Life in 'most desirable' Nottinghamshire town where residents get 'best of both worlds'

A Nottinghamshire town dubbed one of the most 'desirable' locations in the county has been praised by residents who describe it as a great place to live. People who have made Kimberley their home say they get to enjoy the best of both worlds, with the city of Nottingham and the countryside on their doorstep.

Estate agent Watsons recently pinpointed the town as a hotspot for activity from younger buyers. Kimberley sits six miles northwest of Nottingham along the A610 and was once known as a centre for coal mining, brewing and hosiery manufacturing.
