Merseyside's 'poshest' village that has one road in and out

Nestled behind a railway line and along the coast is a village dubbed the 'poshest' on Merseyside.

Back in January, The Daily Telegraph, in partnership with Savills plc, listed Hightown, in Sefton, as one the most desirable places to live in the country. The rural village is a quiet community with one road in and out - and according to one resident, that's just how they like it.

It has a population of around 2,000 and is tightly packed with a handful of shops, pubs and restaurants. And, as it sits on the coast, it has its own hidden enclave of sand, which is slightly set in between the Crosby and Formby beaches.
