The town is part of the Golden Triangle together with Alderley Edge and Prestbury. There’s something for everyone in Wilmslow; independent and high street shops, cafes, bars restaurants and plenty of green open spaces. The river Bollin runs through the Carrs Park, providing opportunities for riverside and woodland walks and outdoor recreational activities.
