Top 30 Best Cozy surroundings in Manchester

“Great stay at the Cornerstones guest house. Spotlessly clean room - nice decor and loads of space. Had all the comforts I needed including a hairdryer. Lovely big bathroom, excellent shower and loads of space to put all my bits and pieces out. Free parking included. Lovely welcome and top notch host. Excellent vale for money.”

“Firstly I think it’s important to note this is a cafe that is connected to a family support centre and counselling service. It’s cheap and it is supposed to be somewhere accessible for people who access the services next door, as well as for anybody who uses the park. I actually came here not because of this but because I had attended a baby class in the adjoining room, so my friend and I had coffee and cake here. It’s a great little place, so cheap and the staff are friendly too. There’s a seating area outside as well for warmer days. It’s a lovely little cafe if you’ve had a walk in the park or want to meet a friend with your little ones. They also offer a range of food and I’ve-cream in summer, but we always went primarily for coffee and cake, both of which were always spot on. We used to go here every week after baby classes, and will continue to do so after Covid. This cafe definitely deserves our support so that it stays open in the future.”

“Really enjoyed my stay here, the staff were outstanding and hospitable, the bar next to the lobby had a welcoming, cozy feel, wonderful menu and lovely rooms. I'm not sure about some of the complaints on the size, it seemed average to me, but it was very clean which is high on my importance list, as was the rest of the hotel. This hotel is away from the city bustle a bit, but a lot of trees around the property make it very relaxing and a pleasure to escape the traffic. My only feedback is the vegan sausage in the morning was freezer burned and a little bland, they can be tossed in oil & seasoning to add flavor, but fresh/defrosted is best. My veg pizza was wonderful, so was the veg burger. Great buffet in morning. Outstanding staff professionalism in housekeeping and lobby.”

“Jerk chicken salad box... Can only be described as sensational. Food and service fantastic. Would give more than 5 stars!!!”

“First time at this fabulous restaurant and it won't be the last! Lovely concept of a 4 course meal served to you with courtesy and a smile. We loved the fact there is no menu meaning that each course was a surprise. The food was all home cooked, delicious and extremely good value. The chef came and chatted to us at the end of our meal too. Think we have found our new go to restaurant.”

“After a recommendation from my daughter I booked The Cottage. What a wonderful find. Great place to stay so clean and comfortable. Lovely woodfire makes it so cosy. Accommodation is great. The bedroom is very comfortable and you can see the stars when in bed. There is also a single room with twin beds. The garden is lovely my two dogs loved it and I knew they were safe as it is well fenced. Lovely walks round the area. After my weeks stay I felt so relaxed and can't wait to go back. A great find.”

“Fabulous afternoon with Clare and her alpaca buddies. We all had so much fun and Clare made it a really interesting afternoon. Loved meeting her beautiful sheep too. Had a very jolly time would definitely recommend a visit”

“Can't recommend Fraser highly enough. Always get an excellent service. He's great with our dog who needed to be socialised properly after lockdown. Gave us some superb tips as to how to handle challenging behaviours, all of which worked a treat. Looking forward to a long working relationship!”

“Amazing place. Could do with more seating. VERY WELL PRICED and lovely atmosphere. The guy who served us awesome. The food the sausage the beans are out of this world. Bread needs a o he a little bigger lol. Love the decor. Such a warm nice touch. You NEED TO VISIT THIS PLACE ASAP !”

“Nice place for a break in the journey, nestled away on the Pennines The cakes were lovely, but the lemon meringue was a bit too much for me. The meringue was the uncooked & blow torched variety, rather than the classic baked. The lemon was also pretty heavy.”

“Lovely friendly cafe... fantastic home cooked food. Even better now I don't need to leave home as they're now on deliveroo”

“Lovely people, always make you feel welcome and the food/ coffee is amazing. Highly recommended the blondie brownie.”

