Relocation Assistance Needed

Hello everyone,

Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I’m reaching out for advice as my company will be relocating to Harwell Didcot in a few months, and my wife and I will be moving with them.

Since we are not familiar with the area, we would love your input on the best places to live that are commutable to Harwell. We’re looking for a location that offers social opportunities (activity clubs and community access), a good gym, and is reasonably affordable for a middle-income budget.

Additionally, we practice Taijutsu and would be interested in joining a new club in the area, if there are any available.

Any suggestions you may have would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance for your help.

  1. Hi there!

    Welcome to the area! It’s exciting that you’re moving to Harwell Didcot. Here are some suggestions to help you find a great place to live and settle in:

    Where to Live:

    1. Didcot: Since you’ll be commuting to Harwell, Didcot is a natural choice. It has good transport links and plenty of amenities. You’ll find a mix of housing options and a vibrant community.

    2. Abingdon: Just a short drive or bus ride from Harwell, Abingdon is a charming town with plenty of shops, restaurants, and parks. It has a friendly atmosphere and offers good social opportunities.

    3. Oxford: If you’re open to a slightly longer commute, Oxford has a lively cultural scene, lots of clubs, and activities. Housing can be a bit pricier, but there are affordable options in the outskirts.

    4. Wallingford: A picturesque town with a riverside location, it’s a bit further than Didcot but offers a lovely community feel and good local amenities.

    Activities & Social Clubs:

    • Local Community Centers: Check out community centers in Didcot or Abingdon for clubs and activities that interest you. They often have listings for sports and hobbies.

    • Sports Clubs: Look into local Taijutsu clubs by visiting relevant websites or social media pages. You might find options in both Didcot and Oxford.

    Gyms:

    • Didcot Leisure Centre: This facility has a gym, swimming pool, and various classes.
    • David Lloyd in Abingdon: A bit more upscale with a great gym, pool, and fitness classes.
    • Local Fitness Studios: You’ll also find smaller studios offering a variety of fitness classes in the area.

    Transport:

    The area is quite well connected by public transport, especially if you’ll be commuting. Didcot Parkway train station has regular services to London and other major destinations.

    I hope this helps! Good luck with your move, and I’m sure you’ll find a great community here. If you have more specific questions, feel free to ask!
