Sleepy little town

Hi all,

I'm still not done with the restoration of my 1G Lude, but I'm already preparing for my next mission - the move to the UK. I'm looking for some advice on where I should go. As I have always lived in the country here in Hungary I'd like to stick to this tradition and find a nice village/town with 'relatively reasonable' employment possibilities (I plan to start my own business once established, so I'm not looking for anything special job-wise), yet not much crowd, not a lot of noise, a little space for a bitta' privacy, etc. It can be anywhere between Ramsgate and Ullapool...
I was looking at google earth and spotted places like Perth in SCO, or actually visited a few places Carlisle (which I quite liked) and Inverness to name some of the bigger towns but I'm open for any ideas you guys might have.
Cheeahz'!

Sounds good for a start. Thanks Craig!
Anybody else? What about Wales? Or no one lives there anymore except Richard Hammond?

Hey dude. The Eastern Region is doing OK. I am in the South East, but Essex in general has LOTS of rural areas heading mid to North, then you are into Suffolk.

Many start up businesses and networking opportunities.

Thanks, Jay!
I need more ideas as I'm still at the point where I'd just lay the map of the UK out in front of me, throw a dart at it from 6 feet away and go to where it lands.

If it's rural you're after, then there's definitely more room further north! I'm in Dunfermline, which is placed for an easy commute to Edinburgh/Perth and is within easy reach of Glasgow/Dundee. I'm also 5 mins drive from Knockhill race track

Scotland is in fact hugely tempting...
Apart from the weather.

If I had the choice, and I was restoring a Honda, I'd probably live at the end of PAW's road...

Actually, the Cotswolds are nice
