Overview
Whether you're gathering the family for a special occasion, travelling with friends for a weekend event or working in the area with your colleagues, Platt House gives you the space to settle in, spread out and make yourselves at home.
Sleeping up to 12 guests across five bedrooms and an additional double sofa bed, this welcoming, dog friendly house is a practical and comfortable alternative to booking several hotel rooms. With two separate lounges, a generous dining area and a private garden, there's plenty of room to spend time together without feeling on top of one another.
Room for everyone to get a good night's sleep
After a busy day, retreat to one of five thoughtfully furnished bedrooms, each with its own Smart TV.
The sleeping arrangements include two double bedrooms and three twin bedrooms, with the twin beds offering flexible configurations to suit your group. Whether you're travelling with family, friends or work colleagues, you'll appreciate being able to choose a setup that works for you.
An additional double sofa bed in the smaller lounge brings the total sleeping capacity to 12.
Two lounges, twice the flexibility
One of the best things about Platt House is having more than one space to relax.
Put your feet up in the main lounge, settle into the comfortable seating and catch up on your favourite programmes. Meanwhile, someone else can enjoy a little quiet time in the second lounge.
It's especially useful when you're travelling as a larger group, giving everyone a little breathing room.
Cook, eat and catch up together
Forget trying to coordinate restaurant bookings for a dozen people every evening.
Your well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals at home, whether that's a quick breakfast before heading to work, packed lunches for a day out or a proper family dinner.
The generous dining area provides a welcoming space to sit down together, share stories from the day and plan tomorrow's adventures.
Large doors connect the dining space to the garden, bringing in plenty of natural light.
Your own private outdoor space
On warmer days, head outside and make the most of the private garden.
Enjoy your morning coffee in the fresh air, fire up the BBQ for a relaxed evening meal or simply sit back and unwind while the rest of your group catches up indoors.
And because dogs are welcome, your four-legged companions can join you on your Wigan getaway too.
A practical base for working away
If you're visiting Wigan for work, you'll find Platt House particularly convenient.
With five bedrooms, flexible sleeping arrangements, fast WiFi, parking and a fully equipped kitchen, you can enjoy the comforts of home while working away.
There's room to prepare your own meals, relax in the evening and settle into a routine, making the house well suited to both short assignments and longer stays.
A comfortable base for events and family gatherings
Heading to a rugby or football match? Attending a festival, wedding or family celebration? Perhaps you're planning a weekend with friends and simply need somewhere everyone can stay together.
