Please note: This property has steep narrow stairs and there is no handrail - extra care to be taken at all times.. Dating back to 1806, the Grade II Listed Smithy Lodge stands as a historical gem, once serving as the original gatehouse for Heaton Park within the esteemed Earls of Wilton estate. Its distinctive eight-sided design, a nod to a bygone era, has been meticulously restored, offering a unique opportunity to reside within the expansive grounds of one of Europe’s largest municipal parks. Perfect for couples and small groups, this enchanting lodge accommodates up to four guests, providing a distinctive retreat on the outskirts of Manchester city centre. As you step inside, the lower level unfolds into a comfortable lounge and a spacious kitchen/dining area, creating a welcoming atmosphere for relaxation and shared moments. Venture upstairs to discover two generously sized bedrooms and a bathroom, each exuding a timeless charm. The property retains specific features mandated by its original design and Grade II Listing—steep stairs without handrails, and ambient lighting primarily provided by lamps. While this may not cater to everyone’s preferences, it undoubtedly contributes to the property’s unique charm and historical character. Beyond the threshold lies Heaton Park, a historically significant and stunning green space, proudly listed as Grade II on the English Heritage Register of Parks. The park is home to the Manchester Beekeeper’s Association and boasts the only flat bowling greens in Manchester, purpose-built for the 2002 Commonwealth Games. Explore its diverse offerings, including cafes, a farm, a Tram Museum, a championship-quality golf course, and a serene boating lake. Heaton Park hosts a vibrant year-round calendar of events, ranging from intimate recitals in the Heaton Hall music room to iconic outdoor concerts featuring renowned artists like Oasis and The Stone Roses. Smithy Lodge and Heaton Park are conveniently located in proximity to both Prestwich and Whitefield, offering easy access to the usual amenities such as shops, cafes, bars, and restaurants. The bustling centre of Manchester is a mere 3.5 miles away. On the opposite side of Heaton Park sits the Heaton Park tram stop, providing a convenient alternative for those looking to explore Manchester and its suburbs, including Altrincham, Didsbury, Old Trafford, and Salford Quays, among others. Can comfortably fit up to 4 people
Had a great stay at Smithy Lodge. From looking on a map and when we arrived, we were very concerned about road noise but inside it was so quiet. The beds were also extremely comfy so sleep was not a problem. All the interior was also finished to a high standard and very usable. Would have been great to have a TV and wifi even though the break from it was nice! All in all, really enjoyed our stay.
Great whilst there, staff at the park are available to help with check in / out and any issues. The lodge itself was interesting and had everything we needed. The issues I had around this booking were prior to the stay, I had wanted to change dates and the communication around this was very difficult. Back and forth between cottages,com and Airbnb, a change was agreed but then an issue over the pricing that no one could seem to resolve. Advice would be if you want to book this lodge do so directly through cottages,com and not Airbnb.
Great accommodation. Hosts communicated very well and we were contacted prior to arrival to enter our registration for parking. Ideal for us working in the area.
