Family-friendly holiday rentals in Greater Manchester

Absolutely gorgeous barn with beautiful views in a great location. We loved the chickens, goats, dog and cat. Susan was really friendly, the barn was immaculate and had everything we needed. Directions were spot-on. We had a lovely time, thank you 😊

This was the best experience. Magical. The farm and yurt are beautiful. We also immensely enjoyed hanging with the goats and the hot tub. It's a wonderfully unique experience and we couldn't have been happier with our stay.

My son and I stayed at Dot’s Shepherd’s Hut over half-term, and saying we loved it would be an understatement. It’s the perfect base for exploring the hills - just step outside and you’re surrounded by breathtaking scenery. We especially enjoyed the outdoor fire in the evenings, toasting s’mores under the stars. Seeing the smile on his face made it worth every penny. If you’re looking to spend real quality time with your children and get them away from screens and PlayStations, this is the place. We’ll definitely be back.

We stayed to the hut so we could unwind and relax . It was the perfect choice . It was so peaceful hearing the rain and birds from outside.We did fired the fireplace,the hut was so warm.Loved the staying.The views were amazing.Chickens and goats were so cute and was lovey to watch them.Had everything we needed!

Jane’s bungalow is a great place to stay in Marple. Jane is a very responsive host and gave very clear access details. It is very well equipped with everything you could need. Also it is In a lovely quiet location within easy walking distance to the town’s facilities and railway station We had a lovely weekend in Marple and we would thoroughly recommend a stay there.

Mike's place is comfortable, clean, and adequate for 4 people, although provides for six. It's superbly kitted out, down to the last tea bag! That's an understatement! If this is an overnight and you have forgotten your "you know what's", and you are boarding for Barbados tomorrow morning, Mike will sort you out and get you to the airport. I'm sure of it! The Garden Apartment is a basement flat with very little natural light. Don't let that deter you! The facilities are first class. There are mirrors and creative lighting which make it feel light. Plus the garden, which is your private space to enjoy with BBQ. The garden is a delight with Roses and Wisteria, and many plants I could no identify. It's good!

We stayed at the cottage for 2 nights for a 40th birthday get away with family and 3 small dogs. From start to finish, Nina was an outstanding host. We arrived at the cottage without issue, helped by the clear instructions provided! The cottage sits in the most gorgeous surroundings with spectacular views and dog-proof garden! The cottage itself is simply beautiful with so much thought has gone into every element. Absolutely everything you could possibly need during your stay is there, ready to go and well placed to find. Nina is as so kind and helpful, responding to questions so quickly and with seemingly endless patience. The local walks in both the country and villages are fantastic- with some excellent pub/ restaurant options around, including many which are dog friendly! Our only complaint was that we couldn’t stay longer! We found ourselves checking our diaries towards the end of the stay to organise our next visit! Thank you again, Nina!

I can sum up my stay with Jennie in one sentence: Professionalism and empathy at every level! The apartment and location were great, but the service made all the difference. From the very beginning of planning my trip, I got in touch with Jennie, and she always responded promptly, providing detailed information and showing genuine care for every aspect. Even when an unexpected issue arose, she was incredibly proactive, immediately offering a solution, following up on everything remotely, and later making sure everything had been fully resolved. For anyone planning to visit Manchester and looking for a pleasant place to stay with a polite, professional, and caring host, I highly recommend her!

Richard has a great cottage. Really well equipped, clean and cosy and very, very comfortable. It has a small terraced garden too for breakfast in the sunshine or a bbq. It's up a hill on a very quite road with wonderful views and good walking country if that's your thing. Situated in Delph, one of Saddleworth's lovely village centres, with good restaurants, pubs and has small supermarket and wine bar. And although under renovation it has a great little theatre. Other villages are in an easy drive away. So if you're coming to Saddleworth Richard's cottage would be the wonderful place to stay. It suited us perfectly and I feel sure it wouldn't disappoint.

We stayed here for a wedding in New Mills and had a lovely stay. Andrew was responsive and informative. He gave clear instructions for check in and checking out. The house itself is clean and spacious with ample parking and a nice garden.

Such a convenient location. A very nice flat with everything we needed to hand. Thank you Toby.

Excellent stay, cosy little place that we wish we had the time to have enjoyed more. Would absolutely stay again if we were in the area. Donna was really responsive and helpful and made everything clear amd easy to follow :).

Got this airbnb for the last minute. Reasonable price, the place is very nice, clean, and easy to find. The host is very communicative and will come back again for sure!

This studio was in a great location for exploring Manchester and the surrounding area!

Had a large get together and this venue was perfect. Transport to town and venues was very easy with public transport. Very good value listing for our large group.

I had a fantastic month staying at Julie's place. It was well equipped, clean and very comfortable. Warm and well heated. Very convenient to public transport, only a short walk into the centre of Stockport. Thank you for great stay!

Really enjoyable weekend. Simon’s house was ideal for us, in an easily accessible and easy to find location, within 15 mins walking distance from great bars and restaurants of Didsbury, as well as pleasant walks along the river. Would certainly stay again and recommend for others. Thanks!

Great place, fantastic location for Manchester. Host was very responsive and the apartment was clean and tidy. Very helpful host!

We had a great stay! The place was really comfortable, perfectly located within easy reach of everything we needed, and the whole experience was smooth from start to finish. Would definitely stay again!
