After 28 years in the same property, Barbara was getting tired of the maintenance and garden upkeep. Her daughter, who lives locally in Lyndhurst, suggested she take a look at Lyndhurst Park.
"I got to the stage with the bungalow where I was getting fed up with the maintenance and the garden and all those sorts of things. So when my daughter told me to take a look at Lyndhurst Park, I knew quite quickly it would suit me perfectly."
The practical benefits were immediately clear. "A member of the team said, 'You've got as much room here in the flat as you have in the bungalow,' which I have. So I actually wasn't losing any floor space."
Barbara particularly loves the location. ""There's everything on my doorstep - the doctors, the chemists, Tesco's, Co-op, all the pubs, the restaurants, it's all there. There's a bus stop right outside the door, either going into Southampton or to Lymington.""
For Barbara, the move has given her exactly what she was looking for - low-maintenance living with everything on the doorstep."
