TrustpilotThe best move I ever made
The best move I ever made. The other homeowners are so friendly and the apartments are amazing. There's a great range of activities to get involved in and the onsite bistro is the perfect place to meet up and enjoy some lovely refreshments. Just off there for lunch now!

TrustpilotLovely properties, terrible 'event' fees....
I have a relative in the Platinum Skies Sherborne development. Whilst their flat is lovely and they are very happy there, the other residents are wonderful and the staff very helpful and friendly, there are significant problems with the shared ownership/management aspect. PS transferred management to FirstPort (see their reviews!) which is another subject, but any prospective purchaser should very carefully read the extremely small print regarding so-called event fees (i.e. when someone moves or dies). PS charge 10% of the FULL value of the property, NOT just on the part owned by the resident. This can amount to many thousands of pounds and is iniquitous. The company are benefitting from someone's death, and to even charge this fee, let alone 10% of the FULL value is appalling. Flats in particular are not selling (and the relatives have to pay full rent until the property is sold), and local estate agents won't touch them. Beware anyone thinking of buying a Platinum Skies property....

I have been the chef of Taunton (quantock house) for 6 months and had the most amazing review and feedback from our residents…however there are issues with the management poor standards of compliance with health and safety over food storage as well as abusive attitude.

GoogleVisiting family who have recently moved in what a lovely place. My aunt and uncles apartment was a good size very well fitted out. We had lunch in the Bistro on site and that was very good.

;They may appear affordable when you first move in - the sting in the tale is that after 10 years - the service charge could well be what a person will received as a State Pension approx. 8,500/9,000 pounds, pus the cost of ground rent, car parking space and the biggest sting that the value of the flat could well be upto 100,000 pounds LESS than what you paid for it - all the extra luxuries you get
