I've already alluded to the situation with poor planning design and the willingness of councils to pass such plans in my previous answer. The estate design lacks forethought, in that many households have two vehicles, and sometimes a company works van. The roads are narrow with few pavements for pedestrians. The number of vehicles parked in dangerous and selfish places is increasing. People do not consider where their vehicle will be parked when buying or renting a property. A number of people drive far too swiftly along the estate roads, and this adds to the noise, at various times during the day. I cannot comment on building/property management, other than some buildings under housing management responsibility are becoming shabby and uncared for, because of lack of responsibility for their own surroundings by some tenants. It's also true that some owners also have no pride in their own surroundings. I anticipated a nicer feel to the Estate, but a great deal of the current situation is due to a decline in social standards and behaviour, coupled with selfishness, and lack of respect for others. Of course this is nationwide, and global.

The design is well layed out development consisting of bovis homes and linden homes. The new property’s have a spacious open planed interior with a modern design. There is a nice variety of houses including 2, 3, and four bedroom houses and also multiple blocks of flats.

I have lived on the Cloakham Lawn development for just over 5 years, and on the whole I am happy with the design and layout of my home. Some of the fixtures and fittings aren't of the best quality, and there have been some issues with the drainage system on the estate. As a shared ownership resident, I have been very happy with the property management company for my home, though there are a number of different housing associations managing different properties on the estate, so I can only speak for my own home.

I don't think the house is built very well we had lods of problems when we move in but Yarlington was very good at sorting it out very quick and friendly, the roads around my area is narrow and because of the parking it difficult to see coming out of our car park and were we live it not very well designed if you want to walk towards the town at you got to walk up the road and come back on yourself to get out of the estate ( I have mobility problems)

Design is good, a nice mix of properties. Not enough parking as always in new developments, but a good community feel. We need more facilities for dog walkers, children's play areas, community spaces ie cafe maybe, and a much better relationship with the management team. But good overall.
