As if the entire South of England is some idyllic paradise!

Most areas of Southport are nice.

It all depends on what YOU want and need.

True enough...Property prices also go some way towards keeping the more undesirable elements at bay.

There is much to be said for life on the coast:

* Fresh air arrives straight off the sea - well, most of the time.

* More sunshine than living further inland, hence 'Sunny Southport'.

* Milder temperatures thanks to the Gulf Stream effect.

* No pesky hills to negotiate either.

* Many miles of dunes, pinewoods and bracing coastal walks to enjoy.
