There are also regular traditional town markets. Places of interest in the local area are varied, with John Coles Park, the museum and Heritage Centre and Chippenham folk festival are just a few examples.

It’s so easy to make new friends and to lead a busy and fulfilled life at Waterford Place; there are always plenty of regular activities to choose from including; coffee mornings, fitness classes, games and quiz nights, fish and chip supper evenings, themed events. Whilst there is something for everyone there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners can join in or remain as private as they wish.

Additionally, the apartments are equipped with a 24-hour emergency call system. All the external property maintenance including gardening and window cleaning is taken care of.
