Best places to live in Warks and the Midlands revealed

20 TOWNS, SUBURBS AND VILLAGES IN WARWICKSHI­RE MADE THE CUT

- By RACHEL STRETTON

VIBRANT towns and cosy villages have been named Warwickshi­re’s best places to live. Although the list could cause some controvers­y as only one area of Coventry made it into a similar list for the West Midlands.

Lifestyle website Muddy Stilettos has named its top 250 places to live in 2023, and it includes 10 places in Warwickshi­re, from the county town of Warwick to villages such as Dunchurch and Brinklow.

But a list of the best places to live in the West Midlands omits Coventry, instead selecting places such as Knowle, Sutton Coldfield, Coleshill and Bournevill­e.

The list points to the RSC in Stratford as well as proximity to Coventry’s universiti­es and Birmingham’s nightlife as the reason for Warwickshi­re’s popularity.

It states: “With mediaeval gem Warwick Castle, rivers, ancient woodlands and beautifull­y preserved manor houses, Warwickshi­re has plenty of stylish boltholes to write home about.”

The list aims to draw on local knowledge and insight into what it claims are the 28 most sought-after counties in England, to guide potential buyers to the local hotspots and up-and-coming areas.

Hero Brown, the founder and Editorin-chief of Muddy Stilettos said: “When people decide to move, they’re searching for more than just a house - they want a home, a lifestyle that works for them and their family, and if they’re strategic, a long-term investment too. Our ‘2023 Top 250 Best Places to Live’ guide will give them that extra reassuranc­e they need to make their search easier in these difficult economic times.”
