Manchester waterside Haven
Absolutely lovely place. Right on the water, the views are amazing. Half a mile from Old Trafford, so it worked out unbelievably well for us. The place is immaculate. All amenities were well written and worked exactly how they were described. Highly secure place too. 100% recommend this place. Kudos to David as a host as well.

CityNest w/balcony.
Marshall was very responsive when we messaged him. the listing did say there was a parking space but it is now just parking on the road. Marshall was very quick in responding when we weren't sure where to park, there is a street just down the road with space for overnight parking. We had some difficulty entering the building (issues with keypad) but again Marshall was very quick to assist us to gain entry. Once in the apartment it had everything we needed to make a meal, the lounge was spacious and the sofa is comfy. The apartment was very clean and there were books if you wanted to read something. Very happy with our stay overall.

Luxury Country Cottage (5/6p) Private Lake, HotTub
Gorgeous place. The design is chic and felt luxe yet homely. friendly farm cats and goats that the children loved playing with. Hot tub was excellent and warm, loved the fire pit and the log burner. Junction in pub which is a 5 minute walk was amazing - great home cooked food - and the best pies ever!! Sarah was charming and had great recommendations for anything you could possibly need. seriously considering returning in the summer also!

The Studio: Stylish Space, Hayfield Village.
What a great place to stay. Lovely little village with everything you need on your doorstep, a nature trail into a town (New Mills) which you can walk or use your bicycle to get there, even horse riders can use the nature trail. Lantern Pike is on the way through if you fancied a lovely 1-2hr hike with an amazing view from the top over the village and surrounding areas. Such a peaceful place and was the well needed breath of fresh air.

East MCR House by the Canal
We really loved Georgieās place. It was such a lovely base for our short time over, made us feel right at home and the canal in the garden is awesome! I would recommend to anyone wanting to visit Manchester. And I will certainly be back again when I decide to come back for longer!

Waterfront House, Salford Quays
A very nice apartment at a fantastic location. Close to shops and tram-station. Maybe a bit for the center of town, but for us it was perfect. And Jo was a very proactive and responding host.

Manchester near city centre, Etihad Stadium view
Really loved my stay here. great view of the Eithad stadium and everything you would need inside. All very comfortable. I am a wheelchair user, I know this isn't advertised as accessible but I was still able to use the whole apartment including the balcony in my wheelchair. I only needed my partners help in the bathrooms and in for in and out the doors/gate. It's also an easy fully accessible 5/10 min walk to the stadium. The owner was really helpful, answered any questions I had quickly. Id definitely come back.
