    As a Malaysian mature student who studied in UK, I use to live in Lewes, East Sussex. Best small town to live in. Other small towns I visited were, Rye, Littlehampton, Arundel, Burgess Hill and Alfriston.

      Lewis is like a second home to me. Miss the place. Been there twice ever since. Children went to schools there. I am now a pensioner, my children are working as a Pharmacist, Automation technician and a Geologist. Cheers.

    Agree with some on this list! Henley On Thames, Bakewell, Warwick, but in my opinion Keswick in The Lake District is the best of all. Beautifully clean and has everything you need, just a few minutes walk from the town centre and your at Derwent water with stunning scenery. Love it and have great memories.

    This is a mishmash of villages (Painswick) to tourist towns (most of the rest). Some are quite large, such as Sevenoaks. But Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk is excellent. In the same county, Woodbridge (home of Sutton Hoo) is fab. Then you could have Clare, Long Melton, Sudbury, Saxmundham, and Kersey. My home county, Suffolk, has loads of beautiful places. I was hoping for something insightful but no. Where were Ely, Henley in Arden, Stratford on Avon, Chester, Harrogate, Wye, and a host of excellent places?

    • @tancreddehauteville764

      Exactly - these are just very expensive places. I live near both Henley and Windsor and both have their fair share of trouble after dark.
