Royate Hill, Eastville

'Royate Hill is in a great location, with Eastville Park & Royate Hill Nature Reserve in sight, and the cycle track & green bank cemetery close by. We love the courtyard garden and have had happy meals out there, plus we've put a lot into making the home as energy efficient and maintenance free as possible with underfloor and external and internal wall insulation, re-doing the insulation in the slopes roofs, new insulating roof felt and tiles.'
