Resident Stories

It has been two and a half years since we moved into Shenley Wood. We found our apartment here with the help of the council and I love it, it’s the best thing that happened to me. I love everything about this place.

Resident Stories

Every Friday night we meet at one of our apartments and toast to friendship. We then enjoy a G&T and fish and chip Friday night and come here to enjoy the Piazza. We absolutely love it!

Resident Stories

I used to be a warden for the elderly for over 20 years so you could say I am a people person. For my 80th birthday the village threw me a party, I could not believe it, 80 to 90 residents ended up showing up for me. There were even daffodil bulbs at my party for everyone.
