When you live in a picture postcard Cotswold village like Bloxham you do not leave - you just trade up!

And at Laing Homes prestigious Bloxham Grange development you need not let the sale of your existing property slow you down either, because it will be sold for you.

The EasyMover scheme allows you to reserve a new home at a fixed price for eight weeks, while Laing Homes takes away the hassle and cost of selling your existing property.

Homeowner Gwyn Harris said: "It is a great scheme because having someone else take care of the estate agents, removals and solicitors - as well as paying their fees - is a big lift and really takes all the stress and strain away for busy people like us.

"How often can you say moving home is a painless and stress-free experience, but we had no complaints from start to finish and my wife Sarah and I would happily rate the service as close to 100 per cent satisfaction as is possible." Just three, five-bedroom detached homes with a garage remain and they all have far reaching views over the adjacent open fields and countryside.

And Laing has just released the Winchester showhome with a host of designer extras.
