Moving from Leeds to North Berwick

Hi everyone,

To keep it brief (for now) hubby and I are contemplating a move back up to Scotland (we are both from England but met up there at work and lived there happily for many years where we had DS1).

We since moved back to England but it’s never felt ‘right’ and now we have DS2 we know that sooner or later we need to settle somewhere that we really love and we think would offer our children a lifestyle we could have only once dreamed of.

We love North Berwick and think it ticks all the boxes. Has anybody else with a young family (my boys are both 5 years old and 4 months old) relocated here? What is it like for schooling / community? Is it a friendly place? DH will be working away a lot and I want to feel that there’s a nice community so I don’t feel isolated. I’m sure there’s plenty of mum and baby clubs and from what I’ve researched the schools seem really good (I’m not as focused on results and I am a happy place where they are nurtured).

I’ve realised this is starting not to be brief Grin so I’ll leave it there for now.

Just any advice appreciated! Thank you xx

I know a few friends who have moved down there with young children & they all love it. There seems to be a good sense of community, great schools & outdoor life.

You might get a few more responses in the Scotsnet section though.
