I have just stayed for four days. Frances is a very welcoming and friendly person, who gave me advice on shops and public transport etc when appropriate/requested. She was always ready to deal with queries or problems, and offered help with practical issues, as I was on my own. The experience is very much of being a visitor to her home, and I shared the kitchen, dining room and bathroom without apparent inconvenience to either of us! She has a nice garden, front and back. The area is quiet and residential but cafes and supermarkets, and bus stops, are on the main road about 5-10 minutes' walk. The tram is about 10 minutes - probably less if you're a fast walker!
I would be happy to stay there again when I go to Manchester.
