Great clean apartment. Responsive host Only negative is that the building common spaces (hallway and lift) were quite dirty - aware that this is out of the host's control though

5 out of 5 average rating, 68 reviewsLuxury Country Cottage (5/6p) Private Lake, HotTub
This beautifully converted barn has been so thoughtfully restored and furnished. The setting is beautiful and the hot-tub on the pond is truly magical and unique and feels like a mini adventure each time you venture down. Our children loved the hot tub, feeding the goats and also playing in the back garden which has a goal and some play things, where they can easily be watched from the kitchen/living room. Sarah was such a lovely, friendly and welcoming host who greeted us when we arrived and checked in on us before we left, and provided loads of additional information to make our stay special. It took us just 20 mins to drive to central Manchester for a day of football and shopping. Near by the cottage there are fantastic pubs and walks.

A great stay. The house was in beautiful surroundings with a lovely walk. The house was great for a group- large spacious bedrooms and a great living space. Everyone around was so friendly. The host Darren was really accomodating. Check in was easy and he answered questions quickly and even bought us some bin bags. Would really recommend.

If I could give 10 stars I would! Georgie was the best host! The property was gorgeous, super clean and everything we could have wanted for a home from home! Georgie left us lots of little goodies and lots of lovely items for us to use during our stay! I loved the cake and prosecco and the Croissants went down an absolute treat! Super responsive host with lots of clear communication leading up to and during our stay. Easy check in and out, clear instructions provided and lots of great recommendations for our time in Manchester! We didn’t bring our furry friends but if you did, this would be the perfect place for them! Lots of doggy items for use also :) Great location to visit Coop live and the city of Manchester and Georgie went above and beyond to make sure we knew where we were going when returning back to the property via Tram! We will definitely be back again :) Thanks for making our stay super special!!! Xxx

4.75 out of 5 average rating, 8 reviewsStylish Central House Retreat in Manchester
Gorgeous semi-detached 3 bedroom new build in Salford. 12-15 min drive to the heart of the city, close to supermarkets and local bus routes with walking fields just across the road. Overall a lovely quiet area. The house was extremely well kept with modern decor and had all the amenities needed for our stay. 3 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms (main bedroom has an en suite) all great sizes. Will definitely be staying here again when travelling to Manchester. Excellent garden with decking at the rear, perfect for summer getaways. Diana was very helpful with answering any questions I had but wasn’t needed as it was all made so simple!

Olly was a brilliant host! Really helpful and responsive and went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and enjoyed our stay. The apartment was beautiful - pristine and so spacious. I booked for 5 guests and there was definitely enough space with two large bathrooms and plenty of space to relax. The location was also perfect for us - just 10 minutes in an uber to the city centre and very close by to the tram station. The area was peaceful and quite beautiful with views of the river. I'm not in Manchester much, but would certainly stay again if I ever needed to. I would highly recommend Olly and this Airbnb! Thank you Olly!

We had a really pleasant stay at this location. Our host, Osama was lovely and had quick responses if we had any queries. There were plenty of amenities and the apartment was very clean and tidy, felt very welcoming when we first arrived. I would definitely recommend staying here as it’s very close to the city centre and the local saisbury’s downstairs was very convenient too.
