Poynton

Macclesfield, Cheshire, SK12 1BY

Poynton nestles in the foothills of the Peak District National Park and is a perfect base for exploring the Cheshire countryside.

This former mining village has been transformed into a thriving town, complete with a range of high quality shops, bars and restaurants.

Fire your pistons at the Anson Engine Museum, a quirky establishment that houses one of Europe’s largest collection of internal combustion engines in Europe – varying in size from desktop to 100 tons.

Cyclists and walkers can discover the Middlewood Way, a 16km traffic free route that runs through picturesque countryside, whilst canal enthusiasts will delight in exploring the Macclesfield Canal which runs through the heart of Poynton.
