Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in United Kingdom

It is a quiet area, with both students and families. Everyone is friendly, and although it is not the nicest area of Cardiff it feels safe. My road led out to Albany Road, a major shopping street and also Wellfield Road, and between these two there wasn't any need to venture into the town centre as all the essentials were a 5 minutes walk away. A lot of the shops are locally owned as well, and so it is nice to be able to get to know the people who work there and it makes it feel so much more homely.

Lovely area. Great amenities. Park close by. Neighbours outside of the block of flats were nice. I did get my car smashed into though and they drove off but..
I miss the area as it was a nice walking distance to places.

Nice area.
The neighbours are nice enough, didn't really speak to them during tenancy.

Had no problems with the area, it was very close to the university and train station so ideal on that front.

The Redand area is convenient and sought after to live in as it is has lots of buses going through it as well as a train station and plenty of shops, cafes and bars. It can be a bit loud at night, depending on where you live, but nowhere near as loud as Stokes Croft or some parts of St Pauls. Parking can be tricky and some houses and cars get broken into if they are not alarmed but that is true of all of Bristol, really.

The area is well-connected in terms of buses (although these get stuck in traffic so travel times are unpredictable) and is about a half an hour walk from the train station and about 40 min to the centre. Would be ok for cyclists as they can avoid traffic problems.

Very central, overall a nice area to live in as it's very close to Parkers Piece and some nice pubs and restaurants.

The street was always dirty and with screaming random people at night time.
Very closed to Cabot Circus.

St Werburgh's is a nice neighbourhood, with plenty of green spaces and friendly smiling people. If you move here, remember to smile to people too!

The house location itself is a bit of a pain because you have to go up+down a steep hill to get to it. That gets tiring quickly.

A bit dodgy - graffiti on the windows, kids hanging out smoking on my doorstop, or rattling the door at night. Great for shops and restaurants though, and I always got on well with the neighbours
