Lovely countryside location, peaceful and very quiet. The village is small and some things are a bit of a drive away due to the rural location but it depends what you’re looking for.

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

Yes we’ve had issues sorted despite having to chase them up and being proactive.

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

The internet wasn’t set up and we moved in without the white box being installed in order to get broadband which was quite frustrating.

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

there is very little to choose from with one local shop and one local public house. however there is a local supermarket 12 mins away in the car. the area is quiet although there is no control over the playing area for children, so in affect cars do get damaged with balls and kids bikes. transport links to other areas is somewhat limited, so a car and being able to drive is advantageous. bin collections are pretty regular but do get mixed up as to when they're collected as they're not always on the days that they're meant to be. overall i still recommend the area and the homes.

Crich is a lovely village and place to live.

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

An uphill struggle, resolved very slowly. Only interested in £ being paid and getting the next house built.

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

We only had 10 minutes to look and report any faults, while personnel hovered outside, before moving in. Allow yourself at least 2/3 hours.

Crich is a lovely village well served with amenities. It is on a bus route and our development is quiet with plenty of parking though the village centre is often quite busy.

It has been a constant battle to get anything done after we moved in.

I wish we had known what a poor company Harron Homes were. We were promised a luxury home which could not be further from the truth. No one from Harron Homes is interested in you after you have moved in.
