Lots of local shops and pubs etc. Great local bus service. Very quiet area to live in with great neighbours. Should be a play area though,there is space for one! Roads are quite narrow resulting in issues with street parking.we love our house

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

i wish i had read reviews on larkfleet and wish i had done more to question the lack of parking.

What is the best feature of your home:

best feature is the location on the development, backs onto fields.

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

The development is 10 minutes walk from the center of the village, either via a leafy bridle-path and by a lovely beck or down a road which only has a foot path down one side of the road. There is a wide range of good shops, pubs, takeaways in the center of the village. The bus passes by the development every hour supposedly and as a result some walk into the center of the village to catch the hourly bus from there. The street I live on is a cul-de-sac. It has a T at the end so turning is quite easy. There is no ASB or traffic noise.

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

The developer informed all new home owners that the field to the left of the development as you enter, would be reverted to farm land. This was totally untrue and the same developer has put in plans which on appeal only have been passed for 33 new homes a lot of which are affordable homes all crammed into a small area which will cause parking problems for the development. In addition we now expect building on the development will not be completed for at least another 5 years.

What is the best feature of your home:

The design layout of our home is very good, In some areas the finish is better than our previous new home. The internal doors are more robust. The mortar used for the brick work is better. The look from outside the front is good. The gardens are a good size although perhaps to big for bungalows. The area is the reason for purchase and being a new home owner.

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

I would never buy from this developer ever again - Just being honest. This site has been sadly neglected. We don’t even have a road outside, 3 years later.

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

How poor the developer was

What is the best feature of your home:

The En-suite in our bedroom and the open kitchen diner.
