Moving to Largs

[Destiny33]

I am (hopefully! Offer accepted, house sold but in a chain 🤞) moving to Largs!

Excited for a new chapter in life. Any locals who can help me settle in please?

Hello 👋🏻 I moved to Largs 5 years ago - happy to chat if you want to send me a message. Tell me here if you have though as the app doesn’t alert me. Welcome - it’s a fab wee town to live in. And very welcoming to us outsiders.

You are so kind thank you! That would be amazing. I just need to work out how to pm (been lurking for 23 years and and no clue 😂)

@largsnewbie21 Out of curiosity how did you manage to integrate so quickly?

I know of a few people who moved from Glasgow to Largs/Troon around the pandemic time and nearly all of them moved back.

Granted part of that seems to be they had a culture shock but they all found it difficult to establish a social life.

Lived in Largs since 2018. DH is from Largs and grew up there, moved away and we came back on death of his DPs. It's a lovely town. Plenty to do - sports centre, golf clubs x 2, sailing, tennis, bowls, swimming pool and lots of walks, on the level or up the hills.
Pretty handy by road and rail. The school has a good rating as it goes and quite a lot of clubs and associations. Most people are friendly, if you say hello and get a blank stare a piu d to a penny it's a tourist, not a local.
I've not encountered the web-finger brigade some more parochial parts of Ayrshire.
Ask me anything.
