Just minutes from Strata’s Desire collection of homes, Manston Park offers the perfect blend of relaxation and recreation for all ages. This family-friendly green space is ideal for weekend picnics, fun-filled afternoons at the newly refurbished playground, or even a visit to The Barnbow, a welcoming pub located on the edge of the park, perfect for a relaxed meal with loved ones. The park also plays host to Breeze in the Park during the summer months ,part of the Child Friendly Leeds initiative, bringing with it exciting inflatables, interactive play zones, arts and crafts, and sporting activities that kids absolutely love. It’s one of many vibrant community events that make the area a great place to raise a family. But Manston Park isn’t just for little ones - it's also a fantastic spot for young couples and individuals to enjoy. Whether you're taking a leisurely walk with your dog, trying out the outdoor gym, or rallying on one of the three free-to-use tennis courts (just book in advance), there’s something for everyone. With spaces like Manston Park so close to home, Desire offers the best of both worlds - family fun and room to unwind.
Conveniently located in Thorpe Park and just a short drive from our collection of homes at Desiret, The Springs Retail Park offers a vibrant mix of high street shopping, dining, and entertainment, perfect for a weekend outing or a quick midweek treat. With popular names like H&M, M&S, Next, Boots, and Dunelm, it’s a go-to destination for everything from fashion to beauty to home essentials. After a spot of shopping, you can enjoy a relaxed meal at Nando’s, grab a coffee from Starbucks, or indulge in a sweet treat from Krispy Kreme.
