Mad For It

Mad For It: Greater Manchester

This hip, one-bed apartment is in a converted 19th-century cotton mill. Gorgeously renovated, it has tonnes of character and all mod cons – it's perfectly designed for a single person or couple to get the most out of a trip to the city. Its shared amenities, including a fabulous downstairs bar, make it feel like a hotel but its facilities give guests more independence – all the studios and apartments here come with king-size beds, free hyperoptic wi-fi, smart TVs and kitchenettes. The hosts get bonus points for their welcome packs, filled with Kinsey Apothecary bathroom products and tasty treats. Plus it’s just a two-minute walk from the lively bars of Canal Street and five from the city’s famous Northern Quarter, home to a selection of independent shops, bars, and restaurants.

Home truths:
*There's no parking on-site, but charged public parking is available nearby
*This home is part of a hotel – the lobby and communal areas are shared with other guests of the building
*The host has several very similar homes in the same building – the exact layout, views, and design of your home might vary slightly from the photos
