North Yorkshire living

[Frokni]

Good morning mumsnet,

When Covid has passed my DH and our DDs want to travel the UK and find some new small towns and villages, and if possible, a nice place to relocate with a character property and a patch of land.

I have heard that school standards around the Dales and parts of North Yorkshire are of a good standard and that quality of life is high.

For those who live there or know a lot about it, could you please elaborate on why you think it is a good place to live or not?

Thanks 😊

Just wondering how you got on and where you ended up! I have a similar move on the cards with a year 13 son from the south and would be great to know how things are for your son as it’s my main worry!

Hi 👋

Sad to say we are still stuck in the place I can't stand. 2 sales fell through a year apart and I am gutted 😢

We are looking at places over the county in Buckinghamshire but I am not especially jazzed. I am still.open to something more exciting but we shall see.

Where are you looking? Is your boy excited?

Looking north/West Yorkshire areas, he’s excited but I don’t think he’s thinking as deeply about it as me, I worry about him fitting in and finding “his people” as a teen/young adult. I’ve looked at so many threads on here today but none seem to have the ending of what happened 😂

Sorry. The story is still in process, ongoing. I will let you know the ending when it's here.

I'm sure your boy will find his crew. They always find a way.

Good Luck on your house hunt!

Just wondering how you got on, where you ended up and how your son settled in up north! I have a similar move on the cards with a year 13 son from the south and would be great to know how things are for your son as it’s my main worry!
