OUR VIEW: “Bright and airy, this one bedroom apartment for the over-sixties is to the rear of the building which means it has a much quieter aspect than those that front onto the main road. Conveniently situated, just down the road from shops, and close to a couple of bus stops, the development is very popular with those people who want to remain independent, but who would appreciate the option of being able to use a lovely residents' sitting room, plus the peace of mind of having a 24-hour emergency call system, and an estate manager,” Martin G. Haigh
