The small village of Haworth was home to the famous Bronte sisters, who were inspired by the surrounding moorland to pen their novels which have become classics of English Literature. Haworth is a village that time almost forgot, with its myriad of curiosity and antique shops, alleyways and cobbled streets creating a wonderful period atmosphere and all this against a backdrop of countryside famously described in the novel Wuthering Heights as wild, rugged and barren. Nearby the famous Worth Valley Railway, an authentic steam railway brought to prominence in the film ‘The Railway Children’, provides a lovely day out with a regular service to the old village of Oxenhope. The area abounds with popular places to visit, including the Bronte Parsonage Museum, East Riddlesden Hall, and the Museum of Rail. The market town of Skipton, Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, is just a short drive away, and also within reach are elegant Harrogate and vibrant Leeds and Manchester.

It was so homely and welcoming. The village was picturesque. It was perfect, thank you.
Mr Brookes, Redditch, October 2011
The property owner was very friendly and made us feel extremely welcome. The position of the cottage in the centre of Haworth Main Street could not be better. I would have no hesitation in recommending this cottage to my friends and family. In a word, faultless!
Mr Millar, Crowborough, August 2011
The whole family loved the cottage; it was a true home-from-home and the personal touches that were made to makes us welcome upon our arrival were much appreciated. We have already recommended the property to some of our family and friends and would certainly make a return visit in the future. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Yorkshire Dales which was partly due to the cottage and it's location.
