Landscaped Gardens
Squadron House boasts extensive landscaped gardens which wraps around the development. Paved pathways allow you to explore the grounds easily, whilst the ample seating provides the perfect place for you to sit and enjoy the gardens blossom and bloom throughout the seasons. All the communal grounds are fully maintained, however if you do enjoy gardening, there is always opportunities to get involved as much as you like. Many of our 'green-fingered' communities have raised beds where homeowners can grow their own produce and still keep a hand in their favourite pastime.
“I have enjoyed continuing to do the gardening by helping the on-site gardeners with the lovely, landscaped gardens we have.” – McCarthy Stone Homeowner
