There have been a couple of threads recently about places that you want to get out of as quickly as possible - Newport, Stevenage, etc!
It got me thinking, which towns do live up to expectations? Where is the perfect U.K.-topia?

My heart belongs in York. Unfortunately, I can't afford to live there but am hoping that I can move back one day

I live on the Devon/Cornwall border & love everything about it. Twenty minutes to the moor, 30 to the beach.

That said, I love Bath, Chester & Windsor. The Cotswolds are bloody lovely to visit too. I think there's lots of lovely places all over tbh.

The Golden Valley

The North Norfolk Staithes

East Devon

But the best place of all will remain a secret. A small valley a mile in length, with a market town on a hill, running down to the sea. Everywhere in the UK is yours, but not this place.
