And Relax…Where to Buy for Later Life

Other quality of life issues, such as good GP practices, also make a big difference.

“Pembrokeshire has the lowest crime rate in the UK, so it is safe to walk the streets and people can feel secure in their homes”, says Carol Peett of buying agent, West Wales PropertyFinders.  There is also a ready supply of bungalows suitable for retirees, as well as small, easy to manage houses and flats which are affordable”.

 Alongside the great landscapes and friendly towns, the equity released from selling a family home will go a long way in areas such as Tenby, in Pembrokeshire, which is popular among downsizers.  Two bedroom bungalows start from £250,000, and a two bedroom home in a development for over 55s can go for just £85,000.
