Best Shopping Malls, Outlet and Places in Lymm Area

"This is part of the successful Liverpool ONE complex, and the apartments are well-placed for shopping sprees: restaurants, department stores and entertainment venues are practically on your doorstep. That said, by night, all is quiet – bars and clubs are close by, but at a remove enough to allow for a decent kip. The apartments are fitted with full kitchens, dining area and lounge and bedrooms are cosy, if not overly spacious."

"Liverpool One is a great location to hunt around the high streets and designer shops and is ideal with children if you are looking for something a little more laid back.

Six weeks from now… Spring is in the air."

"Tiny nanobrewery Öl has its own brew kit on-site and makes some fabulous concoctions. But, as a result of the tiny set-up, their own beers usually sell out incredibly fast, so they stock a range of others too. Find them at Hatch on Oxford Road in one of the shipping containers."
