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.

Shopwycke Lake is located close to the city of Chichester, and benefits from a picturesque setting, in close proximity to the city centre. The area is very popular with commuters as it is close to both the A27 and also to the mainline station.

The development generally looks very nice and the layout seems good. The lack of progress of finishing facilities is incredible. Basically nothing is complete. Parks not open, sports pavilion not finished, no shops, no bridge over A27 open and no community center open. Communication about when things will be finished is non existent. Staff are useless when requesting repairs.

Great location and value for money. Easy access to Chichester town and the A27. Nice community and has a safe feel. Only disappointing part were some slight issues with the entrance to our flat door. However aftercare were great at getting resolved. Access to a green space, however this isn’t available just yet. This is a little disappointing.

Design is very good with the lay out of the housing and the lake is a very nice feature. Some of the larger houses gardens are very overlooked. The slow development is the sports field etc is frustrating and children's park which has been built for some time now is still fenced off as well as being rather small.

The development is great, only 10-15 drive from the town centre where there are lots of nice restaurants and pubs, only frustration is no walk way over the main road to get to local food shops yet. Hoping this gets built by end of the year. Also there is only one way on and off the site which is frustrating. Again hopefully this will be rectified soon.

Already covered - design of development excellent except not enough visitor parking, therefore people insist on parking right outside our lounge window. Cars clog up the access roads which could cause problems if a fire engine needs to get to any fire on the development
