Thanks very much for the replies, I will check out the areas and towns you have mentioned.
Looking forward to heading out that way!
We will definitely send our kids to local schools, what better way to become part of the local community, we will also be interested in buying property, after a year of renting and looking around for the right area.
If I can be close to the mountains and be close to mountainbike routes, I'll be in heaven.
Any info on the local bureaucracy, I believe it can be rather challenging.
Thanks again
