Living with Host
A Victorian terrace house on a quiet cul-de-sac which has been lovingly re-decorated and renovated over the past 5 years. Our home is comfortable, colourful, full of books, plants, records, artwork and musical instruments.
Your bedroom has recently been fully re-decorated - re-plastered, re-painted and with the original wooden floorboards sanded and restored. It has a double bed, a desk, full-size mirror, plants, wifi and plenty of storage. It's very comfortable and cosy.
The bathroom is next door and downstairs you'll have access to the spacious lounge/living room, a well-equipped kitchen and a beautiful green back-yard that's made an appearance on Gardeners World.
We are a child-free couple and don't have any pets. We'll be working during the day (mix of from home and out and about), so just make yourself comfortable. You can walk to the city centre in 30-40 minutes. We're also very well-connected to buses and trams to get you around. There is free parking on the road outside.
There are two parks a few minutes walk away and the neighbourhood has a vibrant community feel with lots of local shops a few minutes away on Ayres Road.
Any specific questions please just get in touch :-)

Owen and Sam were so kind and really lovely hosts to stay with - easy walk to the Lowry and super homely and comfortable house!

Thanks for the lovely review Christian - welcome back anytime :)
This is a lovely space - incredibly relaxing, very friendly hosts, and great communication. There are excellent links transporting to and from the Lowry, or a 30-40 min walk (if Manchester can stay dry for that long!). You will have everything you need here for short and longer term stays. The highlight is the comfiest bed, and the very tasteful decor! Would definitely stay again when in Salford!

Thanks for the lovely review, Ashton. Enjoy the shows :-)
Owen and Sam were amazing hosts. They very polite and friendly and gave up lots of good suggestions for places to go and things to do. The room was lovely, clean and tidy with a super comfy bed. Transport into the theatre was super simple just a short bus ride. We really enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again. Thank you both!

Thanks for the lovely review Lara. Best of luck with the tour :-)
I had a lovely 2-week stay at Owen and Sam's place, and would definitely recommend. It's quiet, clean and the double bed is very comfy (though I did use ear plugs just in case of any noise). Sam and Owen were friendly and accommodating throughout. The neighbourhood feels safe and is just a 30-min walk from the Lowry. Most days I rode a Starling bike to the theatre (there are 2 racks round the corner from the house). The bikes are fine, though be warned: unlocking them can be temperamental!

Thanks for the lovely review Howard. Welcome back anytime. All the best,
Owen & Sam
Another great stay at Owen's digs. Lovely, comfy room in a nice clean house. Only a short walk to the Lowry.

Thanks Roan :) Welcome back anytime. All the best for your future shows
Owen provides the perfect digs! A comfortable, clean and beautifully decorated room in a classily appointed house.
Owen and his partner Sam are lovely guys who made me feel very welcome.
For me, the location was ideal too: Starling Bikes (like London’s ’Boris’ bikes) are located outside the Lowry theatre and in the next street to the house (1 minute’s walk). The cycle ride is 10-15 minutes; I loved it as an opportunity to unwind in the fresh air after working hard in the theatre!

Thanks for the fab review and lovely feedback Steve, it's greatly appreciated! Good to know the bike hire did the business as well. Best wishes for the next run of shows and your future projects :)
Owen & Sam were so helpful and welcoming. I couldn’t have asked for more from them or their beautiful home for my short but busy few days in Salford. Quiet, stylish and comfortable digs, with friendly, easy going and kind hosts. I will definitely be back. Thank you both

Welcome back any time Gemma. Thanks for the lovely feedback :)
Owen and Sam were excellent hosts and their house is lovely. Well organised and great communication from the outset. The house was easy to find and well located. The room was very comfy and matched with a great shower and kitchen facilities. I would aim to stay here again.

Thanks for the lovely review Tom. Welcome back any time. Enjoy the concerts :)
I had such a.wonderful and enjoyable stay with Owen and Sam. The bed is comfy and the room is very cosy (right next to the bathroom ) and plenty of space to store your clothes.
They really allow you to make yourself at home and they have such a stylish, lovely and welcoming home. Only 15 mins cycle from the Lowry or 30 mins by bus too. Would definitely recommend these digs! A home away from home! Thank you both. :)

Owen and Sam were so lovely and welcoming! My room was really nice too, very comfortable bed :) I had everything I wanted and needed. About 40min walk to The Lowry, where I was working, which was fine for me. Great value, would definitely book again!

Thanks for the lovely review Perdi. Hope the shows go well. We'd happily welcome you back anytime :)
I really enjoyed my stay at Sam and Owen's. Their home is delightful; beautifully decorated and within walking distance of the city centre. The hosts couldn't be more warm and welcoming. My stay was faultless, I had everything I needed. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone considering booking it.
