Manchester See & Do

Manchester is a sophisticated, vibrant city in the north of England, reknown for its music, sport and shopping as well as its impressive museums and cultural heritage. But there’s much more to the area than just the city’s bright lights and big exhibitions; the surrounding countryside is gorgeous and just waiting to be explored. Choose Manchester for a lively break, full of adventure and surprise.

When it comes to museums and art, Manchester rivals any other European city. Exploring the cost of human war, the award-winning IWM North situated on the quays houses some of the biggest and most dramatic museum collections in the country. Stop at Manchester Art Gallery for some impressive collections housed in a stunning Victorian building – but be warned, it could take you all day to get around. Just outside of the city, neighbouring the Manchester University grounds, you’ll also find the Whitworth Gallery, a haven for home art and design lovers.

Iconic spaces worth a look include the art deco Daily Express Building, the Royal Exchange, the Victoria Baths and the Central Library. A real gem of a find is the John Rylands Library; more like a cathedral than a library, this excellent example of Victorian Gothic architecture holds valuable treasures such as medieval manuscripts and the oldest known piece of the New Testament.

Sports lovers will adore the Manchester City experience at Etihad Stadium, or the Manchester United Museum and Tour – depending upon personal taste. For adventure sports, head to the Chill Factor for the chance to ski or snowboard indoors on real snow all year round. You can also try your hand at sledging and the latest craze – snowscoot, a cross between BMX biking and snowboarding.

Recommended scenic drives: Once you’ve collected your hire car from Manchester airport, head out to see what Greater Manchester and its surrounding area has to offer. Head to Tatton Park to see the 19th century mansion, housed in over 50 acres of award winning gardens boasting over 200 years of history and design. Next, visit the Stockport Air Raid Shelters museum, carved into natural sandstone cliffs under the city, to experience life during 1940s wartime Britain. Also visit Castlefield, site of the 79AD Roman fort of Mamucium and the world’s first ever canal system, Bridgewater Canal.

For picturesque scenery, try the iconic Wigan Pier and drive through the Douglas Valley, visiting Dean Wood and Appley Bridge. For peace and quiet, head up to the secluded Piethorne Valley, high up in the Pennine moors. Here you’ll have plenty of hiking or driving options, with Victorian reservoirs, rolling hills and wild moorland making up the beautiful backdrop.

Drive over to nearby Huddersfield for some wonderful routes along meandering country lanes, taking in gorgeous waterways, quaint cottages, pretty rural villages and canal boats. Just on the outskirts of Leeds, there’s a beautiful little village called Saltaire, famous for its old salt mill, cobbled streets, grade II listed buildings old railway station and circular church – perfect for a daytrip to somewhere traditional and serene.
