Situation
Liberty Gardens is a central harbourside location situated in the sought-after Point development; on a no-through road with direct views over Bristol’s iconic floating harbour. Over the last 10 to 15 years or so, the harbourside has been sensitively developed, with the creation of nearby Wapping Wharf and its award-winning choice of small independent shops, bars and restaurants in Cargo and Cargo2.
The harbour itself provides excellent leisure opportunities; with sailing, stand up paddle boarding, canoeing and rowing all available nearby; and Ashton Court Estate a little over 1.5 miles away, perfect for cycling and long walks. Bristol Airport is under 8 miles away and Bristol Temple Meads Station 1.5 miles away, providing convenient access to London by train and by car (M32: 3 miles), and mainland Europe by air.
