Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in United Kingdom

I love the area, but find a different place to live in it. I would happily move in next door, just so long as I can warn every new tenant to get out without paying their last 2 months of rent.

Ok area, a bit rough but charming. Bus stop nearby, with a train station 30 minute walk away, at the university. 5 minute walk to a Spar, but there was a corner shop 100m away. I tended to walk to Aldi, 20 minuets away. Behind us was the River Irwell and the flood plain was nice for walking. We were located just outside the Manchester eruv. The area was described to us as "safe, but come on, it's still Manchester."

Good transport links (I don't drive but still managed to regularly travel to both Glasgow and Edinburgh easily, and beyond too when necessary).

ScotRail was limited on a couple of occasions in heavy snow but not much anyone can do about that. Local roads get interesting in winter with ice and heavy snow but it's Scotland, if you expect anything else you're kidding yourself.

20 minutes walk to the edge of Norwich City Centre, 15 mins walk to the train station / Morrisons / retail Park / leisure centre / cinema /restaurants. Great location, there's a short footpath up to the main road just outside the flat. This always felt safe.
Delivery drivers sometimes get a bit lost with the flat numbering system because there are 3 roads and Glendenning is at the end of the long cul-de-sac.

Brilliant love it, lived in this area for 14 years. Easy access for me to major routes, parks and shops.

Fairly quiet residential streets, close to the Urgent Care Centre, a couple of schools, a children's centre, a park, a playground and a relatively short walk from a decent selection of grocery shops, takeaways, vets, doctors, dentists and newsagents.

Great transport links, handy high street shops, area improving. Near to a local park, decent neighbours.

The area is thought to be a bit 'posh' to locals surrounding the development. There are no public transport links in the development and it's a 5 minute walk to the bus stop. Shops and schools a mile away in the main village.

On the whole very good. Great location, mostly good locals. Fab shops and very close to the sea. Was the main reason I moved there. Can get noisy sometimes due to the close proximity of the pubs, but I knew that when I moved in and it wasn't too bad.

Leamington is lovely but not at the cost of these landlords. Perfect location for a student house but not worth it.
