Some good friends of mine moved out there to buy after being priced out of bits of Essex closer into London. They like their street and immediate neighbours but they find the seaside a bit much, particularly in the summer. Traffic is terrible and it’s less walkable that you would think. They don’t have kids yet but I don’t think they are that excited about the schools.

I was looking at whistable when I was thinking about moving back to the uk. It’s on the high speed line (ok expensive and not that fast), good schools, amazing period property and a nice town. All of those Kent/ Thanet seaside towns are worth a look imo.

Anyone live/d or near South End or Leigh-on-Sea?
We go to South End occasionally as it's an easy trip and we like beach and water. Mainly breakfast then down to the end past all the arcades. Average primary schools and covid have us toying with the idea of moving at some point.
Places like Poole are too far away from my family and work opportunities, so that sort of area seemed worth thinking about.
Thoughts?
