Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in Chinley

"MOSI is one of the best museums for children in Manchester, although there is plenty to excite the adults while their kids run wild playing with the experiments on the top floor. Based around Manchester’s importance in the history of the development of science, technology and transport, vast halls house relics of the industrial revolution, old steam trains and early fighter jets. All of the displays and exhibits seem to be designed with children in mind, as everything is fun and vibrant and there’s plenty to interact with."

"Since Manchester stood at the forefront of the society-shifting industrial revolution, it is of no surprise that the area has continued to forge new and exciting pathways forward in the fields of science and industry. This makes the existence of the Museum of Science & Industry a necessary and exciting inclusion within Manchester’s cultural landscape. Visit this truly stunning museum in order to learn more about the ideas that have changed, and continue to change, the world around us."

"The Science and Industry Museum is on the site of the world's oldest railroad station. Its 12 galleries include the Power Hall, with water and steam-driven machines from the golden age of the textile industry, as well as vintage made-in-Manchester cars, including a rare 1904 Rolls Royce. The history of the city from Roman times through the Industrial Revolution to the present day is documented in the Station Building."

"As the name suggests, the Imperial War Museum takes visitors on a walk through military history. There is a range of interactive and static exhibits here and the museum sits on The Quays, another iconic area of Manchester. Afterwards, pop over to Elnecot for a tasty bite to eat."

"The People’s History Museum, or the National Museum of Democracy, exhibits the entire spectrum of British social past, its present and future. Visitors can learn about the history of working rights in Britain, women equality, social justice, voting rights and several other elements of the UK’s political and social fabric. The collections at the museum include thousands of trade union banners, badges, political manifestoes and posters."

"The story of Britain's 200-year march to democracy is told in all its pain and pathos at this superb museum, housed in a refurbished Edwardian pumping station. You clock in on the 1st floor (literally: punch your card in an old mill clock, which managers would infamously fiddle with so as to make employees work longer) and plunge into the heart of Britain's struggle for basic democratic rights, labour reform and fair pay."

"Exhibits the 200-year story of British democracy, and the quest for equality for all. The People’s History Museum underwent a swanky redevelopment in 2010 and famously has the largest number of trade union items in the world, with over 400, with some dating back as far as the 19th century.

"Our son had been looking forward to some foot rest with a good book!. If you wish to study any of the 1.4 million rare books, manuscripts or maps in the library collections you can do so by prior appointment and pre-arranged membership. As the museum is a short visit, it may not be worth a special trip with kids in tow."

"The John Rylands Library in Manchester is a breath-taking library. It opened in 1900 as a tribute to Enriqueta Ryland’s husband John Ryland. You can find statues of the both of them in the main hall."

"Since opening their doors in November 2015, Hope Mill Theatre has become one of the most successful independent venues in England. Located in Ancoats, they produce full scale musicals from their Grade II listed former mill. The theatre will be reopening this summer, as well as hosting Hope Fest, an outdoor arts and culture festival."

"This wonderful independent venue, located out in New Islington, was one of the few theatres that managed to reopen last year after lockdown. It'll be back again with a reduced capacity and socially distanced seating for a Meet Me At Dawn, from HER Productions. You can get tickets at hopemilltheatre.co.uk."

"There’s an early taste of the Peak District right on Macclesfield’s eastern flank at this park on the slopes of the dominant Tegg’s Nose hill. As soon as you arrive at the car park, there’s a handy visitor centre with leaflets and information boards about the hill’s human history and wildlife. For hundreds of years the Tegg’s Nose was quarried for millstone grit, and an old quarry site has been preserved and labelled with signs."

"A rock'n'roll haven with a passion for mixology, this unique Sheffield cocktail bar has an extensive range of quality sips, alongside some of the most party-ready interiors in town. Head over to Kuckoo for a night of indie hits and top-notch tipples."

"Located right in the heart of the city, Picadilly Gardens is the tranquil antidote to an otherwise buzzing city centre. Throughout the year there are events on including music and art events. From Wednesday to Sunday there is the Street food market which is perfect for a delicious bite to eat."

"It would be wrong to say to come to this park to escape the city’s hustle and bustle. Instead, you will be able to feel the buzz of the Mancunians meeting, eating, drinking and joking. If you want to sit down on one of the many benches or seats and people watch, this is the park for you."

"The Heights of Abraham is a hilltop park on top of Masson Hill in Peak District. It is located in Matlock Bath, a quite-essential, picturesque English village. It’s a great tourist attraction and can be reached by either the Heights of Abraham cable car or a very steep zig-zag path."
