Where is Manchester Waters situated?

Rising on Pomona Island, Manchester Waters is nestled between the Bridgewater Canal and the Manchester Ship Canal. Placed within Greater Manchester, the new residential complex is perched on the edge of the Borough of Trafford. Sheltered from the buzzing streets of the city by the waterways, Manchester Waters still benefits from close proximity to the vibrant city centre. In addition, the new complex is located within walking distance of MediaCityUK, one of the country's leading digital and media hubs. Another iconic destination a short walk away from Manchester Waters is Old Trafford, the home stadium of Manchester United FC that hosts some of the biggest matches and events in the United Kingdom.

Those who seek a peaceful sanctuary from the bustling city can take a promenade along one of the streams or reach the green canvas of Ordsall Park. The charming park offers an abundance of lush greenery, accompanied by excellent facilities such as a playground, football pitches, and gym equipment in case you need to let off some steam. Another place to take a tranquil stroll around is Seymour Park, which accommodates beautiful gardens and a skatepark.

Manchester Waters is well-connected to the rest of the megapolis. Mere minutes away from the complex, residents can hop on a tram from the Pomona Metrolink Station, linked to Blue and Red Lines that provide easy access to the Trafford Centre, MediaCityUK, and Piccadilly Gardens, among many other destinations.
