The development has also been designed to meet contemporary and future needs. From allowing for natural rainwater to be collected and recycled through reed beds to incorporating the latest solar power technologies, each house can be individually tailored to suit personal needs and contribute to a sustainable future.

The architects have designed homes which carefully balance sustainable ideals with high quality standards, enabling each home to have unique features and character, and yet share the same values of privacy, practicality, joy and appeal as idyllic year-round tranquil retreats with links to cultural stimulus, heritage and a sustainable future.
