There is also a thriving community with regular social events mainly held within the resident's lounge which is tastefully furnished and appointed.

The accommodation includes a private entrance hall, sitting room with commanding views towards Springbank Park and overlooking the well tended courtyard gardens, a larger than average naturally light fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, generous double bedroom with built in wardrobes and tiled bathroom/WC.
