Anyone know of anywhere local to stay, preferably within walking distance of the airfield?

Barton used to have an Airport Hotel until some numpty manager had it demolished

There's a cheapo chain hotel just up the road near Monton on the M60, but 4 1st hand info call the aerodrome, they speak a quaint northern dialect but it's perfectly understandable.

Ok thats a shame, an airport hotel would have been perfect.

I will give them a call in the morning. Any ideas on the cost to park overnight?

Pilot,

There is a Premier Inn/Travelodge over at the Trafford Centre. It also means you can fit in a bit of late night shopping and going bowling or go to the pictures.

Hi

There are several hotels in the local area. None really in walking distance, but a short taxi ride (Passenger Cars 0161 747 8000 or via the airfield reception), will get you to one within 5 mins.

All the nearby hotel details on the airfield website:
