Our places in Manchester
Most places here sleep groups, with six bedrooms at the top end and three at the lower end. The usual night is on the dearer side for a short break, but it covers a whole house rather than a single cabin. The cheapest nights are well below the usual figure, and they tend to be for smaller properties sleeping seven or eight. The ratings are good, at about 8.6 out of 10. Large groups should check bedroom numbers as well as total guests, since some places sleep many people in fewer rooms.
Manchester is not where most people look for a log cabin, and the stays here reflect that. These are large houses and lodges built for groups, with a hot tub at almost every one. If you are planning a birthday, a family get-together or a weekend with friends, the choice is wide. A couple wanting a small cabin will find far less.
The typical group size is nearly ten guests, and the biggest place sleeps 22. Nightly prices are usually high because you are paying for space, though the cost per person comes out lower than the headline suggests. Around 64% of places accept pets, which helps if the dog is joining the party. Log burners are rare, found at about one place in seven. A few stays cost far less than the rest, so it pays to compare several dates before you settle.
Features
A hot tub is almost standard, with 21 of the 22 places having one. Gardens come next, at around three places in four. Fewer have a high chair, and log burners and barbecues each appear at only three places. One place has a private pool. The dearer averages for log burners, barbecues and the pool reflect the very large properties that carry them, not the feature itself. If a log burner matters, you have only a handful of options, so book early.

By number of guests
Places sleeping 10 to 11 are dearest per person, partly because they tend to have five bedrooms. The 12 to 14 band works out cheaper per person than the one below it, though only three places fall in it. Larger groups should compare per-person costs rather than just the nightly rate.
Prices climb steadily from November through to April. November is the cheapest month shown, and April is clearly the dearest, with the months between rising a little each time. Availability is tightest in November, when fewer dates remain open, and loosens through winter. January and February have the most free dates. A winter week usually costs a little less than a week outside winter, so the saving is modest. If your dates are flexible, early winter gives you the lowest rates.

Around Manchester
Nearby towns give you other ways to price a break. Oldham has the most places of the surrounding towns, and it has some of the lowest starting prices, as does Macclesfield. Glossop is also cheaper than the city's usual night. Hayfield, Birch Vale and Chapel en le Frith have fewer places and start higher. These are closer to the edge of the Peak District, so they suit walkers. If you want the city for evenings out, stay in Manchester. If hills matter more, look east and south.
Are the lodges in Manchester suitable for couples?
Mostly not. Nearly all places sleep seven or more guests, and the typical stay is for a group of nearly ten. A couple would pay for space they do not need. Smaller cabins are easier to find in the towns around the city.
Which group size gives the best value per person?
Places sleeping 7 to 9 are usually cheapest per person. The 12 to 14 band is next, and the 10 to 11 band costs the most per head. Check the bedroom count too, since it affects how comfortable the stay is.
Do many places have a log burner?
No. Only about one place in seven has a log burner or fireplace. A hot tub is far more common, at 95% of places. If you want a fire, filter for it and book early.
Which months are cheapest for a stay?
November is the cheapest month shown, and prices rise each month through to April. January and February have the most free dates. Winter weeks usually cost a little less than weeks outside winter.
How much does a lodge or cabin in Manchester cost?
Based on the prices we check every day, a night in one of these lodges or cabins in Manchester usually costs £290, and a week in winter around £2,397 (£2,726 the rest of the year). Prices depend mostly on the dates and the size of the property.
