Where families flourish - 'It felt like home from the start'

Parikshit and Payal didn’t begin their property search in Essex. IT and marketing professional Parikshit reveals: “Once we realised that Newport was just an hour from London, and that Hollymead Square was just a five-minute walk from the station, so ideal for commuting, we decided to take a look. 

We were thrilled to discover how much we could get for our money there and impressed by the high-quality of the homes. The welcoming and friendly atmosphere of both the Hollymead Square neighbourhood and the village made it feel like home from the start."
