I'd suggest the Sussex coast - it's near your parents and London, and from London you have easy access to everywhere else.

And the weather's better than Warrington!

It entirely depends on you, your life and the accessibility of family and friends.

Many years ago we were seduced by how happy our closest friends were living in a small village in the Lake District and we nearly succumbed. Then we realised that our interests were entirely different to theirs and within six months we would be climbing the walls with boredom because we would have little or no access to any of our usual pursuits. So we stayed where we were and have never regretted it.

Sit down and think about how you live your life, what you want from where you live, what you enjoy doing and start from there. One woman's meat is another's poison.

There are some lovely places on the sea around Bristol, with relatively easy access to Wales, London and Sussex. You can decide how urban - or not - you want to be.

So there are lots of you on here and all over the country so maybe someone lives in a great place that would be just right for me!!!!
I moved from Cornwall to Warrington to help my daughter but now is the time I can move on again! I was going to Prestatyn but just cannot find a property there so wondering if there is some 'higher reason' and a better place to live!
I like to be near the sea/somewhere to swim outside, access to London, everything in walking distance. Somewhere lovely with access to nature. I never want to move again!!! Needs to be the right place.
I did once meet someone who lived in a complex with an outdoor swimming pool. Wow!
St Ives where I used to live is too far from family and everything really although I do love it there. My daughter is going to Mold and my son lives near Conwy and my elderly parents are in Sussex . But this time I am going somewhere for me!!!
I actually have a buyer who has agreed to wait for me to move/complete til March 22nd but wants to exchange any day.
Thank you!
