We feel the design of our davidsons home really stands out from other major developers and sets it apart from the standard new build home. The communal spaces are well thought out with a courtyard area for parking and wide roads. Although we had very little problems with our house, the management company were very helpful and quick to sort any snags.

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

We absolutely love living in our Davidsons home at New Lubbesthorpe. The development has been completed to a very high standard and we are impressed with both the building quality and the design of our house and estate. The layout has been well thought out with wide roads, communal parking spaces and nearby parks and open areas. Unfortunately we do find on street parking an issue which can be frustrating when navigating the roads around our house, driveways could have been better thought out for some of the houses on our estate to prevent this issue. We have no complaints with traffic noise or anti social behaviour.

The estate is well situated with many amenities nearby, including a primary school, ALDI and retail park, however could benefit from a small local shop. The main road created for the estate can be troublesome with large speed bumps which have caused a few issues to our cars, we are hoping these will be reduced in size once all building is complete.

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

Although we love the size of our windows and the large patio ‘pod’ – due to the size of the windows, we have needed to purchase custom made blinds and curtains which came at quite a large expense. Other than this, we felt we were able to gather all the information we needed from viewings and advice from the sales team.

What is the best feature of your home:

The floor plan layout is spacious and unique. A great deal of thought has been put in to the visuals of our home and we love the layout, windows and large pod area.

The different designs of homes gives a feel of a village rather than a housing estate

The different designs of homes gives a feel of a village rather than a housing estate full of the same homes. The on-site team of Scott the site manager and Amber the sales manager could not be more helpful professional and accommodating
And a credit to the company.

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

There are no shops or amenities yet my street is in early development but the street scene is really attractive with very little traffic noise

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

I should have asked when the building work would be completed around me so I would have been more prepared for all the construction traffic parking outside my house

What is the best feature of your home:

The Quality of build is excellent. The efficiency of the heating system the room sizes for a semi detached home and total standard of the build

Fantastic Place to Live

Ashby Gardens has been very well thought out in terms of layout. There are two entrances and exits to the development and it is very well managed. The grass is kept tidy and pavements are clean.

The houses themselves are very attractive and have been placed with great care and thought, so there aren’t many identical houses within close proximity. It gives the impression of uniqueness as you walk along the street.

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

Ashby Gardens has lots of nearby shops, including two large supermarkets and lots of food options.

Parking is ample (most houses have at least two off road parking spaces) though some households do have cars parked at the side of the road.

It’s a very quiet development that benefits from being very close to nature – you are surrounded by countryside and there’s lots of Green space on the development itself.

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

Minor thing but considering fibre to the premises is installed at the property, with both Openreach and Virgin Media, I would have liked to have known the average speeds we would get. It has improved since moving in, but at the start it was slower than our previously property.

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

The developer (Davidsons) fixed all snagging issues we have really quickly and the quality of the work was top notch!

Our wonderful home

When buying our Davidson’s home we were pleasantly surprised by the customer service. Nothing we asked if the staff was to much. The layout of the estate has been nicely designed with plenty of space and the houses aren’t to cramped in. All the houses are slightly different adding a bit of character.
The open spaces and gardens are well designed and are kept to a high standard meaning the estate feels homely.

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

We are in an ideal location in regards to shops with an Aldi just 3 minutes away. We are also between Nuneaton and Hinckley which both have a vast variety of shops and restaurants. Both towns also have a trains station with easy links to Coventry,Leicester and Birmingham.
Our street has ample parking and all the neighbours are lovely.

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

Trust the developers to sort any problems and not to worry about them

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

Any problems have been delt with quickly and effectively

5* home by Davidson’s

The development is designed brilliantly, the houses are spaced out and not crammed in like some new build sites. Each house has a sufficient driveway and a decent garden
The site managers have been so helpful and always on hand if you ever needed them for anything
The site also has plenty of greenery – balancing ponds and surrounding by fields and national forest
Davidson’s have taken the time to plant new trees around the edge of the estate

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

The area is brilliant in a lovely rural village with loads of off road walking, great for dog owners! As a first time buyer I feel very lucky to live in a village
The village is close to local towns and shops so not out of the way but get the bonus of living in a village

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

Mostly a positive experience. We purchased the house further down the build stage so we didn’t get to choose the spec of the house (kitchen, carpets etc) so we’d like to try and do that next time

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

They always responded to any issues we had and did always get fixed but there will be some issues (garden) that they refuse to fix as it is under their specification. They did always fix any issues inside the house in a timely manner though
