Alderley Park is a business park development by Bruntwood and home to a world class science facility, which is part of Manchester Science Partnerships. It is dedicated to discovery and new ideas and it’s a base for progressive businesses, which pride themselves in new thinking.

It is a modern and dynamic space, which includes new homes, shops, a gastropub and sports facilities at the heart of its community. All this is set in 400 acres of historic parkland, with lakes and a water garden. It boasts historic buildings sitting side-by- side with the new, in a magnificent landscape.

Discover Lotherton, a country estate, historic hall and Wildlife World zoo. Our Edwardian estate is truly a great place for a family day out, with plenty to keep children and grown ups entertained! The expansive grounds and gardens are lovely walking spots, with or without four-legged companions. Each season brings new surprises including wild garlic in the spring, a sea of colourful blooms in summer in the formal gardens and stunning autumnal colours later on in the year. We have two playgrounds which means there's plenty of space for running about and letting off steam, with zip wires for older children to enjoy. Our evolving zoo, Wildlife World, is a real highlight of any visit and we'd highly recommend popping by to see the Humboldt penguins splash and swim in their pool. Other colourful characters include Arthur the tapir, our resident porcupines and a flamboyance of pink flamingos. Stop in at the shop on your way to pick up your very own version of one of our Lotherton
