I'm viewing a flat there tomorrow, was wondering what its like ??????

Is the gym any good ??

I've lived there for 6 months now and love it. It's in a pretty bleak bit of town, but there's some great pubs (if you're into real ale), Tesco's is just over the road, it's right near the tram, and the flats are really nice.

I've noticed an increase in pay-ladies since the summer, which isn't so nice. I guess they got 'moved on' from where-ever they were working before and there's usually one or two hanging around Alama Street (2 or 3 minutes walk away from Cornish Place).

It's a quiet development with no nuisance neighbours (well, none that I've noticed). It's mainly full of young folks who keep themselves to themselves, as the cliche goes.

The gym is pretty good - nothing flashy and the equipment is fairly basic, but it's really quiet. Kinda like having your own personal gym, to be honest. It's got a treadmill, crummy cross-trainer, a couple of bikes, a rower, 5 different weight machine thingys, some free-weights too, and some other assorted crap that I don't have names for. The flats on the river are best, of course, as some of them look out onto a road on one side, and the car park on the other.

The parking spaces are all allocated to flats, but there's always space on the road out the front of the building in the evenings. Takes 10-15 minutes to walk to the city centre, about 20 to get to the station
