Moving West!

I'm a mum of an 14 month y/o and plan on having another soonish. We are hoping to move West (Pembs or Ceredigion). We want to be by the sea. Ish. Wondering were people would recommend that has some good toddler groups, family friendly and stuff going on for kids. We are outdoorsy and spend most of our time at beach or the mountains.We both work in schools/NHS, jobs aren't a big issue. We're Welsh (for context) and have loved rurally in Snowdonia so are well aware of Welsh life! Looking for recommendations for a good balance of family/outdoors. We won't know anyone. Thanks :) (Anon cos friends don't know yet and can't deal with the questions!!)

I moved to milford haven/hakin, Pembrokeshire 5 years ago and it's great! Close enough to the beach we can walk there yet also close enough to the marina/town to have the full experience of baby groups etc. Hospital about 20 minutes away for nhs work or obviously community jobs here there and everywhere across the county (I work in the pembroke dock DN team myself) and schools are obviously everywhere too! Our local primary is a 5 minute walk which is lovely! X

I’m in Aberystwyth and it’s great here. 5 mins out and you’re in unspoiled countryside and not too far from the beginning of Eryri. I can be in the sea within 3 mins if leaving my place.

Thanks both. My OH is actually from Aber so he'd love that. Just want to make sure I don't end up feeling too isolated and there's some groups we can join to make friends.
