A flying start

A new life in Scotland got off to a flying start for Freddie Watts and Doug Smith when they set eyes on their new Bellway home in the village of Winchburgh.

Freddie, a pilot, and Doug, a flight attendant, met while working at Gatwick Airport, but new jobs found them looking to relocate back to Scotland where they are both originally from.

First-time buyers, the couple were keen to live near Edinburgh Airport and close to Linlithgow and South Queensferry, locations they enjoy visiting, and set about looking for their dream home.

The complete package


Little did they know, things were about to take off when they visited Bellway’s sales office at Winchburgh Grange.

Freddie explains, “I couldn’t believe when we visited Winchburgh Gate and met the sales consultant, Melissa, as it turns out we’d both previously worked together as cabin crew for the same airline – it’s a small world!”

The couple, who were attracted to Winchburgh because of its connectivity and the fact that it’s an up-and-coming area, went on to purchase a Benbecula house style, a three-bedroom terraced home.

"The Benbecula is the perfect first-time home and we love everything about it, especially the stylish kitchen!”
"The whole process was really easy. We were guided at every stage and kept informed." – Freddie

The perfect buying experience

Freddie added, “The Benbecula is the perfect first-time home and we love everything about it, especially the stylish kitchen!

“It’s always perceived that buying a new home is a stressful experience and as first-time buyers we didn’t know what to expect, but the whole process was really easy.  We were guided at every stage and kept informed.

“The development is close to the airport but the location still has the feel of a village which we like.  Our house is also situated in a nice quiet cul-de-sac and we’re just really happy here.”
