Didsbury: Manchester’s Village in the City

South Manchester's most coveted postcode.

Ask most Mancunians where they would live if money were no object and many would say Didsbury. The suburb combines Victorian and Edwardian architecture with strong independent businesses and proximity to Fletcher Moss Park.

Didsbury village centres on Palatine Road and School Lane with excellent restaurants including Volta and Hispi and a Farmers Market on the second Sunday of each month.
