Hoping to Move to Cove

[Mr Tidy]

Well I just had an offer accepted on a property on the Western side of Cove near the Plough and Horses.

It's not necessarily where I would have chosen but the property is ideal and it's within budget so I guess the location may be the compromise, although I've visited a few times and it seems OK.

Having lived in Bracknell Forest since 2005 I have some knowledge of the area as my nearest B & Q, Morrisons, Asda, Furniture Village and Oak Furnitureland were all in Farnborough! And when I was working in Guildford in the late 80s (living in Ash) I did visit my employer's site in Southwood a few times.

But I have no detailed knowledge of the area as one to live in, so any feedback would be much appreciated.

[Mr Tidy]

Just wondering if there tends to be any sort of community feel/neighbourliness. Do local people speak to each other or just go about their own business?

Is there any anti-social behaviour or other things to look out for?

Thanks.

I was on a cul de sac off Southwood Rd towards Morrisons. Neighbours were all fine. Mine used to bring my bins back and let me use their brown garden bin. All seemed quite normal. I didn't notice any anti social behaviour. Sometimes you heard the odd car practising their drifting on some of the roundabouts in the distance Easy access to the canal, fleet pond area and various park Heathlands.

Thanks.

That sounds fine - I'm used to seeing the results of doughnut practice in Bracknell Forest, although never near enough to hear it!

Thanks for all the replies.

I thought it seemed like a decent area and what you've said seems to back that up.

Just hoping the moving process goes smoothly now - I'll finally have a garage again!
