Pretty much anywhere in the gorgeous Northern Ireland. Everywhere is close to the sea, loads of culture, spectacular scenery and three airports. Education standards are much, much higher than England. And £320k would buy you the property above or many other big houses.Father Ted: Now concentrate this time, Dougal. These
(he points to some plastic cows on the table) are very small; those (pointing at some cows out of the window) are far away...

Wow, that house is stunning! Strangely I am coming to Ireland (although Southern Ireland) for the first time later this month. I hadn't really considered it for somewhere to live! Will definitely look into it though, thank you.
And thank you for all the other suggestions, Cheshire/Manchester, Bournemouth, Glasgow (love Glasgow) and Liverpool all going on the research list!April £10 a day challenge £321.85/£300 May £10 a day challenge £136.93/£310 July £20 a day challenge £530.57/£6200 -

It's cold up in Scotland. If you're used to the southern weather you may not like it up north!0

Chesterfield. Great place for live music. Plenty of Uni's about. Trains go all over the place. 100 miles from the sea, but you've got the Peak District on your doorstep. EMA, Robin Hood and Leeds Bradford airports are close enough.Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?0 -

I've visited Scotland a few times and the weather has mostly been very kind to me! It's not the biggest concern, to be honest, I'm an all weather kind of a girl!
Dublin I shall be checking out at the end of the month!
Devon I love, but is a bit remote for gigs and airports. Looks beautiful though.
Chesterfield is somewhere I hadn't looked at before, but looks very promising! Thank you all!April £10 a day challenge £321.85/£300 May £10 a day challenge £136.93/£310 July £20 a day challenge £530.57/£6200 -
Devon's easy enough for Bristol which has a good music scene - and Plymouth and Bournemouth are easy -London isn't impossible and Bristol airport has good connections to everywhere. Plymouth has an airport too and South Devon has great rail connections. Plenty of tourism and care opportunities too.
Musicwise my friends in Devon seem to head for Cardiff for the big name gigs as much as London al.though both Bournemouth and Plymouth have arenas too. The biggest difference that the motorways will feature as the fast routes whereas from where you are now train is often just as quick.
If I was looking north I'd be looking towards Liverpool though.I Would Rather Climb A Mountain Than Crawl Into A Hole
