PRESTBURY
I’ve lived here for 23 years, and I’ve seen you rise, fall and most certainly rise again.
CHRISTINE COLBERT Owner of the Dress
I really fell in love with you. I originally had my eye on Wilmslow, and just kind of stumbled across you: I came across a house for sale, and I don’t think I even needed to go inside to know this is where I needed to live. I felt it straight from the outset: this feels like home. And you’ve been home ever since.
I have a little joke with myself, because there can be weeks gone by (outside of lockdown) where I don’t leave you. I’m probably known for two things here: for Dress (the Dress Agency of Cheshire), and for being ‘that poodle lady’.
I’ll be very much seen in my dog walking gear; no make-up on, my hair scraped back and with three crazy, miniature poodles, Olly, Eddie and Coco. It’s lovely to always recognise the same faces here.
I love it; you offer contemporary dining and evenings out, yet you are rustic and I really take in some calm when I’m in the village.
There’s something about the graveyard here at St Peter’s Church – I don’t know what it is, it’s just not a scary graveyard. It doesn’t matter when I walk through it; it’s so peaceful. And I love the fact that if you take time to look at the headstones, they have been hand-carved with the most beautiful typography. It’s the 800th birthday of St Peter’s this year, which is really special.
