Residents celebrate the opening of three play areas
We are celebrating the opening of new play areas at three of our developments in Kent.The play areas, located at Oakapple Place in Barming, Wellington Paddocks in Deal and St Augustine’s Place in Herne Bay, have all been named by residents who were invited to a special event to mark their openings.
Anna Lee, a resident at St Augustine’s Place, named ‘Primrose Park’, ‘Paddocks Park’ was the winning suggestion by Jordan and Annabelle Moores of Wellington Paddocks and ‘Little Apples’ was the name put forward for Oakapple Place by Rebecca Morin.
Jordan and Annabelle Moores, said: "It’s exciting to have played a part in naming the new play area. We chose ‘Paddocks Park’ because we felt it was a memorable and fitting name, and we can’t wait to see families enjoying it."
Jason Stokes, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey South East, said: “We are thrilled to officially open these new play areas, which have been designed with children and families in mind. It was wonderful to invite residents to get involved in the naming process, and we hope that residents, and the wider community, will enjoy using the space, getting outdoors and having fun for years to come!”

A dream come true: Living at Oakapple Place
In search of a quieter neighbourhood, and an easier commute, Oakapple Place was the perfect location for Bella and her toy poodle cross, Mr Pickles. She said: "As I work in Barming, I had been looking at several new developments in the area but nothing offered everything I was looking for. When I came across Oakapple Place I was instantly drawn to the area's peacefulness and knew it was where I wanted to live.”
Bella fell in love with the four bedroom Trusdale house type. With a garage and utility room, it ticked off everything on her wish list. Bella said: "I love the large living area and open plan kitchen diner; it’s perfect for hosting as I can prepare a meal while socialising with family and friends. Having a separate utility room is a real luxury too and it’s great for extra storage.
“The self-contained main bedroom and en-suite is my favourite space, perfect to relax and unwind. One of my best decisions has been to convert the spare room into a gym as I can now conveniently fit in my workouts within the comfort of my home.”
Navigating the buying process was a breeze for Bella, thanks to the guidance and support provided by the sales team. Bella said: “The process of buying with Taylor Wimpey was easy. The team guided me throughout the entire process, made it clear what was needed at each step and were always on hand to answer my questions.”
Now settled into her new home at Oakapple Place, Bella enjoys the community feel of the development. She said: "I really enjoy taking leisurely walks with Mr Pickles around the neighbourhood; it has become a cherished part of my daily routine. Oakapple Place truly feels like home.”
