Ellon

My wife and I are exploring an employment opportunity in Ellon. We would be looking to live in Ellon or in another nearby town. We like the idea of living in the country, as we both did growing up. Some questions: are there public transit options that far out? How available are rentals? Are these areas more affordable than Aberdeen? Any guidance you could offer would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Ellon is about half hour from Aberdeen. There are plenty of buses from Ellon to Aberdeen.


Lots of countryish towns nearby Ellon.. Just do a Google search for properties.. The closer you get to Aberdeen the more expensive it is..

Above links should get you started. I spent my first 3 years here in Scotland in Aberdeen.

Welcome to the boards..

Is there public transit that runs from the outskirts of Ellon into Ellon?

Here is a link for Aberdeenshire Council public transport. Have a look about it.. I'm sure there would be transport in the local Ellon area..
