Bristol ? Where to live?

Question

we are shortly relocating to the Bristol area and having never even visited before have no idea of the area or what it is like i would love it if someone could give us some ideas of where to start looking we are renting to start with with a budget of around £750 per month and would love either a sea or river view or somewhere picturesque that would be suitable for dog walking any help would be very much appreciated.

Answer 1

Bristol is a lovely city with loads of open space. The Downs, Ashton Court, Snuff Mills, Blaise Castle Woods are all excellent dog walking areas and there are loads of other places too.

The local paper is the Bristol Evening Post http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/

And probably the first place to look for somewhwere to live.

Answer 2

Best advice I can give is AVOID BRISTOL

Answer 3

not near the airport

Answer 4

You may find your budget is on the low side as rental prices are high.Try Bristol Evening Post online and look for the property rental section. Good areas are Clifton,Redland,Harbourside with waterfront properties, Westbury-On-Trym, Stoke Bishop, Henleaze,Southville. or look at nearby Portishead, Weston-Super-Mare or Cleavdon if you want a sea view.plus lots more. Buy a city map or look on line I think Bristol has a good website Good luck
