‘If sitting outside enjoying a drink of beer or wine is your thing you won’t find a better venue than this’\"TheThe Wine Press at Hollingworth Lake (Image: Rochdale Observer)<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not often we\u2019re blessed with an August bank holiday as glorious as this one. Usually they can be a bit of a wash out but today Greater Manchester has enjoyed wall to wall sunshine.<\/p>\n

Many of us will be enjoying the weather<\/a> with a barbecue at home, or perhaps a picnic in the park.<\/p>\n

But a nice way to round off the day is with a trip to a beer garden, where you can relax with a refreshing drink and soak up the last rays of sunshine. It\u2019s also a nice distraction if you\u2019re back at work tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Across Greater Manchester are beer gardens<\/a> in all shapes and sizes, from tiny city-centre courtyards to canal-side terraces.<\/p>\n

Head to Littleborough in Rochdale<\/a> and you\u2019ll find a beer garden with perhaps one of the best views in Greater Manchester.<\/p>\n

The Wine Press is a restaurant-turned-pub with outdoor seating which overlooks Hollingworth Lake, providing the perfect spot for a pint, glass of wine or soft drink while the sun sets.<\/p>\n

If you want to make an evening of it the menu features classic pub dishes including pies, steaks and burgers. But it\u2019s the incredible views across the water which really make this place stand out, as many visitors have highlighted.<\/p>\n

One reviewer wrote on Tripadvisor: \u201cFantastic place with amazing views over the lake… the staff are second to none and make every visit special. Great menu and great selection of drinks!\u201d<\/p>\n

Another said: \u201cWe are regular visitors to the Wine Press and live in the area of Littleborough. If sitting outside enjoying a drink of beer or wine is your thing you won’t find a better venue than this, the views over Hollingworth Lake are stunning.\u201d<\/p>\n

You could even make the most of the light evening (while it lasts) and enjoy a stroll beside the water before or after your pub visit, and make the most of this bank holiday Monday.<\/p>\n
