Great range of facilities very close, love the play parks for the kids and love hearing the birds in the morning! We leave on the main road through the estate a few noisy drains when cars drive over them but apart from that it’s been great!

We had no WiFi when we moved in, it turned out we had the wrong hub but once this eventually was established, we were up and running the next day.

Stairs are lovely and wide and made moving furniture in a breeze! Wish we had noticed the Lampost outside when we picked out plot! Very bright and on all night but nothing a blackout blind on the landing hasn’t sorted.
