It's likely to appeal more to those who value countryside and market-town living than fast city amenities.

Health & support

• Family & connection: As with any move, it's worth weighing how close family and friends are, and how easy it would be for them to visit regularly.

Finances & daily life

Things to weigh up

• Care home quality: Of the 16 homes listed, 14 are rated good, but one is rated as requiring improvement and one is not yet inspected, so it's worth checking individual ratings closely.
