Pennyfarthing Homes Anmeldelser 

We recently returned "home" after spending some 30 years in the United States and begun our quest to secure a new home.

We have been in contact with a number of builders with varying degrees of help and success, one builder deserves a special mention, Pennyfarthing Homes, in particular the Potter's Wood development.

Although we were unable to complete a house purchase at Potter's Wood, our interest was with The Riverdale, we would like to extend our compliments to the Sales personnel, Julie and Jackie.

We could not find a more accommodating pair of genuinely nice people; they spent considerable time helping us pursue our dreams. They understood that us being away from the UK for such a time meant that we were unaware of the many changes that had taken place and with great patience they piloted us through the maze. They directed us the through the procedure with calm assurance and great patience.

Julie and Jackie could not have improved upon the service they performed on our behalf and in our opinion deserve to be recognized as essential operatives and a credit to Pennyfarthing Homes.

Sadly, despite all the help we were unable to complete the purchase of such a lovely property.

Pennyfarthing Homes are a fantastic company to work with, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have their continued support as Sponsors of one of the Main Rings at the New Forest & Hampshire County Show.

They are genuinely passionate about the Show and giving back to the local community and are always enthusiastic about getting involved and supporting us. The whole team is a pleasure to work with, they’re friendly, professional, responsive, and make our partnership easy and enjoyable.

One of the highlights each year is seeing their mascot join us to present prizes for the equine competition they sponsor. It’s such a fun addition to the Show, and something that competitors and visitors really enjoy!

We are incredibly grateful for Pennyfarthing Homes’ continued support and very much look forward to working with them for many years to come.

10/10 service from Pennyfarthing Homes.
They are always incredibly attentive, helpful and easy to deal with. They make the whole process so much easier through clear communication, quick responses and making sure everything is organized and ready when it needs to be.
It makes a huge difference working with someone who understands the importance of keeping things moving and is always willing to help resolve anything that comes up.
An absolute credit to Pennyfarthing Homes and a pleasure to work with. 10/10.

Great company, good family ethos and friendly to deal with.

It’s been a pleasure supporting Pennyfarthing Homes on the Danes Park project in New Milton, Hampshire.

The development is looking fantastic, and I’m delighted to have supported the team with stunning Karndean LVT flooring to complement these beautiful new homes. The right flooring can really bring a space together, combining style, practicality and lasting quality.

A great project and a fantastic team to work alongside! 🏡✨ great customer service, quality homes in a beautiful location near the new forest 🌳

We have had the pleasure of working with Pennyfarthing Homes for a number of years, supplying signage across their developments. Everybody we deal with at Pennyfarthing is absolutely lovely—friendly, approachable and always a pleasure to work with. They are a fantastic company, and we really value our relationship with such a wonderful team. Highly recommended!

the reality of living in oakwood grove one year later it’s not like looking at the company brouchre dead trees no gardening being done for the maintenance paid beverly been told the truth solar fitted not working for one year but all signed and passed with a guarantee pipes not connected customer service is a little lackluster
take your money and you have to fight all the way and now a road and more building after denying any more construction on our little private estate

So happy with the whole process, always so helpful, nothing is ever too much.
From start to finish they have been absolutely amazing. Cannot recommend them enough 🫶🏻

Extremely disappointed by the sales process and the lack of transparency
We purchased our home at Oakwood Grove in September 2025 for over £510,000 (a small development of circa 40 houses), believing we had found our long-term family home.
Before purchasing, we carried out extensive research and asked a number of questions that were important to us. One of those questions related to the future makeup of the development, as we wanted to fully understand what we were buying into before making such a significant financial commitment.
During the sales process, we were repeatedly assured that there would be no shared ownership or social housing on the development and that the affordable housing requirement had been moved elsewhere. Those assurances were consistent with the information available in the sales literature, marketing material and on the website at the time.
Approximately eight months after moving into our home, we have discovered that 12 properties on the development had been transferred to Magna Housing for shared ownership. Together with the seven First Homes properties, this means almost half of the development now comprises affordable housing products.
Our disappointment is not about affordable housing or shared ownership itself. It is about making one of the biggest financial decisions of our lives based on information we believed was accurate and complete, only for the position to change shortly after we moved in.
Had we been told that private homes on the development could later be transferred to a housing association for shared ownership, we would have made a different purchasing decision.
We have since spoken with a number of other purchasers who tell us they received similar assurances during the sales process.
Alongside this, we had issues with build quality, snagging and after-sales service, which have further affected our confidence.
We have formally written to Pennyfarthing Homes requesting an explanation and are currently seeking clarification about the timeline of events. We genuinely hope the company will engage constructively and work towards resolving these concerns.
My advice to anyone considering buying a new home is to ask detailed questions, obtain important assurances in writing and carry out as much independent research as possible before exchanging contracts.

