Think of Manchester and you might think of the Trafford centre or Old Trafford itself. Perhaps the music scene appeals? Either way, finding a great deal on a fabulous spa day in Greater Manchester should definitely be the very top of your to-do list while you're in this well-loved part of England.

There are plenty of urban spa hotels to choose from, either in the city or further afield in slightly quieter but just as upmarket Wigan or Bolton. Seek out the serenity of a pamper day in a deliciously reviving health farm and make the most of having all that fun, shopping and nightlife so close - but being able to shut the door on it for yet another spa massage. Bliss....