“Delicious coffee!! Sitting here right now, sipping the last few drops of my latte. Better priced than elsewhere, nice atmosphere, and again… delicious coffee! I’m feeling pleased with myself for having finally discovered LD24 ☺️”

“Awesome little shop with great selection of beer and wine. Always receive a warm welcome and the coffee is gorgeous. Slowly building a stock of other items like gifts, most of which are very local which is fab. Love local supporting local. Also the pies and brownies are to die for. Beware, you will not shift the lockdown weight!!”

“We have just finished an amazing week’s honeymoon staying in Overlea Farm Cowshed. The cottage was incredible all round. I was particularly impressed with the decor and furnishing. Fantastic quality and great design. We loved the hot tub both on a morning looking out over the fields or on an evening looking at the stars. The fire was fantastic to keep toasty in the evening, though you get full control of the central heating anyway. The owners made us feel very welcome with a wonderful little welcome hamper. When we arrived there was gentle music playing on the Sonos system and a lovely scent from the diffusers. The location is fantastic for anyone with a car as it is super easy to access walks, restaurants and all the top sights in the Peaks within about 30 mins drive. We would absolutely recommend a stay here and would love to visit again.”

“We stayed in the shepherds hut was a comfortable couple of nights. Had a hairdryer, shower gel, shampoo , washing up liquid which surprised us . A pint of milk in fridge was a lovely welcome . Lots of books to read, we took a radio too . Very impressed with the hut and we will be back”

“Very friendly and accommodating staff. Extremely well decorated and comfortable rooms. Excellent peaceful location - would definitely recommend!”

“Our second visit to Ash Farm and didn't disappoint. Another warm welcome from Jan, David and Christian. Rooms are lovely and clean and well stocked with the normal tea, coffee etc Breakfast is excellent, so much choice and cooked to order. 5 minute walk to Dunham Massey and lovely homely pub next door with a real coal fire”

“This is a great place to stay, room is very nice the garden is perfect and the host can't do enough for you, will come and stay again definitely”

“We were selling an unoccupied house. We were given some good advice & tips. Claudette kept me informed of the offers & I had specific instructions on the type of buyer I wanted which she adhered to. Claudette was super efficient at chasing up my queries & getting back to me. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend R&D”

“Great hiking for all. We walked up past the reservoir. Unless there's been quite a bit of rain the downfall can be anything from nothing to a trickle but still some great views”

“Amazing products! So helpful too and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend! Products came very well wrapped too. Super happy”

“A truly unique place that I chanced upon. Great coffee, the friendliest of welcomes and a pleasure to sit upstairs and watch the world go by. Thoroughly recommended.”

“Beautiful food and atmosphere. Very friendly staff. Lovely evening.”

“Amazing food & host. Very welcoming and the food makes nandos seem cheap. Outstanding! Modest pricing with a great selection of drinks. Will be visiting again very soon. Thank you Kalo's”

“Absolutely fantastic staff. Ellie did my hair so professionally and exactly how I asked for it. She's really lovely person ,and has a good knowledge of her trade. Will definitely be using here from now on.”

“Nice guys and good barbers at a reasonable price. My teenage son also uses them and he’s quite fussy!”

“Fantastic selection of good quality wines, both to drink in and take away. Amazed at what the owners have done with the space. Very impressive addition to the town”

“Very lovely pub. Lovely waitress called Evie who did a fab job. She was cool. Hope to see her again soon. Great food, exquisite! Very clean and tidy, could lick the floors and it would taste clean!!”

“This is a beautifully decorated, rustic, enchanting hotel. The 400 year old building is very comfy and warm. An extremely relaxing environment. A fairytale feeling to the aptly named Wizards retreat. Welcomed by the owner Ian and introduced to the area, given plenty of ideas for eating and day out opportunities. The suite (Merlin Suite) was extremely comfortable, warm and a delightful place to stay. Cake, biscuits, teas and coffees and toiletries all included and of a high quality. Just an absolutely delightful stay which we plan to repeat to experience one of the other suites there.”
