Greenery in Manchester

“Nipped in on NYE to ask ask if I could get a modern bouquet made up. I hadn’t used this florist before. Delighted with the flowers. Thank you”

“This cafe should shout about itself more. Second visit and just as good as the first time. Everything we had was fresh and tasted home cooked. Generous portions and great value. We were spoilt for choice on the menu so tried the five salad option and a slice of the greek spanakopita. Both excellent and couldn’t fault seasoning and flavours. Dessert was great too.”

“Great place to eat and relax after a nice walk round Sale water park. Extremely dog friendly.”

“Halloween event. Lots of things to do. Friendly helpful staff. Loved stroking the animals. Great entertainment from a fabulous band called Trilogy.”

“Plenty of parking at a reasonable cost. Great fun for adults, teenagers, children and toddlers! Scenic views, a small farm with helpful animals handlers who are happy to answer questions, well-kept grounds, boat rides, decent-sized play areas for children of all ages, a cafe, a resident ice cream van and charcoal pizza options. A good place to enjoy the great outdoors - especially on a sunny day!”

“I like it here. A medium sized pond with a view up to the hills, on a quiet gravel road. Sometimes the cows come down to the water's edge, or the mist makes the whole scene gorgeous. Mallards, tufted ducks, coots, the occasional goosander, heron and kingfisher. Flocks of geese in the fields often. Swans nest here in the summer.”

“love spending time with my family here, so much to do, relaxing and peacful, great play area, great gardens, great green space, good cafe and just a stones throw from my home”

“Beautiful park. Great for walking dogs. Clean and tidy. Ice cream and coffee vans frequent.”

“Great experience! Ordered online a bouquet for my friend's mother and the flowers looked exceptional! Thank you very much to the entire team. Strongly recommend”

“Visited Sunday 7th December for the North Pole experience and all I can say is WOW what a fabulous experience it was. It is expensive but you do get a lot for your money. I will be definitely booking again next year.”

“Excellent play area. And the kids like it too. Good parking, good activities for all ages, especially the BIG slide.”

“A gem for a pit stop on a long distance hike! Comfy clean rooms. Solid breakfast Excellent accommodating service - even often us a lift to the start of out hike. Everything you need under one roof.”

“Our hanging baskets are now looking beautiful after a few days of sunshine, the front garden is such a joy to be in.”

“One of Tamesides hidden gems. The main entrance has 2 big open spaces for ball games etc. A young children's play area with a gated sand pit and further up the hill an older children's play area with climbing frames. But the best bit is the public orchard at the top of the hill and the wildlife sanctuary plus a plethora of wild walking paths. Popular with dog walkers (please pick up your dogs waste) and families alike. A good stroll around Cheathams will get the heart pumping and is a joy for the eye. 10/10.”

“Lovely walk, choice of routes with miles wide paths an option on muddier days, or over dirt tracks when weather better. Beautiful views, not ever too busy like dovestones can be. Lack of bins is my only issue, so occasionally see dog poo bags hanging on bushes, which is a shame.”

“It can be flooded this time of year,but it's still a very nice walk.”

“Nice park near the Stockport station. Has a good number of ducks and swans. Also, you can book for fishing here.”

“Nice family park - I liked it because of the central lake and it's tucked within a residential estate. Cute.”

“Lovely park well maintained by a great group of community volunteers. Lots to do and see gear for dog walks too.”

“Just a gorgeous spot in the middle of the woods. Beautiful house on the far bank and good for bird life. Paths mainly along one side and the top end with a jetty offering some good close ups to the ducks and swans. Really good for kids and wildlife alike.”

“A quiet little place to chill and relax. Just over the canal from Canal Street. It's the home of the Tree of Life and the Beacon of Hope memorials dedicated to those who have lost to their lives to AIDS. It's also the home of the Alan Turing memorial. This is a lovely place to visit during the day but, as I've been told, it can be a little bit different at night as there is very little lighting.”

“Visited Cheadle Green for the Makers Market which was fantastic. Some great stalls selling all sorts of things you didn't realise you needed. Also great food too! Highly recommended x”

“I originally visited this place under its previous management for breakfast and ended up with overpriced and bland bubble & squeak, ineptly served and decided that was that. Given its new management sign I decided to give it a go, and was not disappointed at all. Being a vegetarian one is forced by circumstance to become something of a connoisseur of cheese sandwiches, and the vegetarian club sandwich here is pretty close to perfect, with the creaminess of a large chunk of cheddar being well offset by the sweetness of beetroot and tomato that actually taste of beetroot and tomato. The beer selection is small and orientated to German lager, but of a very good quality and dwarfed by the winelist, coupled with an extensive number of teas and coffee and soft drinks, even the non-alcoholics wont be lacking in options. The decor itself isn't particularly anything to talk about, but more than eclipsed by the quality of the food and the character of the staff. In fact the only negative thing I can say about the place is that the mobile signal is dire, which is of no fault of the bar itself.”

“This is one of the most well maintained parks I've visited in Manchester. Abundance of trees present a tranquil atmosphere. Lovely walks and views of the reservoir - beautiful”

“Very lovely park to go to, whether it's for walking around or running. I've been here so many times I've lost count. Philips Park certainly is very spacious and is being kept in a very nice condition.”

“Most beautiful thing in bollington. We went on a trip to bollington and all the reviews that say that you must see here are not lying.”

“Very impressed! Spent a lovely autumn afternoon here with the children, great playparks for smaller and older children too, had a great walk in the woods, very clean, no litter, looks like a great place for making dens. We will definitely be back!”

“Great Park for the kids, plenty to do and enough seating for the adults.”

“Awesome place for a walk and to see some top railway history really nice area.”

“I loved the walk with my dog good for them to be off lead they love new places”
