"Excellent park for a decent length walk, plenty of wildlife along the way. There are many birds and a couple of foxes around dusk. There is also plenty of space and singing birds."

"Climb up to Hen’s Cloud, go past the mysterious Doxey Pool and then across the Roaches to bag the Roaches trig!. The Roaches is a popular spot with climbers and rock enthusiasts. It is thought that wallabies (released from a zoo) roam the area, but we didn’t manage to spot any, so it may be a legend."

"The Roaches is located above Leek and Tittesworth Reservoir and is loved by hikers and climbers alike. The impressively rugged and steep gritstone ridge is home to mythical mermaids and 15 metre natural gritstone clefts."

"We spent a beautiful weekend in the Roaches and it is the best place for walking enthusiasts in the Peaks!. There are also some beautiful rock formations."

"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. Tucked away from Warrington’s main town centre, where you will find all your standard high street shops and some small independent boutiques too, you will find Woolston Park. A wonderful way to spend a Sunday morning or sunny weekday after work, Woolston Park is a much-loved spot by local people."

"The Trafford Ecology Park is tucked away in the industrial Trafford Park behind an oil depot and is a registered Biological Important site and a true oasis of wildlife. The park is spread across an area of eleven acres and is a true delight for a nature enthusiast."

"The infamous restaurant that's taking the UK by storm, chef Nico Simeone's Six by Nico is a real dining experience. Head to Spring Gardens where you'll find moody interiors, quirky dishes and paired wines. Expect tasting menus that change every 6 weeks."

"Britannia Country House Hotel is just a hop, skip, and a jump from the Manchester Airport— 3.2km away from the airport if you wanted a more measurable amount of time!. Guests can enjoy a gym, pool, and two restaurants including a pizzeria on-site to keep the whole family entertained. Rooms are clean and spacious so families won’t feel cramped inside."
