Only that, as of the time of writing the closest shops are on the next estate over (Shenley Brook End) although it's a short walk and an even shorter drive so it's really a massive issue.

The location is very good, close to a lot of shops within walking and riving distance. We just wish that more local businesses would move in soon. It would be lovely to have a cafe within 5 mins walks

The building management response very quickly and with a lot of patience.

Not really. Most of the info we need were on the pack and anything we don't need was good surprises anyway
