North West England covers all the major cities and towns in the five counties of North West England; Cheshire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, and Merseyside.

Each guide includes a comprehensive selection of hotels and other accommodation options, places to visit and things to do, plus shopping centres and details of transport links. All include interactive maps.

The North West of England. The name conjures images of bustling cities, iconic music scenes, and football rivalries. And while Manchester and Liverpool undoubtedly hold magnetic appeal, to define this region solely by its urban centres is to miss out on a wealth of breathtaking landscapes, rich history, and a uniquely warm northern spirit that permeates every corner.

Beyond the vibrant cityscapes lies a tapestry of contrasting beauty; from the dramatic peaks and shimmering lakes of the Lake District National Park to the windswept coastlines and charming seaside towns. This is a region where rolling green fields abruptly give way to rugged fells, where industrial heritage intertwines with ancient history, and where the friendly banter of locals is as much a part of the landscape as the dry-stone walls that crisscross the countryside.
