129 Didsbury

This is an exceptional rental property that succeeds brilliantly in striking the balance between style and practicality. It's an ingenious, skilful and prizewinning conversion with excellent facilities and a convenient location for accessing local services plus retail, sporting and cultural locations in the area and further afield. The owner, architect, designer and hands on builder and maintainer is a pleasure to deal with. He's prompt and civilised in dealing with booking and other arrangements but he's also helpful in person when you're in residence.

We loved 129didsbury, it was very comfortable and the decor was delightful with lots of attention to detail. Everything you need is there, the beds are comfy, the sofa squishy and fresh coffee beans to boot. Its beautiful and clean. Car parking is very handy just right outside the premises and the tram is 5 minutes walk away, which we used constantly. Situated near a high street makes it handy for a quick buy of provisions or a nice coffee and cake.

Ideally I’d like to keep 129 Didsbury a secret but it’s too good not to share! Stunning interior. Superb attention to detail. Wonderful night’s sleep in an exceptional bed with the best of bed linen and pillows. Spotlessly clean. Great parking. We can’t wait to come back. Beverley Collins

129 Didsbury is a little gem with a big personality. Although the property is near a main road it is quiet inside, especially the bedrooms which are both at the back. There is generous storage and hanging space in both bedrooms. The two parking spaces immediately in front of the property are easy to access. The kitchen is of high quality and well equipped. The location is superb, just a few minutes walk to bustling Burton Road with its independent shops and restaurants and nearest tram stop, which gives easy access to the city centre. We're already planning our next visit!

We had a lovely, comfortable stay at 129 Didsbury. We had to move out of our family home for a few weeks, just after Christmas so it was really important to us to stay in a “home from home” with our family. It certainly was that! A beautiful place with such an eye for detail and everything we needed, from coffee grinder to cosy throws, to a selection of books and DVD’s; we didn’t want for anything. A minute’s walk from the lovely Burton Rd, which, even in Lockdown was bustling with its independent cafes offering various takeaway options. We would highly recommend staying here!

The house was immaculate, very comfortable and to a high standard. It was also exceptionally clean which is great in the current environment. The location is also convenient for local restaurants and shops. We will definitely be back.

David’s place is an absolute haven of tranquility. Everything is beautifully curated with detail and colour. No expense has been spared to make his guests feel cosseted and welcome. Our son has just started his first term at Manchester University and I’m thrilled to have found a ‘second home’ with 129 Didsbury for future visits. Thank you David.

Excellent place - can't recommend highly enough. Beautifully appointed property in an excellent location. Close to cafes/bars/shops. Spacious rooms with super comfy beds. Very friendly and helpful host.

We stayed for a couple of nights whilst visiting friends. The accommodation was very high quality and very handily placed for the restaurants [2 minutes walk]. David, the owner, communicated well and has provided pretty much all that is needed for a stay away. I will definitely stay again when we return to the area.

David gave us such a warm welcome and was able to answer any questions we had about the area - nothing was too much trouble The house was spotless and beautifully conceived - everything of the highest quality - West Didsbury had everything we needed and Manchester was easily accessible - would highly recommend 129

The only disappointment was that Man United didn't beat Liverpool! The house was perfect for our needs - really liked the quirky or old furnishings with the modern. A great location which was convenient for the bus & tram up to town. We felt lucky to have the Craft market on Sunday & bought a couple of great pieces as well as the best eccles cakes. We'll definitely come back when we're up for the footie another time. Thank you!

The cottage was perfect for a chilled break in trendy Didsbury - we were sorry to leave!

129 Didsbury is such a wonderful place to stay. It's like returning home. As soon as we walk through the door we feel relaxed. The owners have taken great care to think of everything. Everything about the property just works, the decor is simple yet delightful and the kitchen is just fantastic. All the eclectic shops and restaurants of West Didsbury are a two minute stroll away, which is perfect.This is our third visit here and it won't be our last. I cannot imagine staying anywhere else when we visit Manchester.

129 Didsbury is a treat of a place - the ultimate mixture of architecture and design - David has meticulously thought about every detail and you can tell - it's got a great calming feel, stop looking and get booking, you won't regret staying here!

We had a lovely time staying in David's gorgeous house. His attention to detail with the fixtures and fittings and the fab styling made it a joy to come home to each day. A great location too with all the fun bars and restaurants on the Burton Road in Didsbury.

129 Didsbury is a wonderful place to stay and David an extraordinary caring host. We enjoyed a perfectly equipped cottage and all the beautiful details of style. If we ever come back to Manchester it is no question to chose this place again. Thank you very much for a wonderful stay!

Exceptionally well designed cottage conversion. High quality furnishings and thoughtfully equipped. Owner, David, could not have been more helpful in tailoring the cottage for our visit. Great Sunday brunch a few doors down the road at Thyme Out. We found it very conveniently located for visiting central Manchester - 10 min walk to tram. Didsbury itself was lovely with a village atmosphere and interesting shops and restaurants.

You are our No1 host & our stay was a comfortable & restful one. You have been helpful & accommodating. Your cottage is hip & cool. We are looking forward to coming here again.
