I've just moved from semi-rural (a mile or so outside Caerwys in Flintshire) to completely rural. Half a mile from the hamlet (maybe 30 houses, no shop, no pub, no bus-stop) of Bryn Rhyd-yr-Arian in Conwy. The village of Llansannan, where there are facilities, is a couple of miles further. 7 miles to Morrisons in Denbigh and 12 to Tesco in Abergele. It's now 40 miles each way to work rather than 30 but the peace, the view and the sunsets are worth it.
Given some of the horror stories that you hear, I suppose a week to get a BT line and a further week for Orange to switch the Broadband isn't too bad.
