To ask where is nice to live but doesn't get m/any tourists

[OptimismvsRealism]

Need to find somewhere asap

East Anglia.

Isn't Cambridge there??

Northumberland/North Tyneside coast

👆 this.

Are you wanting rural or a town?

East Anglia is a big area. It includes Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex … yes, it contains Cambridge, like many nice areas of the country contain cities.

West Cumbria (and I don't mean the Lake District)

what do you want exactly? Why do you want to leave? How much can you afford?

Town ideally or at least very good public transport connections to town

South Croydon

North of Finland.

Hm, 500k, don't need schools nearby, would like a few nice shops and restaurants, somewhere that's nice to be and interesting but for some reason no absolute hordes all summer crushing my will to live

Suffolk is beautiful and lots of villages have small train stations so good access if commuting to London etc .

How many bedrooms, detached/semi/not bothered/flat ok? Anywhere you need to be near or avoid?

3 bed ideally but 2 would do, would prefer a house but flat with garden would be ok, but since this is for hermitage reasons house really better and detached ideal, nowhere to avoid except places full of tourists

Northumberland.

Some bits of the Peaks and Lakes and other National Parks are quiet outside of the honeypots.

Come to the Isle of Man my dear, we have space and need more fellow hermits...

Non touristy but nice town - Newcastle u T.

Rammed full of students though, but does get quiet in the summer.

Chesterfield had nice areas. 30 mins to Sheffield, 30 mins into Peaks. Holymoorside area.

Head away from.the North Norfolk coast and look at towns such as Wymondham and Attleborough. Great places to live. Some good schools. Short journey to the coast and Lindon by train in 1.75 hours. So doable 2 or 3 days a week

Worcester is lovely and certainly not overrun with tourists! No influx around summer etc. Malvern is close and sounds like it would suit you well

Weybridge or Cobham. Completely empties out during summer as everyone goes away. It's just like Italy.

East Grinstead
Tunbridge Wells
Horsham

Worcester
Hereford
Cheltenham(?) maybe does get touristy during races, festival etc
Leamington Spa
Malvern
Gloucester
