The Pioneers, CV23

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

A lovely place to live, very peaceful (apart from some construction which is kept as discreet as possible), lots of green spaces. Easy access to the M1 & A5, and a short drive to the train station, making travelling easy. There is a lovely cafe at walking distance and a small but well stocked Co-op. Great place for families as there are several play areas. Good feeling of community, nice and helpful neighbours.

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

Overall very responsive, and they try to help with any issues with the landlord. They also quickly refer issues to maintenance when necessary.

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

Homes are pet-friendly but there is a maximum number of pets allowed depending on their size. We had to pay extra for our second dog (upon payment of deposit/first rent) then by the time we moved we had lost one of them and had to keep paying the extra amount for the whole year. For anyone moving to a newer part of the development, do look at the surrounding area and how much construction is taking place near the home.

We have just moved in. So far it has been excellent. The roads are quiet and plenty of open spaces and wildflower gardens and paths to have a walk or walk your pets. We are a family of 3 and the local children knocked on our door with a big welcome which was very nice to see. There is a new play park opened and they told us all about it. Overall a quiet, clean location with good amenities.

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

Most internal problems that could be fixed immediately have been completed. Others maintenance jobs for the garden fence for example have been scheduled.

We confused the Ashlawn development with Houlton/Pioneers, the latter being a further distance from Rugby schools. It would be good to have known bus routes.

We have just moved in this week. The house is well built and designed with everyday living in mind. Clean , bright and tastefully decorated. Local amenities are great! Joe has been wonderful. We sold our house and had lots of stressful moments but throughout it all Joe was the one person that made everything straight forward for us! We needed to rent storage as no properties have a garage. I think this company have really got it right ! It’s very obvious they care about their customers and they want them to have a good lifestyle . Thankyou
