TV coffee star to provide tasty treat

Visitors to a special event in a Leicestershire village will be able to sample the fabulous flavours of an unusual TV star.

A French-style coffee van called Henri, which has appeared in a number of films, TV dramas and major TV commercials, will make a special appearance at the house-hunters event at Burton on the Wolds, Saturday 17th June.

There’s also the opportunity to enter a prize draw to win a £200 hamper of local produce supplied by Elms Farm at Costock.

Henri’s owners from ‘Café Allez!’ will be serving-up delicious beverages at the Part Exchange event being held by William Davis Homes at our new Honeysuckle Rise development.

Henri – a 1972 Citroen HY van – has appeared in a number of films and TV dramas*, as well as TV commercials for big brand names such as O2, Vodaphone and Matalan.

Visitors will be able to sample some of Henri’s brilliant beverages while finding out more about a range of offers available at the beautiful new development. Honeysuckle Rise has a range of stunning 2-5–bedroom homes.

William Davis Homes Operations Director David Dodge said house hunters will have the opportunity to discover a range of options to help them buy a new home, including mortgage subsidy, assisted move and part exchange on selected plots.

“We’re looking forward to welcoming Henri to this event which will hopefully whet the appetite of visitors looking to secure their ideal William Davis home,” said Mr Dodge.

All homes at Honeysuckle Rise achieve a minimum of an EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) B rating and could save purchasers up to £2,600** a year in running costs.

The properties come with high specification interior finishes featuring top brand names such as Smeg, Roca and Porcelanosa. Homes also have the Hive Smart Heating System, car charging and 300mbs broadband.
