Thinking of moving to Cumbria
I 30 M with partner 29 F with 3 children M 5, M 3, F 6 months are seriously considering and looking at moving to Cumbria (around Penrith area) from outskirts of Derby in the next year or two once we've sorted stuff out.
We're big into hiking/being outdoors (all weather)/ want to pickup other outdoor activities and it seems like the perfect place for us. We've visited and it definitely seems like theres a slower pace of life and more of a community spirit (much friendlier people) than we're used to in Derby which is what we're looking for.
We aren't particularly interested in nightlife/shopping etc & aren't bothered by having to go a little bit of the way to get things. In fact prefer it to having all the hustle and bustle on the doorstep kind of thing.
I work remotely & partner isn't currently working due to 6 month old. We don't have much in the way of family/friends where we are anyway do used to isolation 🤣
Just looking for better quality of life for us and the kids and would appreciate any advice/suggestions/things to consider etc
Thanks in advance!
