Most windows have fully functional shutters. Services include VirginMedia cable, gas central heating/water, with a separate hot water tank. The rear garden has a secure side entrance for bin access, two patio areas, a garden shed, rainwater tank and an outside tap.

The popular Cameron Toll Centre also offers a selection of high-street shops and a Sainsbury's superstore.
