Pros

A happy place to live you can take part in as many different things as you wish and meet up with people to spend time with if you want.

Cons

Some of the maintenance is a bit slow to happen and done a bit piece meal instead of all at once.

Since the physically fit requirement has been dropped the village is becoming a rest home and has lost a lot of its vibrancy.

"A friendly community"

Pros

It is a friendly village, with many activities, most organised by residents. There is usually a prompt response to maintenance requests. There are attractive community facilities including a cafe, a bar, a gym, a number of meeting rooms and a large activities area. These have been recently renovated. Probably because it is an older village, it is spacious, with many gardens. It is close to public transport, an emergency medical centre, a church and a small shopping centre.

Cons

The village is over 30 years old and is requiring continual maintenance. Financially it might not be the wisest investment. Although there is a first aider on duty 24 hours to respond to emergency calls, the nursing service is very limited.
