 min walk away which is great. The bars and restaurants on the harbour are a 15 min walk away. on the same street as the build there’s a high street with a bit of everything going on. Overall I really like the area

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

Parking options on spaces, would recommend trying to get one

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

Had issues getting bits resolved quickly, but most bits have been sorted.
