Research reveals the UK’s most affordable coastal towns for retirement - is your area on the list?

New research has revealed the UK’s most affordable coastal towns for retirement, including desirable locations such as Barry, Blackpool and more. The research was conducted by The life insurance team at Compare the Market.

The research took two factors into consideration to make the list, including the average cost of a house and the cost of living for one person per month, excluding rent.

Anna McEntee, life insurance expert at Compare the Market, comments on the research:

“Retirement is an exciting time to start a new chapter, and escaping to the perfect seaside town can make all the difference.
