Focus on: Alderley Edge
Alderley Edge is a pretty village in the east of Cheshire, famed for being home to many rich and famous residents. This and the many fashionable and upmarket shops, bars and restaurants has led to it being referred to as the Champagne capital of Britain.
However, the village also boasts a good selection of independent bakers, butchers, and a cheese shop as well as a monthly farmers’ market for those who prefer more traditional shopping.
Commuting from Alderley Edge is easy, with regular trains to Manchester - just 30 minutes away – and London. Manchester Airport is 20 minutes’ drive from the village. Motorway connections are also close by, giving easy access to the M60, M6 and M56.
Parents are spoilt for choice with plenty of good schools in the area, including Alderley Edge Community Primary School, Nether Alderley Primary, Wilmslow High School, and the private schools Ryleys Preparatory School and Alderley Edge School for Girls.
The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside, including ‘The Edge’, from which Alderley Edge takes its name, a dramatic, rocky area managed by the National Trust with beautiful views over Cheshire, the Peak District and Manchester.
