Golf enthusiasts are spoiled for choice with courses such as Withington Golf Club, Prestbury Golf Club, Sandbach Golf Club, and Congleton Golf Club all within easy reach. For something a little more adventurous, head to Astbury Watersports Centre at Astbury Mere for paddleboarding, canoeing, and sailing.

The area is dotted with welcoming pubs and restaurants, including the well-loved Swettenham Arms, and nearby towns like Knutsford, Macclesfield, and Congleton offer boutique shopping, cosy cafés, and attractions such as the Macclesfield Silk Museum. Whether you’re seeking history, nature, or simply a countryside escape, Lower Withington is the perfect gateway to it all.
