Minehead it is such an accepting down, my son has asd and loves butlins and trains. They have a volunteer scheme on the railway and there's a hotel in the town that employs disabled young adults. I would up and go tomorrow if I could.

Overseas to the city I lived in for 3 years - it’s where I belong more than anywhere else on this planet. DH and DC would say the same. It’s very much a heart thing rather than a head thing though - not that there would be any particular “head” reasons not to move, but it would definitely be a move based on our experiences and community rather than jobs, schools, amenities, opportunities etc.

Yorkshire, all my family are there and I miss being near them, plus somewhere near the sea. I'm happy by the sea Smile

Palma in Mallorca. Lovely city next to the sea and mountains. Chilled out.
Where do you live OP?

vampirethriller · 03/10/2020 11:00

London, I left nearly seven years ago and miss it so much.

AutumnleavesturntoGold · 03/10/2020 11:03

London, in a flash.

Totally different to anywhere else.
So much more to do so much more stimulating.

The sea.

ElizabethMainwaring · 03/10/2020 11:10

Alnmouth in Northumberland.
Or North Yorkshire coast.

Galway city.

Great restaurants and beautiful hotels and bars.

Right by the sea/river.

Great buzz in the summer.

Help!

LeoTimmyandVi · 03/10/2020 11:15

Bath - I will live there at some point in my life!

Nomnomarrgh · 03/10/2020 11:17

Cambridge. Its too expensive and the people are grumpy, but its flat and they have cows.

South of France, for the absence of real winters. No chance of that happening as I could not earn half what I do now, and Brexit rules it out in retirement.

Thighdentitycrisis · 03/10/2020 11:24

Wales

FraughtwithGin · 03/10/2020 11:26

Sri Lanka.
Warm weather, lovely people, great food, spectacular thunderstorms and torrential (warm) rain.

Any of the Canary Islands. Purely for all year round sunshine and likely a much better diet (fruit and veg just taste better there don't they?) I'd be so much healthier in every single sense of the word.

Blessinghearts · 03/10/2020 18:52

I use to live by the sea or SHOULD i say near the sea near bexhill and eastbourne but that was yrs ago and inwas a lot younger then so u dont really appreciate it at certain times of your life

Zone 1 London. I just love city life. Not a chance I could afford it though.

FiveGoMadInDorset · 03/10/2020 18:56

Channel Islands or North Antrim Coast

speakout · 03/10/2020 18:58

I would stay exactly where I am.
A rural area within 20 minutes drive of unspoilt coastline, and mountains - forests, 20 minutes from a city which hosts the biggest international arts festival in the world, is home to ancient, medieval , Georgian and modern architechture.
No surprise that JK Rowling iives close by. This is heaven.

LadyCatStark · 03/10/2020 18:59

Anywhere warm!

Oh and I bought my 5 bed home with garden for £210K.

The wilds of Wales. Somewhere remote, where I could walk my reactive dogs for miles and not see a soul. I'd love them to be able to bark in the garden without worrying about the neighbours. I'd like a garden where birds and foxes and hedgehogs and badgers could come.
