The problem with somewhere like Sandbanks is someone is always demolishing a house and rebuilding on the land! They’re all at it. But yes, I’ve been through there many times, catching the ferry over to Swanage and beyond, and it is a beautiful part of the country.
I don’t know where I’d rather be. Not thought about it.
Beautiful , i like muddybanks
Me and Mrs Fox would go and live in Guernsey at the drop of a hat if they’d have us. Apparently you need quite a lot of brass and they are very fussy who they let in.
The weather can be rubbish though, and the traffic in summertime is outrageous. I never drove while I was there and walked everywhere. The Island is only five miles across and about ten miles long. Well within walking and jogging distance for me. The bus service is brilliant, and it’s like stepping back in time, totally stressless for Mrs Fox and me. A nice clifftop cabin would do us fine, close to the cliff path which goes right around the island.
We used to go every year until covid, and now we’ve let our passports run out.
Tough question. It would have to be where english
Is widely spoken . Next it would have to have a warm climate with good services like hospital, transport , restaurant’s, shops etc. can’t actually say I have not found anywhere abroad I would like to live near a beach
Guernsey is a wonderful place Foxy, green, lush and very largely unspoiled. As you say you’d need a pretty healthy bank account to move there, the islanders won’t be having the pleasure of my company 
I don’t know what the criteria are for obtaining residency, I’ll have to have a Google later and enlighten myself 
Yep…My shangri-La Chilli…
Ravello, on the Amalfi coast, but only during the Summer months.
I’m not sure if I posted image correctly!
Ok. I made it. 
Beautiful rose….ive travelled , but never to italy !
We visited the Leaning Tower, Florence and Rome during a cruise, I liked what I saw but Mum and Dad loved Sorrento but we didn’t go there, and I would love to visit and spend more time in Italy than you get during a cruise.
Foxy’s world tour…
I need to have a word with the advertising agency, nobody’s turned up…
I too loved Sorrento. Mum and I stayed there for a holiday once, as well as doing day trips from tours.
I’m staying where I am . I already have a sea view.
Yes sorry I know I’m being boring.
I understand ripple
Im staying put also,
But if it was 20 yrs ago before hubbys illness
I would def be going somewhere warmer than the uk with another sea view
I have been a few beach places. Possibly one is the Taiwan on the South Coast. Also on the beach of the very coast of Spain - beyond of Gibraltar (Tarifa.)
Hawai’i and Seward Alaska (though still the U.S) are mind-blowing beautiful, but I’m mostly content with my little getaway place where the dogs can run and the travel time is 30 minutes in the minivan.
Im happy now ,with my beachfront appartment in sussex
Ive been here a year now !!
I think this will be the last of my moves
Looks very satisfactory Cosmos! 
Brings back memories, Pevensey and Hastings to the east and Brighton to the west.
I used to cycle over those seven sisters, I’m sorely tempted…
Beautiful pictures thanks for sharing.
I have spent most of my life by the sea in tropical Asia but I do not like the sea water in Thailand, or the Philippines it is way too hot and often around 28 or 29 degrees, which is way too hot for me to swim in, not mentioning the occasional sharks. And the need for round the clock aircoms in summer.
So we are considering retiring in the South of France where the sea water is normally no warmer than 25 or 26. I would also consider the medical facilities and cultural events availability.
Having visited many beaches throughout the world, I am very content to stay here on the Sussex coast where I have pitched camp. Although during a rare harsh Sussex winter Hawaii comes a close second.
