We believe the best information about a residential development comes from the people living there. Owners and tenants have a lot of useful information to share with their prospective neighbours, not just on the property itself and its locality, but also on the developer and the building’s management.

The buildings are well planned and spacious. The estate is not yet complete so we can’t comment on management yet, water and internet connections are good and fast. COVID has delayed site completion but generally Tilia have been quick to respond to any issues.

The development is well designed with some green open spaces and houses are not crammed in. Bought an Ingleton and pleased with house layout and finish. Small number of snagging issues on completion were rectified quickly and without question. Site managers were very helpful and ensured we were happy with work carried out. Good range of tiles/ kitchen cupboards and worktops/ flooring and happy with quality of these after 6 months.

I cannot fault the design of my property and the estate. For snagging problems you have to make sure you keep on top of everything being corrected. Certain elements in my property were blamed on builders no longer working for the developer instead of just being rectified and in the end I resolved some of these myself as I was left without the use of the bath and shower for a month. The plumber and electrician I have met have been extremely helpful and polite when I have had any issues.

The design of the development was the initial thing that drew me to this location . Good choice of house designs with a range of external finishes & spacious parking facilities (in marked contrast to most other new developments). Close to all local amenities. Excellent sales & construction management team a real bonus .

The design isn't the greatest such as entering your back garden via your livingroom or having to walk the full way round your house to hang your washing out. The main bathroom is rather small for a four bed house.
