A personal message from the previous owner's family:
'There were several reasons why this apartment in Chamomile Gardens stood out from the other properties for sale.

The apartment had large windows with sunny views over the communal gardens and was large enough to take the 3-piece suite.

The kitchen and bathroom were easy to access with the walking aid, and the emergency care on site was reassuring.

Having been living isolated for several years the attraction of Mum being in a beautiful complex with lots of social contact was compelling.

Activities put on by the complex, including Karaoke and armchair exercises, were fun, and friendships were soon made with other residents in the lounges and hobbies room.

The laundry room was great as using the free driers meant no damp washing cluttering up the flat.

It was lovely for her to walk around the gardens with a new friend and her dog each day and sit with friends in the lounge.

Another bonus point was having the swimming pool and local takeaways just over the road.'
