Fifteen minutes from central Manchester, this apartment makes a practical base. It's contemporary in terms of design, but size-wise, it's on the compact side – we think it works best for smaller groups. Still, it has all the essentials to unwind – a well-appointed kitchen, a comfortable lounge, and free parking for one car. A sofa bed in the living room accommodates two, and one bed can be converted into two singles, providing flexibility for friends and families.

Home truths:
*At full capacity, two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in the living area.
*The super king-sized bed can be split into two singles upon request.
*There's only space for four people around the dining table.
*One free, designated parking spot is included with your stay.
*Please note that you'll have to collect the keys from a nearby shop before arrival. It's about a ten-minute walk away.
