There are so many reasons to visit… ALTRINCHAM & HALE

If proof was needed that Altrincham has risen phoenix-like from the ashes of recession, it is in the “phenomenal number” of new openings that have recently occurred in what is now one of the most desirable locations in the Northwest. Not only that, but there are also more business to come, making it a great example for other towns wishing to stop the downward spiral of boarded-up properties and empty streets.

Hale has a fantastic night-time offering which makes it a destination for leisure and pleasure. And just like, Altrincham, Hale includes a plethora of prestigious businesses and is attracting newcomers to the high street, that is famed for fashionable restaurants and bars.
