Bartlett Court is Leadbitter's latest project for housing association Guinness Hermitage, a member of the Guinness Partnership. The association provides high-quality housing to residents across the South and South West, maintaining and managing over 15,000 homes across the area.

Surinder Heer, Development Director at Guinness Hermitage commented: "Bartlett Court in Lee-on-the-Solent is an example of the modern design methods we are able to use to create desirable homes which support our residents and enable them to enjoy independent living."
