Very strong community an lovely neighbours. Close to B&M and Morrisons and of course KFC however not heard any noise from KFC at all and all customers and staff are respectful to the site. Only thing I’d mention is there was previously an issue with people driving quickly around into the drive through which was dangerous when other drivers were trying to leave the close however they have since put in junction marks which has helped.

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

Convenient location for transport links to Cardiff as located close to bus stops served by main bus routes and train stations. Not far to major supermarkets (under 2 minutes drive). Not far from a beautiful local park (Bryn Bach), leisure centre and half an hours drive to some beautiful spots in the Brecon Beacons national park. Downside is being located close to KFC as the traffic for the drive through adds an inconvenience on occasion to access the site, however, there are rumours KFC is moving.

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

Luckily we are located opposite the site offices and Lee the site manager frequently chats and has been helpful when we have had issues or concerns.
