The decision to relocate is never easy. There are plenty of factors to take into account. However, we feel that our corner of the UK has a lot going for it.
With the nearby towns of Reading, Basingstoke and Newbury, you really will enjoy the best of both worlds – all the benefits of urban living and the English countryside right on your doorstep. Plus, London is only a short journey away.
Reading is one of the fastest growing centres for business, shopping and leisure in the UK. Already famous for hosting a wide range of music festivals, it also boasts superb sports, leisure and shopping centres like the Madejski Stadium, the Oracle and a major concert hall.
Sitting astride the Kennet and Avon canal, Newbury is a historic, vibrant market town that’s becoming an increasingly sophisticated cultural centre. It has everything you could ask for in terms of eating out, shopping and the arts. Then there’s the world famous racecourse, if you ever fancy a flutter.
With modern developments building on its old market town atmosphere, Basingstoke has a lot to offer. As well as the shopping and leisure venue Festival Place and the beautiful surrounding countryside, it’s also home to the Anvil – one of the leading performing arts venue in the South of England.
