Richard's house fits the description - it's cosy and we felt just at home. It was in a great location for visiting friends who lived in Salford/MediaCity but might be a little bit far out for people who want to constantly nip in and out of the city centre (it takes about half an hour on the tram). The house was clean and tea/coffee/milk/bread/butter/jam was provided, which was a nice touch. Richard also has a great book collection and a piano for entertainment on rainy days.
