I recently spent a lovely day in the vibrant Georgian market town of Marlow, in Buckinghamshire. Marlow is only 20 minutes by car from our very own Ferndale Park. If you fancy a day out by the River Thames, I highly recommend this fashionable, riverside hot spot. Historic Marlow near Ferndale Park I took the A404 towards High Wycombe, from M4 junction 8 and drove [...]
If you're heading to the South Coast for a few days, a great morning stop off is at Liberty's Owl, Raptor and Reptile Centre, near Ringwood. It is located just off the M27/A31 which can be easily navigated back to, to be able to continue with your journey hassle free. Birds of Prey, Reptiles and much more... I went here recently with my 4 year [...]
A short walk to start with... If you fancy a stroll and a bit of time gazing out into the river, about a mile and a half from Ferndale Park, is Summerleaze Footbridge. You turn left out of the park and head across Windsor Road, down Monkey Island Lane until at the fork for Bray Lake you bear right onto a wide gravel lane. After a while, [...]
If you have a keen interest in the history of the British Military, then a visit to the Royal Logistic Corps Museum may be worth a trip. Our Managing Director, Michael and his friend John (a lifelong history teacher) recently visited the museum and were kind enough to share their experience with us. The museum located in Deepcut, Frimley is just a short journey from Cavendish Park. It [...]

Our house is full of questions at the moment, as you can imagine. What is Father Christmas doing now? Will he definitely remember the way to our house? Can the reindeer fly all year, or is it just on Christmas Eve? What does Father Christmas think of the men who dress up as him and pretend? Does Rudolph's nose really actually glow, or is that bit of it, more [...]
Having recently joined Greenfords, I have been developing my role and taking on some of the company's work on the social media and marketing side of the business. The first project that I've had sole responsibility for working on is the sponsorship of Dorking Children's Allotment. I love this project as it captures, in essence, what the word 'community' is all about and I can especially relate to [...]
Over the last few months, there's been a fair bit of excitement here, preparing to sell a couple of homes at Cavendish Park, near Camberley for the first time in years! - – Please note: only one home still available to purchase as of late August 2014 – - We had two 1995 Omar Oulton's, in very nice condition, to refurbish and redecorate, and prepare to put on [...]
So, today was a beautiful day. I was pretty relieved about that, because as part of our plan to build up the residents’ point of view part of the website, I had arranged to have one of our Blackbushe Park residents (and her guest) road-test a day out in Farnham. They went for a look around Farnham Castle, and then for afternoon tea at The Bush Hotel. The [...]
With all this glorious weather, I was thinking about the importance of being able to drop everything and get out there and enjoy the sunshine. Some of the advantages of living in a park home, on a smart park home estate, with a private road, are obvious. Residents benefit from the security of having neighbours close by, but enjoy the privacy of living in a completely [...]
