Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in United Kingdom

It is a quiet neighbourhood, I have never had any issue at all, I personally love the area.

I like the area, I feel happy there. The issue is the landlord and the property that has put me into the situation I am at the moment

Nice neighbourhood, safe, clean, some neighbours were very friendly, some not so much, but mostly holiday lets.
Coastal walks great though!

The house was semidetached so I was confident there would have been little chance of being annoyed by noise. Boy, was I wrong! (even the previous tenant warned me, but I was in a desperate rush to find an accomodation, in the nightmarish market situation, and having to live in student accomodations) The spanish couple living downstairs was so lousy and loud, they were animals. Constantly shouting and slamming doors (and I was in constant rage, a big toll on my mental health and no quiet at all, and they went on repeatedly for many nights, often until 3AM-4AM), no way a reasoning with them in a civil manner, not even stomping on the floor and shouting at them to stfu was enough. No way of calling the police on them (they were not playing music at max level, it was that grey area in which you're unfortunately not protected by the law, and you know.. The racist feudal lord has not been very helpful, or friendly at all). You may imagine how many times I wished I could have killed them, the constant rage of being powerless against some weirdos, I wonder how you can even have a job and stay up all night pretty much every other day, I even tried to retaliate, stomping on the floor and timing the laundry machine, and it was effective (that's how you reason with animals) for a bit, but then they started again and I lost it completely and instead of leaving explosives into their letterbox or just kicking the guy's ass to really send the message through (I'm not that kind of person, but with these primates that's the only thing they understand) I finally decided to just *ucking leave and change job and town. What a rollercoaster.

Lovely neighbours no complaints in this area

The addition of a Sainsburys downstairs was great. So close to the train station. Easy walk to castle park. Only issue is the noise from people leaving motion if you're on one of the lower floors and sleep with the window open.

Near Mill Rd. great area.

Widcombe is basically perfect as a Bath student, especially with the new Morrisons.

Have absolutely loved it here. Brilliant area. Super easy, safe walk to the Bath Uni campus too if you're able to deal with the hill and take it slow.

It's rather loud at times and you do get the occasional drunk hooliganism but it's usually not a problem.

Decent neighbours, fairly quiet. OK transport links. Close to shops and local High Street.

Quiet but slightly isolated community
