Natural beauty to enjoy all year round
Cottam is surrounded by beautiful countryside just waiting to be explored. With stunning waterfalls, woodlands, old mines, historic ruins, monuments and ancient sites, a castle, rivers and canals, you’ll never be short of places to explore. In fact the Lancaster Canal runs just to the south of Cottam and continues all the way through the Forest of Bowland and along the Wyre coastline before finishing at Kendal providing you with beautiful views.
Nearby Preston is a town full of history with a choice of offers a great choice of shops, restaurants, cinema, theatre, museums and beautiful outdoor spaces. Blackburn is a little further and Manchester is also handy for a day out at the shops, an afternoon at the football (or cricket) and a night out on the town.
Blackpool and the Silverdale coast are also within easy distance, providing stunning scenery, a wealth of wildlife, historic villages and inspiring walks. Head further North and you find yourself in the sublime beauty of the Lake District. Or go West for the imposing peaks of Snowdonia. The Pennines and Yorkshire Dales are also within easy reach.
At Cottam Gardens, you’re perfectly placed for the M55, the direct road to Blackpool. It also links you with the M6, heading North to the Lakes and Scotland or South to the Midlands. The M65 also gives you a quick route to Yorkshire and, wherever you’re heading in the country, Cottam Gardens is a great place to start.
There are also regular bus services to Preston and the local area. Manchester and Liverpool Airports are both handy when travelling further afield but maybe the best form of transport in this part of the world is to take a boat, canoe or bicycle and follow the local canal out into the countryside.

Affordability guide
Estimate Household Income
When looking for your new home, it’s important to understand what you can afford. To help get an idea of the estimated affordability for a home on this development, you can apply the 40% net income approach. In simple terms, this means that a household should not spend more than 40% of their household income to pay for their mortgage, rent and service charge.
As a rough estimate, the graphics above suggests the household income required to purchase; however, people with a lower income may be able to secure a property if they have a larger deposit. (i.e. if you have a larger deposit saved, where you have higher savings, your household income can be lower than the figure quoted above).
How it works
Shared Ownership is a government-backed scheme which allows first-time buyers – or those who do not currently own a property – the opportunity to purchase a home at a more affordable price.
The Shared Ownership scheme is simple – you buy an initial share of between 40% and 75% of the homes full value and pay a subsidised rent on the remainder.
You may purchase further shares (up to 100%) as your circumstances change, should you choose to.
