This.With lots of nice roads and stunning scenery. Scottich Highlands or Islands would do nicely.
My son wants to move to Isle of Skye for the sole reason there was not one Tescos, who he strongley believes are evil and are taking over the world. Good enough reason for me
Corner shop open late: Walking distance check
Decent pub: walking distance check
Good train service to London short commute: walking distance check
A road worth a blast: <5 Miles check
Supermarket: <5 Miles check
Countryside: <5 Miles check
Now I just need a house with 4 garages and im home free.

Here's mine, and it's what I have:
Decent golf course: don't play golf as much as I used to, but a few good ones within 15 miles
Goodvillage pub : Walking distance
Decent restaurant: Walking distance
A road worth a blast: <5 miles. In fact I need to go down them when I go to work.
[-]Waitrose[-/] Any food/beer shop: Walking distance (online for the big shops)
Ideally I would have things like strip clubs, more pubs (plus some on the bank of a river) and a bookies. But I live in a nice town, so am happy with what I've got. Never thought about it like that, so thanks OP.

A bloody good butchers <5miles (check until he closed down due to ill health I almost cried)
A friendly farmer that lets you borrow stuff < 1 mile (check)
I have a brilliant butchers within 5 miles of where I work, so often go there at lunch or after work.A friendly farmer that lets you borrow stuff < 1 mile (check)
Would this farmer let you borrow his tractor? I've always wanted to drive a tractor
I'm lucky enough to have most of what I need close at hand, but if this is about what I'd like, rather than what I have, it would be:
1. Mountains < 50 miles - currently 600 miles
2. A good Indian restaurant < 5 miles - currently unknown!
3. A trout fishery < 20 miles - currently 250 miles
4. A forest < 20 miles - currently 50 miles
5. An NFL franchise < 30 miles - currently 80 miles
