Having taken the lead in providing a unique experience in residential living in the center of the Island, Moorland Development Company continues to offer opportunities for gracious living in an Eco-friendly environment.

The twin developments of Moorlands Estate and Moorlands Manor have already fulfilled the dream of many; providing the peace of mind for those who desire the tranquility of a quiet place to retire while at the same time accommodating the young family with a desire to raise children in a safe and controlled environment. Our emphasis on preserving ample green spaces, is a feature of all our developments.

With personal safety a major concern; the creation of gated communities is therefore a feature of our developments and this is further buttressed by the effective use of modern technology.
