wouldnt touch it with a bargepole , hope that answers though you would get a huge house for pennys... it is a bit out of town also, way by bell block i'd say 20 minutes atleast.

i can vouch for inglewood as i live here, i wouldnt stay in np its self now after being here, I like the far enough out of town but close enough feel if you know what i mean. Its just so friendly here so you wont have to worry about that , every day i walk to work and everyone says good morning etc , i love it.. also im only 15 minutes to beach so being out of town doesnt make a difference for me going there atall as its a lovely drive there

I thank for that, really helps

What do folk do for entertainment, what is tv like,(can't be much worse than the 100 or so channel of rubbish I watch at the mo), are there any 'pubs'.

I know I sound like I am talking about a third world country but you never know what to expect. (Hope you know what I mean), Its all so new.

HA Ha Ha Well where do we start there's always something happening here...
Plus you have the Beach/Aquatic Centre/Parks/Rivers/Walkway and lots more to keep you entertained as for the TV well its pretty crap here to 80 odd channels and nothing on most of the time!!!!!
Plenty of Pubs and Resturants everything catered for really Chinese/Indian/Pizza/Italian/Thai you name it it's here along with all the facourites (YUK) McD's, BK, KFC

Hi there, tv's not that brilliant here so we don't watch a lot of it, we tend to us a dvd rental company who send dvd's by post (not sure if i can mention them on here ) which is excellent. We have friends round or talk to people in UK on line so don't bank on the tv to much Unless you enjoy American stuff on satellite channel

Thanks for that, all sounds pretty good to me.

At the moment we have a stack of dvd's that would reach the top of Blackpool Tower. (maybe a bit of an exaggeration) so that sound great to me.

Hi everyone in NP, been looking at property in Inglewood but someone has told me some negatives about this area. Can anyone enlighten me anymore please or are they just being really negative. We have an appointment to look at a house there at the weekend, dont want to start off with the wrong outlook.

hi steph

i live in inglewood and its a fantastic wee town,we love it that much we have bought a section here. you used to be able to buy houses here cheaper than np town but now on a par, alot of people want to move here. got all the shops you need on your doorstep but only 12 minutes into town for weekly shop and beaches etc, everyone very friendly etc

what street is it you are going to view house ??

We looked to buy a house there but in the end the house came with 4 acres of land and we decided it was to much.. upper dudley road is 2 minutes from me on the outskirts of inglewood( my house one of last few on main road) so more in the country kinda thing you would need your car to drive to mainstreet inglewood but only 2 minutes drive so not bad atall. we would of bought the house if it had come with less land to be honest. inglweood has a great wee community , we just love it. i work in macfarlanes on the main street you will see it driving through town to get to house you wanting to see., there is a street called faber place and its all new brick houses , im sure one up for rent its a 3 bed im sure it was harcourts and i think 350 a week though dont hold me to that.

how cool if you move here though , atleast you will know me lol

Thanks for that Caz, this house has 1.75acres which is great, we have 3 kids under 5 so we wanted plenty of land so they can go wild in the garden lol.
We rent here at the moment and have no garden, now are ready to buy, i just want to clean my own house and not someone elses for a change ha ha.
Looking forward to some space around us for a change. We have 5 houses around the area to look at this weekend so really excited.
Bonus to know your in the area

CarolineSwan

awww thats great then , i think i know the house..is it the brick one? ive seen it on a flyer if it is... we ended up buying just half an acre, 4 was just 2 much grass to mow lol... in inglewood most houses seem to have lots of land not squashed in the way they are in main town... there are like everywhere some real sheds though so dont be put off cos there are plenty lovely houses too all in all a fab town
