An invaluable new guide for anyone approaching retirement who prefers to stay in Britain rather than move abroad, but who sees a change of scenery and a fresh beginning as essential for this transitional point in their lives. The first part of the book explores how retirement in the 21st Century has been reinterpreted by the baby boomers as a period of many different activities and new opportunities, the advantages of staying in Britain for retirement, retirement economics: including pensions and how to use your current home to fund retirement; property: including aspects of specialised retirement property, extra costs of retiring by the sea; how to choose where to retire: based on the local property market, climate, healthcare concerns and the range and quality of recreation in the surrounding area. Britain has an astonishing range of places to retire to, from Sidmouth to the Shetland Isles, and the second part of the book contains profiles of some 60 places you could choose. Each place featured receives a detailed description, a first-hand account by someone who has retired there plus, a useful fact file of the local and nearest transport connections, service providers and other essential information required when deciding Where to Retire in Britain.
