Best place to live in Scotland?

We are thinking about moving to Scotland... our question is, where could we live where

1. It is in an area of natural beauty

2. House prices are reasonably low, so we can buy an isolated place with land

3. It isn't dead from a swinging point of view... say within an hour and a half of a club

Thanks for any ideas!

Fife

Plenty places in Fife.. You are within an hour and a half drive if all clubs in Scotland.

We have plenty of areas which are beautiful and pituresque.. Majority of villages.. House prices are reasonable

I’ve been looking at houses for the past few months so can give you a good handle on the Dumbarton/Helensburgh/Langbank areas. There are west of Glasgow all on the mainline train routes and decent roads, 30-40 minutes to Glasgow and very close to Loch Lomond. I’m looking for a 4-6 bedroom so the cost is around:

Helensburgh area - £320k upwards

Dumbarton/Alexandria/Balloch/Gartocharn - £250k

Langbank - (stunning place) - £230k

Hope that helps?

Perth

Perthshire has some of the most beautiful scenery, and is only 1 hour or so from Glasgow & Edinburgh. But WHY would you want to leave where you are??? Its a beautiful area. But good luck wherever you move to.

Somewhere between Perth and Crieff. Beautiful part of the country and with easy driving distance to CJ's (Glasgow), After8 (Edinburgh) and Kudos (Dundee).

I think Edinburgh is the best city, it’s beautiful upmarket and I think it’s the best city in the uk

Places I’d love to live would be St. Andrews, Crail, Dollar, Callander, fort William, Newport fife, so many little villages all over fife that are absolutely beautiful too

I’ve lived in the highlands and absolutely nothing compares to it but it comes with problems weather travel etc , I needed to travel 2 hours to get to my nearest hospital, not good

In my life plan in thinking a move too

Scotland is a beautiful place fullstop and theres so much choice. I live in north east fife so places like Cupar and it's small surrounding villages is beautiful. Newport as mentioned and then theres the coastal villages like crail, Anstruther ect.

Then theres perthshire. But consider areas of fife with its ease of transport times to various clubs.

Depends how far north you want to go. I work up in keilder Forest Park quiet often. To get there I go up into Scotland and drive through Roxburghshire & Dumfriesshire, it’s quite remote but absolutely stunning around there.

The boat has sailed for ‘reasonably cheap houses with land’. Depends on your idea of ‘reasonable’, I guess and what you want the land for.

Aberdeen

Perthshire, Inverness, Orkney for houses and still having large town close. And youll be surprised how naughty Mallaig and SKYE can be....it depends what your looking for. A few good regular friends, or a bag of sweets. You will find fun almost everywhere apart from the far north west.

As a Aberdonian I would say Aberdeen is going downhill, houses everywhere, the world moving in, will look like Bradford in 20 years. And houses too exspensive. An assumption everyones on 50k a year plus oil jobs. Most are not.......if you use my cost of Pie And Chips from Chipper Index...Aberdeen is too overpriced in every aspect.

Glasgow

Truth is there are hundreds of 'right middens' in Scotland and some very beautiful places too.

Glasgow is certainly the best city to live in and I know having lived in 4 of them!

Bradford? You're what's wrong with Scotland.

Try lanark area, along the clyde side, all wee country roads and plenty land and it's not far from plenty built up areas.

P.s. we stayed in Cromerty a few years ago.... only B&B we've been in where the breakfast table looked like it was going to collapse under the weight of food. And we were the only ones staying.

Well, let's not put to fine a point on it... enough that we can be naked and fuck without upsetting the neighbours.

Near the harbour

Have to say the border of highlands and moray ,rural properties galore but still within distance of major towns and cities ,The downside is the clubs ,yes 3 hours to glasgow Edinburgh but in my honest opinion a small compromise for the quality of life up here ,You swing 10 percent of the time ,You live 90 percent so quality of life wins ,best of both worlds in my opinion up here
