  • "We've been back to this cottage many times."

    The area is great for walking and many walks can be done from the cottage. Half a mile down the road is Leeshaw Reservoir where you can see Lapwing, Curlew and other water birds. Haworth is 1 mile down the hill on the pavement next to the road. Alternatively you can reach it off road via the Railway Children Walk or via the Bronte Way, both lovely walks. At the back of the house there is a field with a horse in it. It's great to take in the view from the sitting room watching the horse, rabbits and birds. We hope to be going back again.

About the location

OXENHOPE

Haworth 2 miles; Hebden Bridge 6 miles; Skipton 14 miles.

The small village of Oxenhope lies amid wonderful scenery, and offers the chance to take advantage of the multitude of walks in the area. The village, with its shops, churches and pubs, is home to the terminus for the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, an authentic steam railway brought to prominence in the film The Railway Children, which runs on a regular basis to Haworth and on down to Keighley. The area was made famous by the Bronte sisters, and the outstanding countryside was famously described in the novel Wuthering Heights as wild, rugged and barren. The area abounds with popular places to visit; the cobbled streets of Haworth, the Bronte Parsonage Museum, East Riddlesden Hall, and the Museum of Rail. The market town of Skipton, known as the Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, is a short drive away, and also within reach are elegant Harrogate and vibrant Leeds.
