Transport links are excellent. The Centre – the area where the Floating Harbour extends into the city centre – is a hub for buses and taxis. There’s also a water ferry available. Temple Meads station is a little over a mile away.

If you’re driving out of the city centre, the M32 is moments away leading directly to the M4. Also access the M5 via The Portway (A4).

Local homes

The majority of available homes are apartments. There’s an abundance of purpose-built blocks of flats and restored period buildings.

Many commercial buildings have been innovatively converted – some of the most attractive are in the redeveloped Floating Harbour area, and include waterfront apartments in former warehouses and contemporary builds, ranging in size and price.

The Old CityMarkets, bars and restaurants in abundance.

Local places

You have everything you need on your doorstep. The shopping centres of Broadmead and Cabot Circus offer a huge amount of choice for shopping, eating and entertainment, as well as supermarkets for the essentials. St Nicholas Markets and the Old City are both great for independent shops, bars and restaurants. 

While there may be too many places to mention in the City Centre here are a few of our top recommendations: The Raven, Urban Tandoor, The Strawberry Thief and The Granary.
