Hi all
We're living in Scotland at the mo and for a number of reasons want to move down south. Pre children (only 3 years ago!) we lived in Putney for 3 years. We now have a DD at 2.5 and a DS who is almost one. We are planning on selling up this year if we can and moving down south again. The question we are struggling with is whether to move back into London (thinking about the Teddington area) or further out to a place like Guildford and surrounding areas. We checked out TW and Guildford in the summer last year and tbh it all freaked me out a bit. Whilst I preferred Guildford to TW, I just wasn't excited by the prospect. It feels quite small. But then, living in say Teddington, we would have the aircraft noise and the London business but we would be spoiled by having the Thames nearby and both Bushy and Richmond parks. I suppose SW London isn't really in the thick of London though. When we were in Guildford, there wasn't actually that many parks we came across. Or did we not look hard enough?? I worry that if we decided to move out of London, it would be a bit of a gamble and I don't want to be constantly on the move. Is there a slower pace of life in Teddington compared to Putney? Anyone regret moving out of London and then moved back again? thanks peeps.
