What a wonderful cottage. Very clean, very comfortable with just about anything you could need. The information pack was excellent and detailed. The welcome pack of tea coffee milk and a bottle of wine and packet of cookies was a nice surprise. If I travelled to the UK again I would definitely consider staying here again and would recommend it to anybody.

Can't remember exactly how many times we've stayed at Park View Cottage over the last 10-ish years so that probably says it all. Cottage is clean and comfortable, well located opposite Manor Park. The garden is ideal for watching the planes going into Manchester airport.Jane is a good host and we appreciated the wine and biscuits. And the tea-bags coffee sugar and doggy extras too.
