Lovely Life in Gorgeous Garstang

We love where we work! A population of almost 7000 people can’t be wrong!  what is it that attracts people to Garstang!

At the foot of the Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, located just off the A6 and nestled between junction 32 and 33 of the M6, this delightful market town offers an ideal position for those who love to admire and explore this beautiful part of Lancashire.

The town itself includes a range of independent shops on the High Street including excellent butchers, vegetable stalls, fabric shops, gift shops, jewellers, delicatessens, clothes and shoe shops.  There are also three supermarkets.

Centrally there is the Royal Oak public house which is renowned locally for producing an excellent beef sandwich!  There are a number of other pubs and eating establishments.

Garstang is also blessed with a cricket club, rugby club and swimming pool.  A number of professional services are also available including solicitors, accountants, healthcare providers, architects and of course Estate Agents and Chartered Surveyors.

There are a range of primary schools and Garstang Academy High, making Garstang a great location for families.  Situated close to the Bowland Hills, by the Lancaster Canal and on the River Wyre and River Calder, there are lots of super walks for those who love the great outdoors.  A walk round Greenhalgh Castle is often a popular choice.  It is true to say that Garstang has a wonderful and friendly heart.

The villages just outside the town are sought after including: Churchtown, Scorton, Bilsborrow, Forton, Catterall and Dolphinholme, each has its own unique character and focal point.

What are people looking for when they move to Garstang?  The spectrum is wide – and Garstang can cater for it!  We regularly get enquiries from many different types of buyers including first time buyers, those looking to move up the property ladder, those looking for a property with more character, looking for more space or those that are downsizing.

Luckily as a firm we are able to help people make that move, given the diverse range of property available.  From cottages and houses, barn conversions and homes with land, to small estates and farms.  Garstang and the surrounding area is able to cater for many tastes and specifications in terms of the housing stock available.  What’s more it is a highly sought after place and an attractive one at that.
