Frobisher Road, Ashton

"It’s such a lovely street, with incredibly friendly neighbours, many of whom have become good friends. It’s difficult to walk down the road without stopping to talk to someone! We especially enjoy spending time in the garden and appreciate being able to see wildlife such as hedgehogs while living in the city. The location is great, being just a short walk from North Street and its amenities, which we use most days, as well as being so close to green spaces such as Ashton Court. We’ve loved living here, and it has been a wonderful family home for us."
