Anyone live in or around Windsor/Eton/Datchet or Wokingham area?

The area I'm living in at the minute is nice and is close to where I work but I don't know anyone there so I'm thinking of moving to the Windsor area or even to Wokingham. I'm looking to move into a one bed flat/apartment or even into a houseshare (with professionals). I've noticed that prices in Windsor and the surrounding areas are quite high and from what I can see on the net there doesn't seem to be a great deal of choice. Wokingham appears to be a bit cheaper but again I can't find a lot of properties of the type I'm looking for.

Can anyone from any of these areas give me a link to a local property page or letting agent? My Google skills aren't that good.

I've visited these areas and thought they were very nice. Like almost everywhere else, are there specific places I should avoid? Anything else to watch out for?

Thanks

Oh heavens no! Windsor has gone down hill ever since they forced upon us the Slough postcode. Greener pastures are to be found elsewhere, my dear sir!

With a UB postcode at the minute, I think an RG (or whatever it is) will be a step up in the world for me

I'm on a UB postcode, UB10 to be precise. I think the higher the number the more upmarket the area is.

I'm in Ickenham.

I'm only an ickle 4, just beside Yeading.

Thanks for the posts everyone. I'm getting a load of info from Ciba on MSN which is really helping.
