City center stay.You'll find Prestwich Country Park and Heaton Park within 2 miles (3 km) of this guesthouse. University of Salford and AO Arena are also within 6 miles (10 km).
You'll have the entire place to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
You have the top of the house! Family Bedroom with large en-suite bathroom.
Although it looks small, the house has 4 floors and is over 130 years old. The space for guests is the whole of the top floor. You don't have access to the rest of the house, but will get a key to the front door and alarm fob. We expect guests to lock the front door when coming in or when exiting for security.
It's ideal for people wanting to self isolate. We have completed a risk assessment for Covid and have put procedures in place accordingly. If you don't want us to service the room, we can work round this easily.
It's a large room with two double beds and a huge bathroom with a large walk in shower. It's in a quiet street and all our guests say how quiet and relaxing it is here. You can book a maximum of 4 adults or 2 adults and 3 children. Not suitable for babies.
Please note that there are two flights of steep stairs, so if you have mobility problems, this may not be for you. If you are fit then it's easy.
It's a half mile (800 metres) from the Manchester Orbital Motorway, M60. It's also a half mile (800 metres) from two Metrolink tram stops and 200 yards (metres) from a bus stop with buses to Manchester or our local town of Bury, with its world famous market.
There is also a fridge/freezer, microwave oven and a one cup at a time hot water dispenser, with free coffee, tea, sugar and UHT milk.
There is a large wardrobe with hanging space, shelves, safe, iron and hairdryer. An ironing board also provided. There are 14 small sets of drawers for your belongings.
The TV has Freeview and Netflix.
Please note that the whole house is no smoking and there are smoke alarms all over. This accommodation is the whole top floor, so for smokers you may find it inconvenient. This is because the only place to smoke is in the front garden or street. This means coming down and going back up two flights of stairs and unlocking and locking the door every time! Also, everytime the front door opens there is a loud buzzer sounding. (Door alarm for advising us of entry/exit for security).
We stopped providing breakfast, as there are good cafes around here, if required. See our list on the noticeboard in the room of 25 takeaways, cafes & restaurants, all within walking distance.

John and Chris were amazing hosts! We stayed for a week and had a great time! They took out our trash/recycling daily and let us borrow an umbrella when it was raining. They also had a detailed pamphlet of things to do/eat in the area. 10/10 would stay here again :)

Was a 10 minute walk to the nearby train station and market or just around the corner are multiple restaurants and pubs. Taking the metro in was easy every day and the host provided a large list of very useful information
