The sales team were very professional and a delight to deal with. The presentation by David was first class and every question was answered to my satisfaction. We are very interested in buying one of the larger homes in particular one of the customised ones and considering all of our options at the moment.

Extremely helpful lady
Extremely helpful lady, gave me all the information about the site and showed me round the 3 bed show home, which is beautifully appointed but the size of the first floor sitting room is disappointingly small.
It was only after I left that I realised I had kept her way past closing time.

Overpriced & Underwhelmed
The houses are vastly overpriced (even for a newbuild). Small rooms, not enough parking, and a very rose-tinted view of how the 'utopia' will run in real life. The whole Welborne development has a vision somewhere between The Stepford Wives and The Truman Show, and the Thakeham homes are part of the plot.
Salesperson couldn't answer many of the questions posed (and they admitted they don't normally work there).
Quality is OK (not the 'exceptional' they claim) especially in the showhome kitchen (where I would expect them to showcase), and the Victorian sash uPVC windows are highly impractical. Lots of additional promises of new village centre and amenities, but the frankly Victorian restrictions on who can fill the stores will (in my opinion) lead to empty shops and another ghost town syndrome.
There is little value for money, so I won't be investing my hard-earned here...

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations, and we appreciate you raising these concerns.
At Thakeham, we’re committed to delivering thoughtfully designed homes and vibrant, sustainable communities. While we understand that the approach and vision for Welborne may not appeal to everyone, we’re confident in the long-term plans for the development and the unique benefits it offers future residents.
We're sorry to hear you found the visit underwhelming. We always aim to provide knowledgeable support, and it’s disappointing we weren’t able to answer all your questions. We will be reviewing this internally to ensure we provide the highest standard of service possible.
Your comments about the showhome quality and design choices have also been noted. We work with experienced architects and suppliers to ensure our homes are built to high standards, and feedback—positive or negative—helps us continuously improve.
We understand your concerns about the future amenities and appreciate your perspective. That said, the vision for Welborne is one of long-term investment and collaboration, with a focus on creating a thriving, well-connected place to live. We’re confident that, over time, the community will grow into a dynamic and desirable location.
Thank you again for your comments. If you'd like to discuss any of your points further, we’d be happy to arrange a conversation.

Kelly made us feel very welcome
Kelly made us feel very welcome. Cup of tea and shortbread and smart reception area appreciated after sitting in congestion on M27. Showhouse impressive as is the Development and as well as Thakeham info, Kelly sent us to the Welcome centre for the whole project where you get a better picture of the overall Garden Village. A very exciting project and good quality housing.

It’s great to hear the show home and wider development made a strong impression, and we’re glad you had the chance to explore the Welcome Centre too.
Welborne is a really exciting project, and we’re delighted you can see the potential. We look forward to staying in touch!
