What our customers say
Driving past one day on his daily commute, George noticed Marleigh Park and was drawn to its prime location just outside Cambridge’s bustling centre.
George commented: “I was renting for two years in Cambridge and became overwhelmed by how expensive and challenging the area’s rental market could be. Having settled into my new job just outside the city, I knew the time was right to find my own place. I really love styling and decorating, so I was excited by this, as you are very limited with a rental property.
