Hi ladies,
We are currently renting a flat in London but we would really like to buy a house and we are thinking Bristol because London is ridiculously expensive and places near London have become just as expensive, we'd still have to commute to London for jobs, which is a lot of wasted time and money. We've done the math and London simply doesn't add up.
We'd like to get more value for the money when it comes to property, better life-work balance and a lively, diverse, town to grow our little boy, so we are considering Bristol because it ticks a lot of boxes in theory, although, truth being told, we are completely unfamiliar with the place. We're not the kind of people to settle down in a village or willing to spend hours commuting by car to the big cities for work.
Which are the nicest areas to live in Bristol with good childcare and schools near by? We are looking to buy a 3-bedroom house. I'd love to be part of a friendly community. Good transport links are a must as driving may or may not be an option for me. Thanks!!
