"I'm lucky - 20 minutes of running and I am in to country lanes. 30 minutes of driving and I'm on a beach. 30 minutes of walking and I'm in the centre of a city that isn't huge so is urban enough for me" I dont have it too bad really. I live in the city centre but there are parks and gardens I can walk to. The beach has a big fancy promenade which means its always busy. Ive got big Arthur's Seat to climb but its covered in tourists or stones. I like to feel like im the only person there sometimes  | |||

"I couldn't choose! I love a cool, shaded beech wood where the green leaves of the trees are letting in dappled sunlight onto the wood floor, and everything around feels like it's taking in a long deep breath. Or a rolling field or meadow, all long grass and wildflowers, or crop of barley waving in the light breeze, the rustle whispering the whole reach of the field as if telling you a secret. Sloe berry picking from the hedgerows after first frost in readiness for Christmas gin-making, the gurgling of a brook and rustle of a vole through the reeds, or river whooshing against rocks so you can't quite hear yourself. Vast skies and baked, parched saltmarsh under your bare feet as you walk towards the beach, the pull of sand as you stride up into a dune, prickling marram grass catching your leg, until you reach the peak and then the sand and coastline stretched out before you as far as you can see. I could go on. I adore being out of the urban environment. Although I have great love of the city landscape too -- I'm a bit of a romantic in how I experience my immediate surroundings, with an excitable imagination. "Wanna jump on my bike? I'll show you what Scotland has to offer. You'll love it. | |||

"My whole game plan is to move to Sussex because it's coastal and rural/semi rural. I thought about the West Country but it too cloudy and rainy. Sussex is the sunniest place in the uk which is the other biggest priority. I've never liked densely populated areas and hate cities, crowds, traffic and LOVE natural surroundings and wildlife. I love the peaceful tranquility it evokes. Nice thread "That's it thought. I like just hearing nothing. I also really really like darkness. There's places up north so far removed from artificial light the sky looks completely different at night, the stars can be seen so clearly! | |||

"I'm not really a coastal person. Where I grew up there were acres of countryside and beautiful woods. That to me is bliss. And if I wanted to get into a more urbanised area it was only a fifteen minute drive away. Having said that I do miss Cults. Where I am now is good - I'm in the countryside, under a hour away from an AONB and two major cities. In the Spring, I can walk five minutes and be surrounded by the beautiful aroma of bluebells and the earthy rawness of the woods. Come summer and the blossoming fields are a delight to walk in at evening. And Waitrose is about ten minutes away. "Sounds heavenly. I love a Waitrose | |||

"I like the outdoors and I don't think there's a need to choose between the coast and the country - especially in this country where everything is so close together. I was born and raised in NYC, so I'll always be a city girl. I like the anonymity of crowds, I like the vibrancy and the fast pace of living, I like the different people and personalities. But my parents also have a country house we used to go to every weekend and for 2 months in the summer in upstate New York. It's very rural, on 3 acres of land and on a river. I lived for the times I got to spend there - pure happiness was heading to the lake and swimming under the trees. I guess what I'm saying is that I like it all. And with a car, I can have I all. Traveling around is my favorite pastime. "That's really cool to be able to appreciate everything for what it is x | |||

"We live in the countryside which I love, we have long country walks and picnics with some beautiful views, we have often thought about living closer to a beach but I think it would get to busy during the summer months for us. We can get to a beach in under an hour but it's not really a favourite of hours so it's closer to two hour trip to the south coast for us. For now at least we'll keep the coast for holidays." Yeah that's kinda cool too. At least your holidays are different to home life! Ive never really lived in the countryside but it definitely appeals. | |||

"I grew up in Brum, ended up in Hertfordshire via London which I suspect explains why I will always choose countryside over the coast simply because the coast has always been too far away to spend too much there. If I am on the coast beaches bore me and I;ll always seek out cliff paths and coastal walks. I love been out in the countryside, be it walking, running or cycling. Ideally somewhere isolated where I;ll see more animals than people" I have to say I grew up next to a rocky beach and I do prefer that to sand, its more interesting to walk. Saying that a wee handheld moonlight stroll on the sand wouldn't go amiss sometimes! | |||

"I'm around a couple of hours drive of most places I could want to go... but I will always choose the coast
I think if I was forced it would be coast for me. You can get lost just sitting watching the waves
Yep! They can be hypnotic and beautifully calming or powerfull, raw and ferociously invigorating. Or if I am lucky, just right to get amongst them for a surf
Haha I was actually gonna ask if you surfed but then thought it was silly cos you didn't mention being in the actual water! You must give off a surfy vibe!
Could be. Or maybe it's my increasingly hippyish tendencies and leanings I'm not quite calling folks Dude all the time though... yet "And also I looked at your pics after I posted this so maybe they had subconsciously implanted in my brain | |||

"I couldn't choose! I love a cool, shaded beech wood where the green leaves of the trees are letting in dappled sunlight onto the wood floor, and everything around feels like it's taking in a long deep breath. Or a rolling field or meadow, all long grass and wildflowers, or crop of barley waving in the light breeze, the rustle whispering the whole reach of the field as if telling you a secret. Sloe berry picking from the hedgerows after first frost in readiness for Christmas gin-making, the gurgling of a brook and rustle of a vole through the reeds, or river whooshing against rocks so you can't quite hear yourself. Vast skies and baked, parched saltmarsh under your bare feet as you walk towards the beach, the pull of sand as you stride up into a dune, prickling marram grass catching your leg, until you reach the peak and then the sand and coastline stretched out before you as far as you can see. I could go on. I adore being out of the urban environment. Although I have great love of the city landscape too -- I'm a bit of a romantic in how I experience my immediate surroundings, with an excitable imagination.
Wanna jump on my bike? I'll show you what Scotland has to offer. You'll love it. "Can I come.... can come on my own bike :D | |||

"Well always liveing in land it was always nice to see the coast or sea but I like the countryside to, when on holiday with parents we went out normally on holiday at specific times of the year at one time it was mainly june/july/august occasionally in september, then in later years it was in may I,ve loved to see the seasons change and the associated flora with it and a love of nature is something I,ll always have mainly simple things I,ve had more pleasure from in life and found it more rewarding for my being. " Aw me too. I think its good to be able to appreciate the beauty in things we have on earth not things we make. | |||
