TBH 5 years ago we weren't thinking about leaving London at all.
3 years ago we were tired of the place (the noise, traffic, cost) and we made the move to Bath.
And less than a year ago we realised that all the things we really were looking for - nice big house, decent garden, close to sea, close to nice countryside and places to visit and go camping - were all MUCH cheaper in Northern Ireland...
I have a sneaking suspicion that 15 years from now we'll be in a 1 pub village on the west coast of ireland somewhere.
But for now this is all good :)

That sounds wonderful.
I've moved to a place without traffic or noise (yeah really) but still love the vibrancy London offers too much. I imagine there will come a day when I have had enough of it all and want an even quieter life (the amount of people who drop litter round here is still a trigger for me) and may end up converting some building (thinking chapel) in rural Norfolk.
Love Bath, were visiting a fair bit, staying in an awesome B n B called the Dye house.
Stunning.
Not sure I could ever leave London but shots like that make me feel it could be possible some day...
