4.7 / 5From 10 renter reviews
After two years, the resident loves the strong community, friendly staff and rich facilities (pool, gym, tennis, rooftop) plus regular resident events. Maintenance and tenancy changes have always been handled quickly and positively.
After four years, Blackhorse Mills remains loved. Front-of-house staff are always available and happy to fix things, and the gym is well equipped with a lovely pool. There are plenty of spaces to enjoy with friends, and the terrace is beautiful in warm weather.
A fantastic development with an excellent, personable property management team (notably Kul and Kornelia) and helpful front-of-house staff. Facilities including the gym are loved, and the gym classes with Julian are excellent.
The development is mostly clean and nicely decorated, with friendly management and lovely facilities. The pool, gym and tennis are favourite features, plus a yoga studio and good pizza at Dodici.
Modern, high-spec building with art-filled communal areas, good remote-working spaces and community events. Spacious green surroundings make it a calm place to live.
The building is well designed with facilities the reviewer regularly uses, including a pool, dog-walking access and an appreciated, unique parcel room. Staff are great, very nice and helpful when contacted.
Staff at Blackhorse Mills are brilliant and helpful, especially Toye, and notably good with the building's pets. The facilities are fantastic for this type of building compared with others in the area. The only drawback is a lack of car parking spaces.
Blackhorse Mills has standout design, a top-of-the-range gym and pool, a work/relax lounge, and private dining areas for hosting. The management and reception staff are warm, attentive and helpful, and the maintenance team resolves issues promptly.
Very good facilities and a friendly, pet-friendly community with kind staff. The only downside of the wetland views is the enormous spiders — otherwise a great place.
The development is brilliant but could use better anti-bird measures like pigeon spikes and more rat/mouse bait boxes. The pool and gym, not yet open due to Covid, look incredible.
