We currently live in Manchester. Most of my partners work is midlands and London meaning he usually stays away mon- Friday and does a heck of a lot of travelling. We are thinking of relocating to somewhere outside of London so his journeys are not as bad and if he does need to still stay in a hotel , his travel won’t be as long as it currently is to and from Manchester. We would like to live in more of a rural location with a nice community feel. We have a 13 year old son so don’t want to be too isolated though but I would love somewhere with nice views and walks. I would like a good public transport in to London as if I move to my works London office would need to go in twice a week. Any ideas of places? I have no idea!

If you're loaded, Richmond or Kew.

Not so loaded, the Milton Keynes ((outskirts). I've heard Stony Stratford is nice.

Oxford and surrounding areas might work if you want connections to London and Birmingham. Good luck op.
