thinking of moving to tonbridge wells...

[mollyisobel]

my partner and our two girls aged almost 3 and 18 months are thinking of moving to tw from folkestone. there is so much to think about! what are the nurseries like? how expensive are they? although i dont need to use them as child care while i work as i work round their dad! are there many groups going on where i could take the girls and meet people? as i wont know anyone! we would be right in the centre with no garden so is there any nice parks and things to do outside when the weather is good? be lovely to get some tips and suggestions! ...........

Hello,

I am in the same boat - we are thinking of moving to the area but know no one and nothing about the area!

We have a one year old.

we will prob move over in a couple of months! my other half is opening a shop so makes sence to live close to work! i have been over a few times and it seems a lovely place! have to keep in touch and if you do move over you will know at least one person!!

Hi Mollyisobel, We will have to keep in touch! I have no idea what we are doing but if we do head that way I will let you know!

Tunbridge Wells has lots of parks and massess going on for families. I can really recommend it to anyone. Almost all the primary schools are excellent and it is generally a very friendly place. If you need anymore specific information let me know.

Can't beat hiring a pedalo and having an ice cream in Dunorlan Park on a summer's afternoon.

hi penny! i am looking forward to the move as i have only heard good things about the place! do you know of any good playschools/ nurseries i will be right in town and dont drive! my eldest is 3 in march so will get her free hours from after easter! she goes 2 mornings a week at the mo and loves it!
