Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in United Kingdom

Skelmersdale- need I say more? Never felt safe, kids smoking dope & riding scooters over the road!

Area ok but other neighbours a nightmare! Noisy adult kids, mowing lawn at 10pm! Pub ok

Quiet zone. We had a rail&ride section so we could stop the bus in front of the house. The neighbours were very friendly and very nice. They were in their 50's.

Cathays is a student village- expect nothing less than litter- especially on dustbin day.

Wuiet reidential area close to public transport links and retail shops, not much else in area but does have ocassion events in eston.

Apparently the qhile road is mould ridden according to a neighbour. Very muddy road, dont bother buying any decent shoes.

Good transport, but the opposite of "up and coming". Tube line is regular but one of the worst. Large family houses overpriced resulting in multiple occupants with aggressive attitudes and parking, and little interest in the area.

Ashley down is now expensive to live in so when this came up I jumped on it. I love ashley down road and always will. The local co op is sky high so go to the tescos a mile up the road instead or even the new Lidl and home bargains etc and you will save massively. The pubs are generic and gentrified but the golden lion has character and is worth a bash as it seems to be the only live music pub in the area! There's a corner shop that I grew to love in the end. Open till 2am most nights. Takeaways wise the Southern fried chicken and pizza place ( opposite Sainsbury's) is the best for pizza, very very good pizza and cheap. Dominos is twice the price and not as good! There's a few chipys and there all stingy portions aside the posh one near Sainsbury's which gives a massive portion for like 8 quid. Avoid the maxin chicken place. All the Currys and Chinese places are medium average quality i dont reccomend. There's a veg shop that's the best in bristol and cheap also! I will miss living here literally the area has it all, there's no trouble at all

There's a bus stop close to the house (3 mins walk). It's relatively close to Sainsbury which is good. Only downside is that the neighbourhood is close to the sewage plant so the smell can be bad sometimes!

Great local area. Lots of amenities, shopping very good and excellent public transport links
