'We love the juxtaposition of country and city life and the healthy work life balance that living in Long Ashton has afforded us. A easy city commute by car, bike or bus and accessibility to both motorways and the Bristol airport have made short breaks in the UK or Europe effortless. The village is rich with history and has a strong sense of community that supports its many local independent businesses. Our home, built on the old agricultural and horticultural research centre is where Ribena was invented in 1933. Remnants of the areas involvement in the development of the West Country Cider industry can be seen in local streets that are adorned with apple and fruit trees. Among other local events, the annual wassailing and apple harvest festivals are always fun.
The hub of our home has by far been the large open plan kitchen/diner with central island and French doors leading out to the patio and back yard. One of our favourite memories is the kids dancing, and scooting on their ride ons around the kitchen island on rainy winter days. The backyard extends beyond our fence line to include some truly wonderful natural spaces and we consider ourselves very fortunate to have had the opportunity to raise our family here for the past 10 years. We are off on a new adventure, but know you and your family will have as much joy and happiness in this home and village as we have.'
Blackcurrant Drive is situated centrally in one of most popular housing developments in Long Ashton. The shops and amenities on Lovelinch Gardens and along Weston Road are just a short walk away. The heart of this village is also home to the popular Birdwell Primary School, rated good from Ofsted and less than 10 minutes walk. The village is well-regarded by its residents for having its own community and green spaces around, yet just being a mile or so from Bristol and just a ten minute drive from the City Centre and Harbourside area, with regular buses and pleasant cycle routes through Ashton Court into the City. Within the village itself there are several pubs with a good reputation for their food and atmosphere, whilst independent shops such as the Gatcombe Farm Shop and The Little Tipple sell locally produced food and drink. Long Ashton’s huge popularity comes from its proximity to Bristol yet the proud independence it has as a North Somerset village, with a unique rural feel just outside some of the most exciting parts of the city of Bristol.
