Almondsbury
Almondsbury is a beautiful, countryside village with the benefit of excellent transport links. The village is split by a steep hill, part of the escarpment overlooking the Severn floodplain. At the bottom of the hill is Lower Almondsbury where a pub and hotel, The Bowl Inn, is situated. South Wales, the Forest of Dean, the River Severn and both Severn Bridges are visible from the higher parts of the village. Just a few minutes from the M32, M4, M5 and just 6 miles from the city centre, you couldn’t be better placed to enjoy all that Bristol has to offer, without living in the city itself.
LOCAL INFORMATION
Amenities
There are plenty of local shops around the area for your day to day needs, along with Morrisons and Marks & Spencer supermarkets close by for your weekly shop.
For doctors, register with Almondsbury Surgery (Sat Nav BS32 4DS) and for dentists try Phoenix Dental in Lower Court Road (Sat Nav BS32 4DX).
Dining
You’ll discover a good selection of local restaurants around this area, so you don’t have to head into town to find your feast. The Harvester and TGI Fridays are a firm favourite with families, and you can also find top quality dining at the Bowl Inn, Miller and Carter Steakhouse, Saffron and Beijing. Nearby Thornbury has an equally tempting selection, including Mezze Lounge Bar, Ronnie’s, La Piazza and Thai Basil – and should you tire of all this choice, you’ll still have the countless eateries of Bristol to try and taste.
Education
You can choose from a selection of OFSTED ‘good’ rated primary schools in the local area, including Almondsbury Primary, Stoke Lodge Primary, Wheatfield Primary and Little Stoke Primary.
Older children can also choose from several ‘good’ rated schools, including Castle School, Abbeywood Community School and Bradley Stoke Community School. Bristol also has excellent provision for independent education, with Bristol Grammar and Colston’s School taking children aged 3-18 and QEH and Badminton School in the city catering for older boys and girls respectively.
Leisure
The surrounding area has a thriving local community with a wide range of clubs, societies and events to get involved in. There are many local fitness centres too, including Bradley Stoke Leisure Centre and Virgin Active. Golfers are also well catered for locally with Almondsbury, Filton and Hambrook golf courses within easy reach. There are also multi-screen cinemas, chain eateries and ten pin bowling within easy reach at Cribbs Causeway.
Further afield, Bristol has much to offer in the way of leisure and pleasure. It has a selection of theatres and music venues, such as the Bristol Hippodrome, two football clubs and top class rugby union all within easy reach, along with a range of fascinating and fun tourist attractions around the quayside.
Shopping
Bristol is made for retail therapy, with a mix of modern town centre shopping malls, out of town shopping centres and a fascinating selection of unusual independent shops around the historic market town of Thornbury.
The Mall at Cribbs Causeway has over 130 stores to choose from along with your favourite chain restaurants and leisure facilities. Alternatively, head for the city for the 120 stores of Cabot Circus and an extensive pedestrianised shopping area, or stay closer to home with Abbey Wood Retail Park, just across the A38 in Filton.
