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

There's an Aldi within a short walk but there's a fence so you have to walk a long way around instead of direct. There's also an Italian restaurant next to Aldi. There's a bus stop right outside.

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

The issues above have not been fixed however I recently had a problem with my windows and Steve fixed it immediately.

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

I can't think of anything but the social life is very good. You can be as involved as you wish or not if you prefer.

My health confines me to the inside of Limestone View, but I lived in the area from 1988 and know it is a nice area.

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

The only problems have been with shower drainage, and ingress of water into the bathroom light from above. Both of these were sorted out promptly.

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

Development is a 5 minute walk from the village centre where there is a limited range of shops, including a Co-op and an excellent Hotel, the Royal Oak. The Hotel has a very good restaurant and has several bedrooms. There are a couple of bars in the village. There is a bus stop a few yards from the Development with a half hourly service to both Middlesbrough and Stokesley. These is also a less regular service to Saltburn and Northallerton The village has a railway station on the Whitby line, but this is about a mile away and has a poor service.

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

Very few issues since we moved here some 15 months ago. Anything that has been raised has been dealt with, not always as fast as it could be, but this has been more to do with the developer rather than local management who have been very helpful

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

Didn't realise we would be among the younger people living here, surprised to find so many people that are much older than us, no doubt because of the extra care facilities on offer. Have always mixed with young people and this was something that we didn't consider. However, the oldies are lovely!

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

Shops and medical very close with pubs and restaurants also. Lots of open spaces and nature tree growth that shields the property from road noise and pollution.

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

Just slow draining sinks. All else very pleasing. I love the overall design.

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

Road can be difficult to cross at peak times and there’s only pavement on one side It gets quite narrow in places with cars occasionally mounting the pavement. Thought needs to given to slowing traffic speed.
