From the moment of my first visit
From the moment of my first visit, I was greeted by Sammy-Jo, and we looked at properties, she was so welcoming, helpful and informative, and I have decided to purchase a property, she has kept in contact with updated information and is an asset to your company. Kind Regards Dave West

Angel the agent made us feel very confortable and she explained everything I needed to know, even if she had to repeat herself she was very patient and kind and knowledgeable. The place is so lovely and modern. I love what they build there and it's totally away from the main road with an amazing field at the back and a lovely court with lots of plant. Visiting the appartement and being guided through by Angel was a great experience. I really enjoyed it.
Hi Florence, Thank you for your wonderful review. We're delighted to hear that Angel made you feel so comfortable and supported throughout your visit. It's great to know you enjoyed the development and appreciated the surroundings, as well as Angel's patience, knowledge and friendly approach. We'll be sure to share your kind feedback with her. We wish you all the best on your home-buying journey. Kind Regards, Sarah Countryside Homes

A Traumatic Nightmare: 200+ Defects, Deceptive Sales, and Zero Accountability
If you are considering buying a property at Fletton Folly (or any Countryside Homes / Vistry Group development), please read this and protect yourself. My experience, from the deceptive sales process to the ongoing aftercare, has been a nightmare. Furthermore, I know that every house on our street (Hay Lake Crescent) is experiencing severe problems, this is a site-wide failure of quality control, not an isolated incident.
Hi RM, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about the issues you have experienced with your home and the frustration this has caused. We understand how disappointing this must be, particularly given the concerns you have raised regarding the quality of the property, the sales process and your ongoing customer care experience. We take all customer feedback seriously and are committed to resolving issues wherever possible. We understand that members of our team have been in contact regarding your concerns and will continue to work with you to review the outstanding matters. Thank you for bringing these issues to our attention. We appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns and improve your experience with us. Kind regards, Sarah Countryside Homes

Great Homes and Sales Advisor
I recently visited the Countryside Homes development, The Colleys in Grantham. immediately upon entering the development you can see how nice their houses are. I viewed a few plots there and the one apparent feature in the homes are the lovely vaulted ceilings in the kitchens. Unfortunately after working out distances to get to my family etc I couldn't go ahead. Grantham is a great area which has an abundance of amenities and has get transport links to the A1
Hi Karen, We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your positive experience with us. We are delighted to hear you enjoyed viewing our homes and their unique features, especially the vaulted ceilings. It's understandable that location can be a deciding factor, and we appreciate your kind words about the area's amenities and transport links. We are also very pleased to know that our sales advisor provided professional and friendly service. Your feedback is invaluable to us. Kind Regards, Sarah Countryside Homes

Very poor build and customer service
Well where do I start

We fully appreciate the frustration and inconvenience this has caused.

We understand that you have raised a formal complaint, which is currently being reviewed. A full response will be provided in accordance with our complaint’s procedure. Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention, and for your patience while we work to address your concerns. Kind Regards, Sarah Countryside Homes

Buyer Beware
Bought a new build on Rivers Edge, Warrington, this year. Sales answered all my questions made me feel at ease with what i was buying. Went to look at the house at least twice. There were definite issues that were noted before i moved in. Patio door was catching, the utility door was scraping the floor and a kitchen drawer looked to be damaged and needed to be replaced. Given the amount of time between walking around, making a decision to reserving and going through the legal processes only 1 issue was fixed; utility door. I later found as i cleaned that the drawer was just dirty, yet the patio door was a big issue. Not my first new build, yet this was the worst new build i had bought. Whoever had signed off this house, hadn't done their job properly, i wondered whether he/she signed off the wrong house or did he/she go round blindfolded OR even worse this is the standard of a Countryside built house. I listed my snagging as soon as i was able. Work was allocated to subcontractors. 2 of which had deadlines that passed, i followed up with Customer Services and heard nothing. Followed up again recently and will continue to follow up. Why isnt Customer Services following up with the Sub Contractor if they are aware of these snagging deadlines.
Hi Catherine, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback regarding your experience at Rivers Edge. It's encouraging to hear that you felt supported by our Sales team during the early stages of your journey. However, it's clear that your experience following reservation and moving into your home has fallen far short of the expectations you rightly had. You have raised a number of concerns relating to the quality of workmanship, outstanding snagging items, communication from our Customer Service team, and the handling of issues affecting the security and functionality of your home. We appreciate how disappointing it must be to encounter ongoing defects while trying to settle into a new property, particularly when you feel that concerns are not being addressed within the timescales you were given. The examples you have provided, including the patio doors, external doors, balcony door, gate, internal finishes, cleanliness of the property, and the status of outstanding remedial works, are all matters that should be reviewed thoroughly. We also recognise the frustration caused when updates are not provided and when communication does not meet the standard you expect during the aftercare process. Thank you again for bringing these matters to our attention. Feedback of this nature is invaluable in helping us identify where improvements are needed and ensuring concerns are addressed appropriately Kind Regards, Sarah Countryside Homes

