St Edeyrns Village, CF3

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

The house is lovely and well built, management company could do more, some areas look untidy and areas dug up have not been re-laid with grass so looks awful. No bins on the development, thankfully there are a handful of volunteers that do litter picking that keeps the area clean. Area is in a good commuter location and has a nice family vibe

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

The amount of petty crime in the area could put people off. Easy to not be a victim though by being sensible, like locking back gates and making sure cars are locked.

Budgens in the village sells everything you need for your everyday essentials. The staff there are absolutely lovely. Plenty of parking although people park ridiculous at times which means the bus has trouble getting through the estate. Lately there’s been a number of burglaries in the village and break ins to cars. Neighbours look out for each other and bin collection is every Friday.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

I haven’t had to use building management team but as previously stated my neighbour has without any problems

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

The amount of crime in the area is rising. Breaks in to cars and buildings which makes me feel nervous. Security cameras in the village

Very good local shop and park as well as excellent transport links. Very quiet area and friendly neighbourhood.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Generally been very good at responding for small, ready to fix issues, but you do have to chase them a lot on bigger things

I wish I'd known not to bother paying Persimmon for turf in the garden - want worth the money and better of doing it ourselves. Other than that I was happy
