I love Wales, my oh was offered a job in Cardiff and we were going to live in Penarth. I loved the place, but like anywhere you have to be careful. I wouldn't live in Barry for instance. I can not tell you about Deganwy, but you can can some idea of the neighbourhood by going to the website(removed by mod)This gives you the population, what kind of people live there, education, crime etc.

I have lived all over the uk over the years, and although i am originally from manchester, I have to say the best place i have found to live in the uk is on the south coast of england. I live in Dorset, not too rural, plenty of shops, hospitals schools etc, but with the bonus of beautiful beaches, and gorgeous countryside. I have lived in the town of Poole for 13 years now and although i plan to leave the uk for personal reasons, if i come back, this is where i will live.

I too lived in Dorset for a time and would agree that if I ever went back to live, I would go back to Dorset. I lived in Weymouth it is a great place.Dorchester too and like you said, beautiful country side, hardy country,etc.

I would say to avoid the west coast as it always rains there. The rest will be depending on the job you do and the lifestyle you want to have (i.e. you need a good income for living in London but it is so lively. Aberdeen may be a bit cold but it is a nice city next to the highlands, Edinburgh and Newcastle are not bad at all)

I have visited Newcastle and liked it very much, but actually spent more time in Luker, a village north (I think) of the city. My in laws live there.

London can be a good place to live, but very expensive. Personally I like to be close enough to travel to London for the day when I like.

If you like to be close enough to do this, then Kent or Sussex are good.
