With the chaos
and stress that modern day living brings, taking a break
in the countryside can give you the perfect opportunity
to relax for a change. But if you’re looking for a rural retreat close enough to the city to still do some sightseeing, then Manchester offers a good range of country breaks less than an hour from the city centre. Just a 15-minute drive from Manchester city centre and you’ll feel you’ve entered a whole new world when you arrive in the scenic village of Worsley. As well as being home to many famous footballers and TV stars, it is also where you’ll find the Marriott Hotel and Country Club [map]. This luxury hotel is set in 200-acres of picturesque woodland where you can relax and enjoy a picnic, gentle stroll or just take in the views. And if doing a bit of exercise helps you to relax then you’re in luck as guests have access to an 18-hole championship golf course, 20-metre swimming pool and fitness club. There is also an award-winning restaurant, a bar, 24-hour room service, and for business visitors, Internet connection and computer facilities, as well as conference rooms. For a more traditional country retreat then head out to the beautiful Cheshire town of Wilmslow – a firm favourite with Posh and Becks. Here you’ll find the Stanneylands Hotel, a wonderful Edwardian country house set in acres of landscaped gardens with excellent views. The hotel is within easy reach of local tourist attractions such as Quarry Bank Mill, Tatton Park, Arley Hall and Jodrell Bank space centre. It also has a top quality restaurant, a cocktail lounge and fitness facilities for those who want to start getting back in shape. If you’re in need of total rejuvenation then the Village Hotel and Leisure Club [map] on the edge of the breathtaking Peak District has several facilities to help relieve your stress. Located in the village of Cheadle less than an hour from Manchester city centre, the hotel has a huge gymnasium, as well as a Salingers Restaurant with an a la carte menu. Here there is no doubt that relaxation is top of the management’s list of priorities for guests as there is also a swimming pool, whirlpool, solarium and sauna available to guests during their stay. So whatever the reason you need to get away from it all, a trip to one of Manchester’s country hotels is well worth it.
