Knutsford’s two streets, Princess Street and King Street, form the hub of the town, with a good range of independent shops, bars, restaurants and tearooms, as well as several supermarkets. At the top of Drury Lane is the entrance to Tatton Park, home to 50 acres of landscaped gardens and deer parkland as well as summer festivals and the biennial RHS Flower Show.
For those seeking the active lifestyle, the majority of sporting activities take place on Mereheath Lane, a two-minute walk from the property. Here you will find Knutsford Sports Club (tennis, squash, cricket and archery) a bowling club, Knutsford Golf Club, and Egerton Youth and Football Club.
