Quality of life is about the details of everyday living. From the little things, like knowing the nearest place to pick up a pint of milk, to more important matters like finding the right school or having a health centre nearby, you need to know that the community you’re moving to will support you and your family, as well as being a pleasant place to live. So here’s some useful information about the area around Springhill Meadows

Originally a cluster of separate villages, Barrhead is a pleasant town with lots of green spaces and open outlooks. Close to the M77, it has good bus links with Glasgow, Paisley and other centres. Trains from Barrhead Station, around a mile from the development, reach Glasgow Central in approximately 25 minutes, and there are also direct connections to Kilmarnock and Newcastle. A new Barrhead South railway station, on the Neilston to Glasgow Central line, promises to be even closer to the development.

There are Tesco, Lidl and a few other high street stores in the Kelburn Centre, just over half a mile away. The larger selection of shops around Main Street includes pharmacies, a butcher, bakeries and takeaways, convenience stores and newsagents, Asda and Iceland supermarkets and a large post office. For a wider selection of high street stores including fashion and electronics, sport and leisure alongside a choice of restaurants and a 14-screen Vue cinema, the popular Silverburn Shopping Centre is just three and a half miles away.
