Norwich is legitimately a very good city. Plenty of food and drink options, a busy market, excellent coffee, great pubs, art galleries and events everywhere, cheap cost of living, train into London isn't too arduous, good array of local businesses, etc etc. OTOH I've never really got on with Cambridge.

What alternatives would you suggest?
What we are looking for is a middle-ground between London and the village of <2k people we've moved to outside Cambridge. Just not feeling village life - especially this village - or Cambridge more generally, despite (or perhaps because of) having grown up nearby.
Both of us have ageing parents nearby so wouldn't want to move too far away. Being closer to the coast and in a university town with all that brings is attractive.
