VENDOR COMMENTS

We have loved living at 1 Oakridge for the past 9 years. It has been a super family home whilst the children were young. They were able to walk to the village school and, as teenagers, the buses to Newent Community School and to the grammar schools in Gloucester leave from just around the corner. Our house is known as 'the one that sits on its own' because the house stands proudly with views across Gloucester and the River Severn to Robinswood Hill on a clear day. In the winter you can see Gloucester Cathedral in the distance, and every morning when I get up I take in the view of the Old Rectory and Highnam Church Spire.

Highnam is a fantastic community to live in and this was particularly evident during Covid, with everyone helping each other. There is always something going on and the monthly Village Link keeps us up to date on the activities of all the local groups for both adults and children.
