High Lane Village is historically a Cheshire village that now resides on the outskirts of Stockport. The village is popular amongst walkers, hikers and cyclists as it has access to the Macclesfield Canal, Middlewood Way and Lyme Park. High Lane has a wide range of eateries and village pubs that welcome the local community as well as visitors.

Due to its height, High Lane boasts excellent views of Manchester which is approximately 15 miles away. High Lane is the perfect distance away from the boom of the city and the dramatic natural landscape of the Peak District. You can read more HERE
