You can now stay in a quirky historic lodge built more than 200 years ago in Heaton Park

Guests can now book an overnight stay in a quirky and historic lodge nestled in Manchester's Heaton Park.

The Smithy Lodge, designed back in 1772 for Sir Thomas Egerton and built over 200 years ago, is a quaint little round building that has now been opened up for holiday lettings.

Situated beside the entrance gates to the park, also known for hosting the annual Parklife festival and Lightopia, the Grade II Listed former gatehouse offers a cosy living room, kitchen/diner, two upstairs bedrooms and a bathroom surrounded by the beautiful greenery.