Bought a shared ownership property through local housing association developer is Countryside homes and rectifying snagging issues is at their discretion.
Hi Samantha, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. The concerns you've raised around the snagging process, communication before completion and the support you've received since moving into your home are clearly significant, and we appreciate you setting them out in such detail. We recognise how disappointing it must be to feel that issues discussed during your pre-completion walkthrough were not recorded in the level of detail you expected, particularly when you relied on the guidance provided when making your purchase. We also understand your frustration regarding the differences between the expectations set before completion and your experience after moving in. We take all customer feedback seriously, especially where it relates to the quality of our homes, our aftercare process and the support provided to customers with additional needs. The points you've raised have been shared with the relevant teams so they can review the circumstances surrounding your case and the concerns you've highlighted about the recording and assessment of snagging items. We are committed to understanding where things may not have met expectations and to ensuring customers receive clear and consistent communication throughout their homebuying journey. A member of the team will be in contact to review the matters you've raised and discuss your concerns further. Thank you again for your feedback. It is valuable in helping us identify where improvements can be made to both our processes and the overall customer experience. Kind Regards, Sarah Countryside Homes

The Gateway, Bexhill
**UPDATED REVIEW 6/8/26**
**Update** : Hi John, We're really pleased to hear that Alfie and Martin were able to resolve the outstanding items for you and provide the support you needed. It's encouraging to know that, once communication channels were clarified, the bath panel, HIU cover and kitchen kickboards could all be completed in one visit. We're especially grateful for your kind words about Alfie. He takes great pride in helping our customers and will be delighted to hear that his professionalism, communication and understanding helped ease the stress and uncertainty you had been experiencing. Thank you again for sharing your experience. We wish you all the very best in your new home and hope you enjoy it for many years to come. Hi John, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're concerned to read about the issues you've highlighted, particularly where outstanding items which had been discussed prior to completion were still unresolved when you moved into your new home. We appreciate how frustrating it must have been to feel that you were having to chase for updates, and we recognise the disappointment this can cause at what should be an exciting time. It's also concerning to hear about the specific defects you've mentioned, especially those that you feel present a safety risk within your home. We've shared the details of your feedback with our Regional Customer Service team and the build team for review. This will allow the relevant teams to look into the matters you've raised and ensure they have a clear understanding of your experience. Thank you again for bringing these matters to our attention. Customer feedback plays an important role in helping us improve both our homes and the service we provide. Kind Regards Sarah Countryside Homes

We moved in to a countryside property…
We moved in to a countryside property in June 2025 in Warrington. The roads are still unfinished as are the pavements outside. You cannot get through to anyone, multiple calls and emails completely unanswered. It is an utter disgrace that you pay high prices and receive this level of service. We still have outstanding snags too but trying to get this sorted is completely impossible. Avoid this company at all costs!
Hi Izzy, Thank you for sharing your feedback. It's clear that your experience since moving into your home has fallen short of the standards you expected, particularly with the unfinished roads and pavements, ongoing snagging issues, and the difficulty you've encountered when trying to get updates. We recognise how disappointing it must be to still be waiting for progress on these matters more than a year after moving in. Communication is an important part of the customer experience, and it's concerning to hear that your calls and emails have gone unanswered. Your comments have been noted and will be shared with the relevant teams so that the concerns you've raised around both the outstanding works and customer communication can be reviewed. Feedback such as yours is important in highlighting where improvements are needed, and we appreciate you taking the time to bring these issues to our attention. Kind Regards, Sarah Countryside Homes

A company that goes above and beyond the expectations
This is the third new build property I’ve purchased and the level of service has been unbelievable. Sophie at Newsam Green helped get us a fantastic deal on our new home. Tara our Sales Negotiator was amazing - she really went above and beyond to help get us in, due to issues with the sale of our property. And the house itself - I love it, we really couldn’t be happier! And a great after sales service.
Hi KMB, We are absolutely thrilled to hear about your wonderful experience! It's fantastic to know that our team provided exceptional service and helped you secure your dream home. We're delighted that you love your new house and that our after-sales support has met your expectations. Kind Regards, Sarah Countryside Homes
