Great Milton Park by Redrow Homes in Newport

About the Development

Located to the east of Newport and surrounded by superb South Wales countryside, yet just minutes from excellent connections of the M4 motorway, The Hollies at Great Milton Park is an exciting new development for the area. This unique project will eventually include its own primary school and village centre with shops, along with allotments and sports pitches with changing facilities, plus acres of open spaces to enjoy.

The first phase of The Hollies at Great Milton Park will have everything you and your family needs, from excellent English and Welsh language schools close by to world class golf at Celtic Manor, from the convenience of Newport Retail park, just a few minutes drive away, to the wide open spaces of Llanwern Park.

Amenities

There are local convenience stores for your day to day needs in nearby, Ringland, with a Tesco Extra and a large Asda at Newport Retail Park.

For doctors, register with Eveswell Surgery, or Isca Medical Centre, and for dentists, try Isca Dental Practice.

Dining

The Milton Hotel, just along Cot Hill, offers friendly family dining with great pub grub. The Rib Smokehouse Bar and Grill in the Coldra Court Hotel is well worth a visit together with the Steak on Six at the Celtic Manor Hotel that has been voted the best restaurant in Newport on Wales Online.

Newport Retail Park is home to a number of well known family favourites, including a Harvester, Nandos, KFC and McDonalds, and there is a Toby Carvery close by on Coldra Road. Head into Newport and you’ll discover a huge choice of eateries for every taste and budget.

Education

There is a choice of both English language and Welsh language schools close to the development, many of which come highly rated. Milton Primary is a recent amalgamation of Milton Infants and Juniors, both of which received an ‘excellent’ rating in their last ESTYN inspections. St Gabriel’s RC Primary has been rated ‘good’, while for Welsh language primary education, Ysgol Gymraeg Casnewydd was also rated ‘excellent’.

For older pupils, Llanwern High School is just a short walk away, while Lliswerry High School (Ysgol Uwchradd Llysweri) offers lessons in both English and Welsh.

Leisure

There is so much to do in and around Newport that you’ll be spoiled for choice. Right on your doorstep you’ll find Llanwern Park and Llanwern Golf Club, with the magnificent facilities of Celtic Manor Golf and Country Club just across the motorway. Sports fans can also enjoy rugby at Newport Gwent Dragons, football at Newport County FC and even racing at nearby Chepstow.

For a great day out amongst some of Britain’s most beautiful scenery, head north to Pontypool, just 12miles away, where you’ll find the start of the Brecon Beacons National Park. For evening entertainment, there is a Cineworld cinema at Newport Retail Park, saving the hassle of going into the city, while the city itself has a choice of cinemas and theatres, along with great bars and restaurants.

Shopping

You can enjoy shopping at all levels within easy reach of Great Milton Park. The brand new £90m Friars Walk Shopping Centre is the jewel in the crown of a revitalised Newport, anchored by major names such as Debenhams and Marks & Spencer. This superb new centre offers a huge range of stores, along with cafes and restaurants, making it a real hub of city shopping. The city also boasts the Kingsway Centre. You’ll also find over 30 top name stores including Boots, H&M, Marks & Spencer, New Look, Clarks and Next, plus seven places to eat, just around the ring road at Newport Retail Park.

For even more choice, the major malls and fascinating independent stores of Cardiff and Bristol are both just a short train ride away, or a few junctions along the M4.
