With pretty boutiques housed in a patchwork of historic buildings along its bustling High Street, Tarporley is a thriving village community in the heart of Cheshire. It has won countless "best kept village" awards over the years, has a Royal connection, and can now add the accolade of being named one of the Best Places to Live in the UK by The Sunday Times.

It's a hive of community activity, with every boutique an independent shop - save for the one Co-Op convenience store in the village.
