Fun activities in Manchester

“Took a very nervous ECS, who hadn't been clipped for a long time. Previous attempts had failed. They were really good with her and got her clipped.”

“Always enjoyable here, my 18 month year old loves being able to run around. The food are always good, and the staff always welcoming! Always come on a Thursday morning and will continue to do so. Had my daughter's birthday party here as well, and you definitely get your money worth.”

“Really good local walk with wild deer waterfall and river well worth doing”

“Platt Fields Park is one of my favorite spots in Manchester! It’s perfect for all ages, with a beautiful lake, open spaces for picnics, and a playground for kids. There are also sports facilities and plenty of peaceful walking paths. A great place to relax and enjoy nature without leaving the city!”

“Absolutely beautiful park. Very special place for me since the 1960s. Visited for the first time since the late 70s/early 80s since moving out of the area. Heartbreaking what's happened to the buildings and beautiful conservatory etc but so wonderful to see what the various volunteer groups are achieving there, above all giving the Park love and TLC. Thank you.”

“Great place for kids. My little boy loves going there and has been goingfor the past three years. Great that they take the kids out on trips and the price is reasonable compared to other places. Staff always have a smile...”

“Good family and friends staff our okay”

“Went for a walk in the wood. lovely walk not too long”

“Wythenshawe Park and Gardens is one of the best green spaces in South Manchester, offering a mix of open fields, formal gardens, woodland walks, and family-friendly facilities. The park is well kept, with plenty of benches, flat paths for walking or cycling, and a relaxed atmosphere. The community farm and horticultural centre add extra interest, especially for younger visitors. There’s also a good café near the courtyard area, ideal for a quick lunch or coffee. It can get busy during events and weekends, but there's usually space to find a quiet corner. A reliable choice for a free day out with plenty to explore.”

“Easy to get to. It's Philips school. Son had a basketball match here, floor is concrete though. Ouch”

“Alicia was our party host for our son’s 11th party. She was professional, efficient and friendly. The whole thing was brilliant. We had 2 minor injuries which were dealt with very professionally with first aider being brilliant and providing excellent care and diligence. Free parking is brilliant too, would highly recommend!”

“I have just finished the 12 days adventure with Camp Thailand ran by reps Annabel and Tao. Had a fantastic time, very well organised and can’t speak highly enough of the pair of them for the work they do. Just lovely people! The tour itself allowed for plenty of free time along with pre-planned activities which meant we were kept busy but not too worn out!”

“A hidden gem. Doesn't look much from outside,and in middle of houses so don't expect a club there, but inside cosy welcoming and very friendly staff. Also has stage and puts on events, but l haven't seen any of these, yet.”

“Great centre, staff really helpful, clean. Classes amazing.”

“Good local pub. Have pocker night on a Thursday and sometimes karaoke or a singer on at a weekend. It's just been done up so lovely and clean.”

“You can’t beat old school multi roomed Holts pubs if you appreciate your heritage venues. Great service and the Holts Best Bitter is as good as it gets. If you’re passing - call in you won’t be disappointed.”

“All the dishes I had were amazing. The menu is seasonal , using local produce. Loved the asparagus dish, the tomato salad and the charred aubergine. They also cook proteins to perfection ! I wish every gastro pub would try to serve that top quality food. Reasonable prices. Just go!”
