The development has beautiful grounds and on-site parking for residents. There are communal areas for socialising, where regular activities such as quizzes and coffee mornings are held, for those who would like to get involved. There is a friendly on-site manager who is on hand to help and for extra peace of mind, there is a 24 hour emergency careline with pull chords in each room of the apartment. Residents also have the benefit of laundry facilities on the ground floor which is included within the service charges.
