Nice places to live near Bristol, UK

We might be moving there in the near future and the only place Ive ever been anywhere near there is Cheddar gorge, Stonehenge etc. Does anyone know where the better areas are and where to stay away from? I dont mind whether town or village and it shouldnt be too long of a commute to Bristol
Thanks

move to Clifton in Bristol. It's the nicest part of the city, but with loads of parks, bars, restaurants etc and walkable to city centre. Very nice part of the world.

Clifton?
If you have the money and can put up with posh twats living there.

You want to be in inner Bristol, City of Bristol, within the built up area? Within an an hour-ish commute?
You want to be in a town , a village?
You want countryside, the Coast?
You have children to go to school?
You want somehwere cheap-ish? To buy, to rent?

etc etc

Just keep off moi laaaaand!

Clifton is a lovely area to live in, near the coast, however rather rural and remote from the feel of it! As MT said, depends what you're looking for and what you consider 'better'.

I have a 7 month old son so Id prefer to be somewhere not in the city centre...Im more of a suburbs/small town/village person

Shala00, is it your partner communting to work in Bristol while you look after your young 'un at home?
Are you going to buy or rent?

And whereabouts in Bristol should it be easy to get to?
Bristol is in the top 10 of British cities and if you live on the "wrong" side to work it is a nightmare commute.

Yes My husband would be working in Filton at the Airbus Plant and I would be home with baby. I like to mix with other people though. We are looking to rent first and then buy pretty soonish. I would also hopefully start work again when bub is a bit older

I guessed Filton!

Don't know that side as well, tbh. you've a whole swathe of country side to look at as the connections to Filton aren't bad by car or train.
NOT Yate or Chippenham!

My folks live in Warminster & Dad commutes each day to Filton. He normally drives leaving around 715 or so.
As a warning, the trains in the area are shocking for commuters. Just a thought.

Bath is a really nice city to live in & around half an hour if not less from Bristol.

I lived over the Severn Bridge in Chepstow which is a commuter area to Bristol. Stay away from the St Pauls area that is not the best area, Clifton is a nice area but a bit pricey.

I've got mates who live in St Pauls.
It's a classic inner city area with a high migrant population, poverty, crime.

It's not leafy suburbia for sure but it is home to a lot of people.
Developers have their eye on it though and it is on the cusp of enjoying the "benefits" of gentrification.
