Well we've done it!

Best of luck with the move and I hope you'll be very happy in your new bungalow.
It must be good - being near the coast!

Best of luck Kupari !

We downsized to a bungalow and moved 3 months ago after a very stressful year and lots of messing about.

Can’t recommend it too highly. It’s been fabulous ! I hope you find it so also!

How lovely for you * Kupari45* to live on the beautiful Northumberland coast. I imagine your family will be very frequent visitors! Enjoy your new home.

It sounds wonderful. Good luck with the move and enjoy your new home.

Many thanks for all your good wishes. When I finally signed the contracts yesterday I was so excited and relieved at the same time- just had to tell someone!
Will let you know in a few months how its going.
Thank you again for your kind messages.

Great news and hope you will all be very happy in your new home! ?

Good luck! We move from a 4 bed roomed house to a 2 bed roomed apartment in July so my advice if you need any?; read Marie Kondo's book about decluttering, it will help massively with the clearing out! Also, get as much help as possible with the packing up and employ a reputable removing company as it's worth every penny!

I’m green with envy, wishing you good luck, health and happiness

Wishing you all the best, Kupari. Northumberland is beautiful.

Sounds blissful. Hope it all goes well and I wish you every happiness

It’s a lovely part of the world. If I didn’t live where I do now, Northumberland would be my next choice. So much history, sea and islands, lovely people.

Best of luck in your new home ?

I wish you all the best in your new life.

Best wishes for your new home and life!
We downsized 18 months ago and have never regretted it, especially the downsizing of housework. We enjoyed the challenge of the new garden.
We have kept our Holiday house on the coast, which is now larger than our main residence!

Congratulations Kupari, every happiness in your new home.

That’s good news kupari, wishing you many happy times in your new home. x

All the very best for you, Kupari. Am in the middle of a move, too, so you have all my good wishes!

I know Embleton village too . How lovely for you Kupari wishing you lots of luck and happiness in your new venture.

Love the Northumberland coast, you have great taste! Wishing you every happiness in your new home.

Hope the move goes well kupari We'll raise a glass to you at the York meet-up!

Very best wishes for a smooth move and much happiness in your new home. Like Luckygirl, we moved 18 months ago and the garage is still half full of not-yet-unpacked boxes - too busy enjoying our new abode to worry about them! So, take it easy and don't feel compelled to rush at it. It's only "stuff" after all!

All the best for your move, I love Northumberland, almost as much as I love Kintyre.

I know Embleton too - lucky you! I'm sure you'll soon get over all the stress.
I've been looking in rural Northumberland too.
I know how it feels - we're still in the middle of it, but at least haven't had to experience chains breaking down.

I love that part of the Northumberland coast. I am . We would love to live at the seaside. Good luck with the move, and every happiness in your new home.

Well done Kupari, and best wishes to you in your new home. I would quite like to move, nearer to town centre, we are only a mile away, but it would be so convenient. DH is stuck on being here, so a move is probably not on the cards just now. We will have been here 50 years this Oct. Oh my, they will have to prise us out, if and when.

Congratulations. We did the move 18 months ago and it was very stressful and tiring so I can still remember the relief when it’s all signed and sealed. Hope the move goes smoothly.
