lobby leads into the open-plan lounge, with the social kitchen and honesty bar at one end and a roaring fire and comfortable sofas at the other. With its view over the gardens, this is a space that regularly brings people together for a cup of tea, a bite to eat and a chat with neighbours. In warmer months, the double doors open out into the gardens so social occasions can spill outdoors. Entertaining friends and relatives is easy and convenient, with a guest suite available for bookings whenever visitors wish to stay over.

ne of the neighbourhood's universally appealing destinations, Flaghead Chine Beach is a Blue Flag
holder with long stretches of golden sand. Perfect for a walk, any time of day. When you leave 1 Flaghead Road there are a number of pathways to choose from that will take you there. That's one of the joys of living here: finding new paths to explore, taking shortcuts or enjoying longer leisurely strolls. The Chines of the Dorset coast offer many delights to walkers and the quickest way to reach the beach from Woodlands is to stroll under the towering pines of Flaghead Chine.

his leafy route to the beach takes you under the pines, following the signposted FP 80. The path offers
a tour of the Chine, a steep valley formed from old riverbeds through which rivers once met the sea. It's a tranquil area of natural beauty, home to a great variety of wildlife. This footpath takes you past the promenade, and you can walk along here or on the sandy beach that stretches into the distance. From here, you'll be able to catch a glimpse of Old Harry Rocks, three chalk formations positioned between the bays of Studland and Swanage. Continue walking west, passing by the two-storey beach huts, and you'll reach Jazz CafĂŠ. This is the perfect spot to stop for fish and chips or one of their sharing boards, or simply soak up the beachfront atmosphere over coffee and cake.

ituated on the prestigious coastline between Poole and Bournemouth, Canford Cliffs has numerous lively bars,
bistros and restaurants to discover. Try Jazz Café on Shore Road, or Stock Dining Room & Bar for a leisurely breakfast. Beach-lovers will of course find a great deal to enjoy here. Take a walk along the shoreline and have a refreshing paddle and an ice cream from a kiosk at nearby Branksome Chine, perhaps. The more adventurous might like to have a go at the wide variety of watersports on offer, such as jet-skiing and windsurfing. Woodlands is also just four miles away from the busy shopping centres of Poole and Bournemouth, which offer everything from cinemas and wine clubs to art exhibitions.

Introducing PegasusLife PegasusLife is a business on a mission to fundamentally re-think and re-invent the places and ways in which we live as we get older. The company already has thirty developments in locations across the U.K. and Ireland, with many more in the pipeline.
Howard Phillips, Chief Executive Officer
John Nordon, Design Director
Our central idea is that everyone, irrespective of age, shares an aspiration to live independently within an intelligently designed, socially inclusive environment, supported by an intuitive service offer, and an efficient and ethical approach to property management.
Our work is about making imaginative places that foster natural interactions between neighbours. Our approach does not follow a ‘cookie cutter’ style, no two PegasusLife developments are the same. Each one carefully conceptualises the history, architectural character, culture and personality of its location and, most critically, embodies the spirit of the people we believe will want to live in it. We make use of the highest quality materials and craftsmanship – not just to create beautiful places for people to live, but to protect the future of our customers’ homes and investment.
83
Canford Cliffs
Lorena Brown, Sales & Marketing Director
Clare Bacchus, Customer Experience Director
Our core value is transparency. Many of our customers are moving from more traditional freehold family homes, and won’t have lived in modern apartments set within communal developments before. There are significant advantages to this way of living, however it is different, and we see it as our responsibility not just to make sure that we’ve communicated what it’s about, but that our audience has understood it too.
Our starting point in everything we do is the people who choose to live in our developments. What will they want to do here? What type and style of service is appropriate? What kind of living environment do we need to create to generate the right atmosphere and give people the experience they’re looking for? This philosophy goes right down to the level of detail of considering which brand of coffee to serve in the café and what types of treatments to offer in the spa, and extends through to the type of attitude we look for in the team we recruit to deliver the personal, informal and efficient approach to service we’re looking for.
One of the major hallmarks of our approach is the way we’ve considered property management – which we run on behalf of our residents on a not-for-profit basis. Furthermore, when customers purchase a property with PegasusLife, they become shareholders of the development’s management company, guaranteeing them voting rights and a say in how their development is managed.

Woodlands
A unique approach to property management
85
When we talk about maintenance, we mean much more than a lick of paint or changing a light bulb (although we will of course take care of that too). Woodlands has many green areas that reflect its landscape, including a planted roof garden, mature trees and extensive gardens. Being situated so close to the coast, it comes with a set of individual requirements for maintenance. This specific care ensures that your investment is secure and you can enjoy living in an environment that improves rather than deteriorates with age. From protecting the building from salt erosion to making sure the roof garden is safely drained – the approach is tailor-made and detail oriented. The management company for Woodlands is run on a strict not-for-profit basis. This ensures that work is carried out solely for the purposes of caring for the building and maintaining the quality of the offer and experience of living here for the residents. On purchasing a property at Woodlands, homeowners automatically become shareholders of the management company, together with PegasusLife, giving you voting rights and a say in how the company is managed and run. When it comes to the operation of the management company, we believe passionately that true transparency is fundamental to maintaining residents' peace of mind and the management company's integrity. For this reason, we have invested in creating our own digital tool for property management – an online members-only system, designed to provide you with a detailed understanding of how your money is spent on servicing Woodlands, and to enable you to keep track of expenditure and investment in the building over time.

We are rejuvenating this historic country estate so it can be cherished for years to come. This involves a respectful restoration of the main house and several sensitive new buildings within the landscape.
This development of two striking red brick pavilions is inspired by the Victorian mansion vernacular of Wilmslow and the surrounding area.
This new development is a landmark between the Royal Free Hospital and Haverstock Hill. It offers a contemporary response to the inspirational architecture of Hampstead.
