Thoughts on St Edeyrn’s Village (Old St Mellons)? Does It Differ from the Rest of St Mellons?

Hi everyone, I’m looking into renting a house in St Edeyrn’s Village (Old St Mellons). The houses there are new, modern, and affordable, which is a big plus for me. I also have a car, so the lack of public transport isn’t a concern.

I’m aware that St Mellons as a whole has some bad reviews, but I’m curious if this extends to the new housing area in St Edeyrn’s Village. Does the community feel safe and welcoming? Are there any issues or downsides I should consider?

Would love to hear your thoughts—thanks in advance!
