More than a third of the city lies inside the beautiful Peak District National Park, and it is virtually surrounded by open countryside – over half the city’s population live within 15 minutes of open countryside. It is also the greenest city in England, with 175 woodlands and 75 public parks. Sheffield offers a unique proposition of city culture alongside access to some of the most stunning countryside in the UK. This environment, together with the unparalleled strength of the city’s climbing, running, walking and biking communities, sets Sheffield apart from anywhere else in the UK. There is also a wide range of affordable housing and excellent schools on offer.
