Curl up Under the Skylight at a Former Victorian Hayloft
Nestled in West Didsbury this former Victorian stable hayloft offers our guests luxury, privacy and comfort in a quiet location, tucked away yet near to everything you could need. Oaker Chase has it’s own external entrance on the first floor with private south-west facing terrace. The apartment itself is large and airy being 650 square foot (60 square metres) with it’s own workstation designed with the business traveler in mind. The kitchen is fitted with a fridge-freezer, oven, hob, washing machine, coffee maker and butchers block island. The 3 piece bathroom is equipped with a large shower with body jets. To add to your comfort we have installed a smart TV with Netfix and Freeview. There are no shared amenities, everything in the loft is for the exclusive usage of our guests. The bedroom includes a double bed with closet and a chest of drawers. Road parking outside is plentiful as it's a very quiet road. Although our guests privacy is of the upmost importance to us we are generally available to assist if required. Burton Road is the heart of West Didsbury, a beautifully maintained leafy hub of shops, bars, and restaurants where independence is paramount. Drink a beer brewed down the road or in New York, buy a cake baked this morning, and find vintage threads. Oaker Chase is 10-12 minutes walk from the Withington Manchester Metro tram stop and 5 mins from major bus routes into the City Centre. Manchester Airport is a 15min drive away as is the City Centre. This luxury apartment is designed for a maximum of 2 people only so strictly no groups, parties or events. We are flexible with check-in, all we ask is that if it is outside of the 3pm- 7pm timescale you kindly let us know. Sorry but the apartment is not suitable for pets. Please bear in mind that this is 120 year old former hayloft full of character however some doorways may be lower than normal. Please also bear in mind that it is on the first floor up a staircase so may not be suitable for infants and anyone with access issues. This is a quiet residential nook in West Didsbury so we ask our guests to be respectful of the surrounding neighbours. Smoking is allowed on the outside terrace only, cigarette disposal will be provided but an extra cleaning fee of £85 will be charged if anyone smokes inside. We live adjacent to the loft although you will have complete privacy this enables us to be flexible and to easily assist with restaurant bookings, and local information should you require anything.
