The very best spas in Manchester to try this autumn
"With easy access to the M62/M1, this stylish 4-star hotel is just 6 miles from Leeds centre and the new First Direct Arena. Thorpe Park Hotel and Spa, part of Thwaites Hotels and the AA hotel group of the year, features a modern spa and leisure centre, boutique-style bedrooms and a creative restaurant. All rooms have free WiFi, tea/coffee making facilities, complimentary fresh milk and mineral water in your fridge, and each has a modern bathroom with a bath and walk-in shower; plus a hairdryer and fluffy bathrobes."
"This upmarket modern hotel, close to the M1 and five miles east of central Leeds, stands out for its creative dining and its extensive health and wellbeing facilities. The latter include a large swimming pool, a well-equipped gym and high-quality treatments using ESPA and Natura Bisse products."
"Rounding out the top ten, Thorpe Park is popular among visitors for its spa facilities, with the professionalism of the staff also getting praise from reviewers. Ratings correct as of April 2019. LeedsLive has launched a WhatsApp group to keep you up to date with the latest news!"
"A failsafe and firm favorite with lovebirds is Malmaison, easily one of the most romantic hotels in Manchester. The hotel is steeped in history; it was formerly a 19th-century cotton warehouse and a Victorian dolls’ hospital later. Glittering silver walls, red velvet sofas, and white-and-black tile floors greet you as you enter."
"A secret little hideaway where you can escape and find harmony and balance for both body and mind. Please note that the spa will remain closed until October 2021. For Further Information and To Book A Spa Day"

"Boasting one of the largest outdoor terrace areas in Manchester for outdoor drinking, The Shambles denotes the area bordered by historic medieval pubs The Old Wellington and Sinclair’s Oyster Bar. The black and white timber pubs were famously moved here and rebuilt brick-by-brick in 1999 next to Manchester Cathedral as part of the redevelopment of the city centre. The pubs are historic landmarks beloved of tourists to the city and are particularly busy on match days."
"Facilities are children’s play area, a visitors centre with toilets, a pond, a conservation area with a dipping platform, angling. Once the ash tip for east Manchester’s power station, it was greened up in the 1980s and since recent investment, is a key green space within the Medlock River Valley. Clayton Vale is a Local Nature Reserve and is a great place for families to enjoy woodland and riverside walks, cycling, picnicking, or pond dipping."
"Based in Horsforth, the kids will have a great time meeting the animals in the fields, including rheas, donkeys, geese, alpacas, prairie dogs, hens, goats and even a peacock. The grown ups, on the other hand, will enjoy browsing their shop where you can pick up fresh cuts of beef, chicken, pork, lamb and even their own handmade burgers. If you’re into fishing, make the most of their well stocked ponds which are open 7 days a week for you to grab a catch."
"Morley Leisure Centre has everything for you need for a quality dip. The 25-metre pool holds general swim sessions that everyone can enjoy, as well as Family Swim, SwimFit and Fun Session. They have a learner pool if you’re just starting out, and it’s also great for disabled swimmers, with state-of-the-art facilities like H-frame hoists, pool hoists and graded steps."
"For a delightful taste of the United States of America without having to set foot outside of Yorkshire, head to Rosie’s Diner on the Cardigan Fields retail park in Burley. The 50s-style diner is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and has a number of different menus to choose from. We recommend trying the classic American pancakes (with a variety a toppings) for a delicious breakfast treat."
