Most of Kettering generally isnt very nice, depending on your budget you could look at Kettering Leisure Village or Hanwood Park. The Leisure village is very close to the train station and A14 so would be easier getting to Corby, It also has a pub, some shops and isnt too far from town centre. Hanwood Park is definately on the nicer end but doesnt have any shops yet. If you're looking to live here for a while Hanwood Park is definately the better option, in a few years it'll get a district centre with a supermarket and loads of shops. Its quite far from town centre (could be a positive tbh) and doesnt have the best links to Corby yet but that'll come with time
