Wow, a job offer before you've even decided to move there, you lucky thing! Stavanger is a beautiful place, it really depends where in Stavanger you're planning to live as to how your lifestyle might be since there is beautiful mountain areas but also a fairly active town life. As a Brit thats already done the move I couldn't recommend moving here more
