So five criteria:


1-peaceful good area

2-affordable to rent a 1/2 bedroom flat/house

3-with max.45 min train journey to London

4-surrounded by beautiful countryside

5-not necessary to buy a car to move around


I would say that this place doesn?t exist but there are lots of places fitting 4 of the 5 criteria. Decide which you are most willing to compromise on and go from there.


There are some lovely places in the East Surrey countryside by-the-way but if you want to keep requirements 1 and 2 you are going to have to get rid of requirement 5.

No, not joke, is a nice place and except for the train journey thing, it fits the bill, and it is also on the fast train to London if you change at Faversham so journey can be speedier......just trying to be helpful......are there "in" jokes about Whitstable then?

Ashford, Kent


1. peaceful (not gorgeous)

2. at least half the price of London

3. 37 minutes to London (St. Pancras)

4. surrounded by beautiful, truly beautiful countryside

5. definitely don't need a car


and 6. easy quick access to sea by train - take your pick of seaside towns

and 7. lovely Canterbury is 15 minutes by train for theatre/shopping/restaurants

and 8. quick train access to loads of lovely villages


Check it out, but don't judge by the walk from the train station because that is really grim.

Kennington area is nice.

I think so. It seems to stem from this: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,673056,673056#msg-673056

    • My food bin….still not collected….
    • A huge thank you to Julian Richards for fitting our custom wardrobes in two of our bedrooms, we are so happy with the results, they really feel a 'part of the room', super integrated with the space. Julian was a joy to work with, extremely helpful talking through the various options to help make decisions around the look and feel of the wardrobes vs the storage space, and approaches the build in a very methodically and logical manner, ensuring all our needs are taken into account to deliver a space that works for us and our lives. An excellent carpenter and a pleasure to have in the house. I highly recommend working with Julian!
