Anyone here done the 'bungalow by the sea' thing or any other retirement moving plan once the shackles of employment are gone? Or have you done it before you stop work?
My nan was saying to me that at 76, she would still consider moving to live by the sea if she had the opportunity despite the work involved. Her dream is to have an apartment overlooking Looe harbour, where she went for her honeymoon in the 40's.
Im not sure she will ever get there as she is reliant on the rest of the family, but my wife and I have a desire to up sticks and move down the south west when we retire, downsizing on the way to something manageable on a pension.
Is the modern day equiv the moving to Spain/France nowadays? That being said, I read thats not as trouble free as many hoped.
