Liverpool and Manchester airports are both about 20 minutes away by car.
The Town centre has recently undergone a multi million pound refurbishment, with a new addition to the shopping mall, bringing in even more high street retailers and restaurants. A new state of the art bus station has also recently been completed.
Surrounding areas offer a mix of Victorian villages, such as Stockton Heath and Lymm, with upmarket restaurants and shops, and newer, purpose built urban villages that cater for those who prefer contemporary style living.