No faults at all with Pennyfarthing. Jackie was fab when it came to communication during the sale and then Taisha in the office super quick to respond with snagging.
Matt and Chris who dealt with snagging were friendly and efficient with any fixes.
We went through quite an ordeal with a roof issue and the Pennyfarthing team took it very seriously when their contractor weren't getting the problem resolved. Aaron the site manager was brilliant with communication throughout the whole ordeal.
Definitely recommend Pennyfarthing as a trustworthy housebuilder.

We moved into a new Pennyfarthing bungalow at Potters wood in March and are extremely satisfied with the build quality and the responses to our relatively minor snagging issues.
Jackie in the on-site sales office has been very competent, friendly and approachable throughout the whole process and continues to be so. Matt who deals with the snagging issues likewise.
Unfortunately, we cannot say the same for those above them in the organisation.
The buyer of our last property, the sale of which we were reliant upon to finance the purchase from Pennyfarthing, experienced some issues which delayed the process.
However, Pennyfarthing kept pressuring us to exchange contracts even though the delay was outside of our control.
Due to this we were on the point of withdrawing from the purchase several times and it was only Jackie’s and our estate agent’s reassurances that it would all come together in the end that kept us going with the purchase otherwise Pennyfarthing would have been going through the process of selling our particular property for even longer.
The pressure was such that at one point we began to doubt Pennyfarthing’s financial stability and were only re-assured after a review of their previous years financial reports on the Companies House web site.
Whilst our desired outcome was achieved in the end, it would have been far less stressful if some appreciation of the normal trials and tribulations of moving house in England had been demonstrated by the Pennyfarthing’ Homes’ senior management.

We purchased our new home with Pennyfarthing Homes (Potters Wood) and moved in back in January, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience so far. The house is beautifully designed, finished to a high standard, and really feels like home already.

Throughout the entire process, Pennyfarthing were professional, supportive, and helpful. Jackie in the sales team is an exceptional asset to the company and kept us updated every step of the way, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free.

Even now, four months after moving in, the customer care team have continued to provide excellent support with the minor snagging issues we’ve come across. Matt and Chris have both been fantastic — responsive, helpful, and always willing to assist with anything we’ve needed.

It’s been reassuring to know that the aftercare service is just as good as the buying experience itself. We are extremely happy with our new home and would happily recommend Pennyfarthing to anyone looking to buy a new-build property.

Thank you to the whole team at Pennyfarthing.

It has been a genuine pleasure working alongside Leika and the team at Pennyfarthings. From the very beginning, the entire experience has been handled with a high level of professionalism, with communication that was consistently clear, timely, and considerate. I particularly appreciated how respectful they were of my time, ensuring that everything was well-organised and efficiently managed. This thoughtful and collaborative approach made the process smooth and enjoyable from start to finish, and it truly reflects the team’s commitment to delivering an excellent standard of service.

I had a great experience working with this company as a contractor on two separate sites. From the start, communication was clear, professional, and respectful of my time. Project expectations were well-defined, and any questions I had were addressed promptly.

I have visited several Pennyfarthing Homes developments and been very impressed by the attention to detail that has clearly been included during the design process. They create stylish homes located in lovely settings. One day, I would love to buy one and live happily ever after in the New Forest.

I recently had my post-reservation meeting with Pennyfarthing Homes. Tom was very informative, answered all my questions, and made the process feel much clearer. A really positive experience

The homes are really lovely

I visited Pennyfarthing Homes development in New Milton, the quality of the build, the layout of the interior rooms and thoughtful details were very impressive.
Also the sales team couldn't have been more helpful.
If I were looking to move, Pennyfarthing Homes would be high on my list, well worth a look.
