My husband and I got married in Cornwall and go there as often as we can. We currently live in Wolverhampton West Mids and plan to relocate in the next year or so. I grew up in Cornwall, then lived away for about 8 years, moved back for about 10 years, now living in Dubai and moving back again to Cornwall In August. I personally think that the St. Also, house prices are definitely more reasonable than other areas. I think people often feel disappointed when they find it hard to meet people and make new friends but that is the same everywhere these days because everyone is so busy with hectic lives.
I would also say that some Cornish people can be very unreliable and will easily let you down but I guess these people exist everywhere! I am looking at relocating to Cornwall.
I live in a very rural area in Norfolk with no nearby amenities and am looking for a lively town feel with plenty of things to do, like pottery classes, yoga, rambling groups etc.
I also need to be near a beach. Any advice on the best place to look at will be very much appreciated. How exciting! Falmouth or Penryn sound like they could be great options for you — both lively with loads of creatives, artists and courses to go on.
Hi Anna. Thanks for taking the time to reply. Obviously the main thing is will I meet people to make friends with?
Thank you for your reccomandations. I am also going to look at St Austell too.. Where are you based? I hope to visit by next spring and hopefully, someday make the jump. How did you sort the renting issue out? Any advise will be helpful. Thank you Beatriz. Hi Beatriz Would be great to hear if you made it, my older brother has a job offer in Redruth and we are struggling to organise rentals etc, we are moving down from North Yorkshire… Hope you made it and would be great to hear how you got on!
I would like to relocate to Cornwall. Ive been looking on the internet and there are so many regions I like. I think the best thing for me to do is take a big road trip to get the feel of a place I like. But if you have any suggestions I would love to hear.
Im 55 and active. I am an artist. I like quirky. Bit of a hippie. Love a good local pub. I am a foodie. I do Yoga and walk a lot. I like music particularly live music. Would love to do some volunteering and be part of a community. We are looking at moving to Cornwall too! My husband would be at the hospital so we would be looking at areas near there. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks x. Hello everyone. We are moving to Foxhole in three weeks time.
We are both in our sixties and this has been a dream of ours for many years. Having lived in the South East all our lives we wanted somewhere more laid back and healthier to live. We are so excited to be coming to such a beautiful place. We like to keep ourselves to ourselves but are not unfriendly people. I would like to get a part time job in a plant nursery if possible.
I hope that we can live the final phase of our lives in peace and beauty. See you soon Annette and Lester. We have always thought about moving to Cornwall, Perranporth in particular as we holiday there two or three times a year, but have always worried about timing for the children. If that sounds ideal to you, here is a flavour of your Cornish options.
It has good rail links and a short drive to the nearest sandy beach. Property prices are a little higher than some areas in the north of England, but are pretty reasonable overall. As a first time buyer in Truro, you could snap up a bargain home. There are some beautiful towns in Cornwall you might like to explore. Newquay, St Ives, Falmouth and Penzance all offer great views of the sea, with the convenience of town facilities.
Catch a ferry to the Isles of Scilly from the busy harbour. If you have an artistic streak, St Ives might be perfect for you. Falmouth is home to lots of university students from the new university. Falmouth is considered a good bet for job hunters, as it has a strong local economy.
If you are totally beach-crazy, consider Newquay your dream home town. Porthleven offers something for everyone. Making the move to this small but perfectly formed Cornish village beside the sea could be the best decision you ever make. There are a number of local art galleries displaying local works as well as several theatres showing a range of productions.
Here you will find all your retail favourites as well as a choice of eating options for when you have shopped up a sizable appetite. If you are thinking of moving to Cornwall there is certainly a great school for your kids in Penzance.
Perhaps the most widely known of all Cornish towns, Padstow has a very enviable reputation which has inspired many to up sticks and move to the region. Watching the everyday ebb and flow of harbour life is a perfect way to spend a day. There are plenty of eateries which enable you to do just that whilst enjoying freshly caught seafood bought in by local fishermen. Padstow lays approximately 5 miles northwest of Wadebridge, 10 miles northwest of Bodmin and 10 miles northeast of Newquay.
The region allows local easy access to the rest of Cornwall and is undoubtedly one of the best areas to live in Cornwall. The small settlement or hamlet of Mawgan Porth boasts a long sandy beach surrounded by rugged cliffs, home to plenty of sea birds.
Sitting midway between Padstow and Newquay on the north Cornish coast, Mawgan Porth offers its inhabitants, stunning scenery, wondrous walks, and superb surfing. Somewhat of an undiscovered secret, most people have heard about St Ives or Newquay and Padstow, Mawgan Porth has slipped under the radar.
The little centre has a village post office and shop with an adjoining tea room serving cream teas. For a more comprehensive selection of shops, locals head along the coast to the much larger town of Newquay. Located four miles from Newquay, Mawgan Porth has the additional benefit of being only 2 miles away from Newquay Airport. Yet another family-friendly place to reside with year-round attractions for all ages, tastes and abilities. Quality of life is one of the main reasons why people want to move to Cornwall.
The prospect of open spaces, beautiful coast and countryside with plenty of unpolluted air to breathe is a strong draw, particularly for those who are tired of living in densely populated areas or enduring long daily commutes.
Cornwall offers healthy living opportunities in spades and if you love the Great Outdoors, it could be the best decision you ever made. As an antidote to children cooped up indoors and glued to a computer screen, Cornwall may seem like the Holy Grail, offering the prospect of real family living with plenty of healthy outdoor activities for everyone. Due to the fact that Cornwall is much less densely populated than many other areas in the UK, the amount of housing stock for sale at any one point is limited.
Depending on the area and your requirements, finding the perfect Cornwall home for you and your family may therefore take longer than anticipated. While Cornwall properties may be cheaper to buy, capital growth is slower so it pays to take a long-term view.
