[jellyjelly]

We are thinking about moving to Parkstone and we are having problems picking an area.

IUt must be family friendly (i am a childminder and need to be near the young new families that are going back to work) and near good schools(primary and state nursery not privateschools or nurseries).

We have seen some big 4 bed house in the worrell drive and Kimmeridge Avenue and would like to know a bit more about it. Can anyone help? Any help much apprecaited.

Thanks

bumping this again for you jellyjelly - I'm in Southbourne (near Christchurch), so no help, but there are lots of MNetters in the area, so hope someone sees your post soon.

Hi JJ. I'm in Broadstone. I don't know Parkstone that well and don't know what these roads are like. If you go on Up my Street dot com and put in the postcode it tells you what the area is like, and you can find the nearest schools and click links to read the Ofsted reports.

So much for some local knowledge, eh? It is lovely round here though, I can thoroughly recommend living in this part of the country. We have the beaches, the Purbecks, New Forest all on our doorstep, plus there's loads going on in Poole and Bournemouth all year round.

Hi Jodee!

Hey you! like the name change!

What is broadstone like then. I need an area with lots of kids. Where would you recommend.
