We lived in Layer De La Have for 15 years, it's a lovely side of town because it has easy access to everything within a short drive and traffic is pretty good that side of town.

I think the company is in Earls Colne. He has an interview in a couple of weeks so we will have to see what the company is like and how much money they are offering.

We don’t need schools but we would like rural type area. I know nothing about that area at all. I have been told to avoid Braintree but I have no idea why.

If it is Earles Colne then there is also White Colne near by which is very rural and has some lovely walks or it is not that far from Coggeshall which is a lovely old village.

Earls Colne is pretty. I would def recommend Halstead then as you’re only 10 min away. There are lots of nice villages local, Colne Engaine, Pebmarsh, White Colne.
Braintree isn’t bad but there are lots of nicer village areas. |

OK forget Colchester. You need to visit the area and drive round the villages. Depending on your budget there may not be a lot of property to chose from. Above £500,000 you should be alright.

We have also lived in both Halstead and Earls Colne, I personally don't think Halstead is as nice as it used to be, but I think that follows for a lot of towns, Colchester certainly isn't, which I have lived in for the rest of my adult life. However as said before, there are some lovely areas around the Earls Colne area, both rural and semi-rural, and if you want a bit more going on, then Coggeshall is a very nice village and only a short drive to Earls Colne. I would start looking from Eight Ash Green onwards, this road taking you through Chapel, the Colnes and then onto Halstead. Coggeshall is off a busy road that leads to Braintree, but Coggeshall itself is far enough away for the road not to be an issue and you can cut through to Earls Colne from there past the Earls Colne Golf Club. There are other nice villages around that area as well ie. Stisted.

Just as a thought, we are currently living in Bures which is on the Suffolk border (we get about haha), lovely scenery there and although it is a little further to Earls Colne, should only take around 15 minutes, through country lanes and then you will join the Halstead road at Chappel and from there onto Earls Colne, so a very pleasant drive and no build ups of traffic. Also good access to the train stations at Colchester and Marks Tey if you need them at all.
