Previous visitors' comments about The Old Bull Stall:

An excellent cottage in a great location. There is plenty to do and visit near to the property. It is a quiet, safe and tranquil area.
Mr Duffy, September 2011

The owners were very, very friendly. There are many different animals at the farm. It is very quiet and it's a really nice cosy cottage. It was possible to use the owners garden.
Mr Rensing, July 2011

We had a great family holiday at The Old Bull Stall and we were made to feel very welcome. We were looked after and the owners let our little two year old collect the eggs and gave her a tour of the farm. This is a great cottage and its well worth booking!
Mr Steele, Huddersfield, June 2011

The owners were a very friendly couple. Fresh farm eggs, milk and flapjacks on arrival and a vase of flowers on the table. A lovely holiday.
