Rectory Woods

I have recently completed on a property on the Rectory Woods estate. From our initial visit to Claire in the sales office when we were considering reserving our first new build, through to completing on our home 6 months later, she has been exceptional in her support. Claire has been able to answer any of our questions and has always been on hand supporting us through the process. She provided us with a really personalised service and made us feel confident in Wain Homes. Claire is an asset to rectory woods and I feel that she has had a real impact on our smooth sale.
Following this, Sean and Alex have supported us since moving into the property. They have both been extremely knowledgeable and supportive with any issues we have had, no matter how small.
Alex has regularly checked in with us and given updates. Sean is very responsive to any issues and prompt in getting a snags sorted. They are both friendly around the site and will give a wave as we drive past.
Overall, a very good service from the whole team at Rectory Woods.

Excellent build, design, style

Went to the wrong house build site, so glad we did, as bought a Horizon Wain Hawthorne home 6 months ago.
We have previously bought 3 new builds, in our view this home is of a far better quality, loved the design, style, fixtures and fittings, makes use of all the space.

The build site is very respectful of the occupants, with little or no disruption, while the build is progressing.

Darren the sales manager is very helpful, friendly, professional, if there was anything he wasn't sure of he didn't hesitate to help.

Have to give a shout out to Andy the site manager, BRILLIANT any snagging issues, Andy was on top of it, nothing to much trouble, always available, have a problem he is there sorting it.

If moving again would definitely consider buying another wain Home

Great team over at Waterside Meadows

The team over at Waterside Meadows have been fantastic. Michael who works in the office has kept us up to date with the process and Jason who runs the site has helped answer any build related questions. I would strongly recommend and both individuals have been key to the success of our purchase.

Kingsley Manor

From our first visit to the sales office we knew this was were we wanted to live. Ashley is fantastic and made the whole process seamless, he didn’t mind chasing for updates to get the purchase through on time and kept us informed all the way. Ashley has continued to check in and make sure everything is going well, he really is a credit to Wain Homes.

We have had a couple of snags, nothing major, but the team respond instantly, nobody knows what is going to happen in a new build house until someone actually lives in it!

We have only been here two weeks but we love living here already.

Thank you to the whole team at Kingsley Manor, we cannot wait to start our new life here.

Kingsley Manor - Review

We are absolutely delighted with our new build home at Kingsley Manor by Wain Homes. From start to finish, the entire process has been smooth and seamless, thanks in large part to Ashley in the sales office. He has been fantastic throughout—always helpful, responsive, and supportive, making what can often be a stressful experience feel easy and enjoyable.

On site, Ian and Danny have also been brilliant. They’ve been attentive and quick to address a few minor snags, none of which have impacted our day-to-day living. It’s reassuring to know they genuinely care about making sure everything is just right.

We truly love living here already—the house feels like home, and the development itself is a great place to be. We’re especially looking forward to enjoying everything even more in the summer months.

A big thank you to the whole team at Wain Homes for delivering such a positive experience!

The bungalow we bought was built to a high standard

The bungalow we bought was built to a high standard. There were a few minor things but were rectified straight away. The site staff have been really helpful and gone out off their way to help residents settle into their new build homes.
