Jones Homes, part of The Emerson Group, has a long-standing track record in construction dating back to 1959. However, prospective buyers should note that customer feedback for the Cavendish Park development on independent review sites has been mixed (with an average rating of 3.31/5.00). While residents praise the design, curb appeal, and spacious layouts, common reported issues include delays in snagging resolution, poorly fitted fixtures, and poor quality of topsoil in gardens, suggesting due diligence on the build quality and aftercare service is necessary. The development features a variety of house types, including the four-bedroom detached ‘The Bentley’ and 'The Barbridge' which are available to view as show homes. Other identified house types include the three-bedroom semi-detached 'The Birch' and the four-bedroom 'The Banbury,' which offers an internal floor space of 1354 sq. ft. and includes an open-plan kitchen/family dining area with white PVCu French doors opening to the rear garden, a separate living room, and an integral single garage. All properties are built to a high internal specification, featuring light-filled interiors, and a master bedroom with a dedicated en-suite shower room. Bolsover is dominated by the 17th-century Bolsover Castle, offering a historical backdrop and picturesque views over the Derbyshire countryside. The development is situated approximately 6 miles from the larger town of Chesterfield, which provides comprehensive shopping, dining, and leisure facilities. Local amenities in Bolsover include quaint pubs and independent shops. As part of the planning agreement, Jones Homes is investing approximately £800,000 into local services and infrastructure.
