'We built a canal boat as a side hustle - now it's one of Manchester's top-rated Airbnbs'

Airbnbs have become a popular choice for weekend city breaks and rural staycations across the UK. Manchester now has a huge array of Airbnb rentals - ranging from stylish homes and quaint cabins to rustic loft conversions.

Not only do Airbnbs tend to offer more privacy and space than a traditional hotel would, but they often allow you to experience a unique stay that's out of the ordinary realm.

Amongst the top-rated Airbnbs in Manchester is The Vätten Hüs - a luxury ' VIP' canal boat marketed as a 'floating penthouse'. Docked on the scenic Castlefield locks next to Dukes 92, the boat is set in a prime city-centre location whilst giving guests a feel of what it's like to live on a millionaire's yacht.
