POLL: Favourite natural scenery?

8 år siden

There's nothing quite like being in the great outdoors and having nature close by is often a criteria for many when choosing a home - having grown up in the mountains it's a must for me! But when it comes down to the kind of scenery surrounding your home, does one particular natural body take your fancy?

How can you make us choose?! I grew up with meadows and hills, love the mystery of a forest, the smell and sound of the sea, the drama of mountains and the peacefulness of a lake. A house set in forest covered mountains with views of meadows and the sea or a lake is the only answer.

I love lakesides, the gentle serenity given off by lake water, and the lovely swimming in the lake in summer.

Is it all about space and how far you can see, rather than what's there? (Although I can appreciate that the Matterhorn or Lake Bled would help!)

@heidifreeman1962 - Having a lake nearby is perfect for those lazy summer days!

@gravel41 - guess it's the whole picture but having the Matterhorn or Lake Bled would be good enough for me! :)

The sea, with hills and greenery and a bit like a lake and hills ... basically anywhere on Sydney Harbour (a girl can dream!) , I grew up in Sydney and always miss the harbour, beaches, greenery that surrounds them ... all the lusciousness, the colours, and the smell of fresh ocean air and sound of the breeze in the trees and the birds singing ... something for all the senses ... and all within a wonderful city. Almost behind every corner there is some type of waterway, would love a house on the harbour some day, better start buying those lottery tickets. It used to take my breath away even when I lived there. (... from a homesick Aussie). I love swimming there so want to be able the access the view rather than just look at it.

To be honest, it would be all of them but having to pick one, I've always had a thing for mountains so that's got to be the choice

Has to be the Sea for me. The smell and sheer expanse of it screams of freedom and adventure, so beautiful always.

I love a lake view. The water is more calm and it's often framed with nice hills and valleys.

How indeed to choose?

I think I'd like a house overlooking a lake or small natural harbour with boats and then for there to be meadows by the lake and hills climbing high after that, which of course would be forested on their mid heights, farmed on the lower reaches and rocky at the peaks.

That's why I had to vote "other" - as there wasn't an "all of the above" option.

I think I'd probably go 'all of the above' too now that I think about it!
