“The property is in a good location, remote but within 5 minutes walking distance of a friendly pub (note: due to Covid-19, opening hours were restricted).”

Also lots of good pubs, restaurants and shopping facilities within easy reach. The owner was extremely helpful and accessible. The Hot Tub was a real plus!

“Vicky & Peggy were very welcoming under extremely difficult circumstances!”

The cottage is beautiful. Surrounding area breathtaking. The hot tub was lovely after a day of walking! Good facilities and most importantly to us, a very comfortable bed!! We would highly recommend the cottage to others!

“Perfect weekend”

Absolutely lovely holiday cottage. stayed here for a long weekend and the only thing We would change is to stay longer! It was clean and had everything you could need. There was no Wi-Fi which was so refreshing to switch off from the rest of the world! The hot tub was amazing with stunning views. Would definitely recommend a stay here!

“Fabulous location with wonderful hot tub”

Stayed for 7 nights over Christmas 2015. We chose the cottage due to it's location (near Hebden Bridge), pub within walking distance (The New Delight), a hot tub and a woodburner and it didn't disappoint on any. There is a lovely walk in to Hebden via Heptonstall and the bus back costs £2.50 for a day ticket. The cottage is well equipped and very comfortable and the owners are very friendly.

“Believe the reviews”

Booked a three night stay at this place as a birthday treat to myself some months in advance so as to avoid disappointment and am very glad I did too. I did my research on various properties beforehand and due to the fact that there was not a single negative review of this property made my decision that much simpler to make. On arrival I was greeted with a plate with two delicious homemade shortbread biscuits and a hand written note welcoming me to the place. The specifications of the property and it's contents is very high,from the furnishings to the kitchen and the very welcome outdoor hot tub. My only negatives are that they hot tub could do with a a roof to keep the rain off and screening as it is visible from the road in front of the cottage, actually it would be better located on the opposite side of the property. There is no internet at the cottage so if connectivity is important to you, then I suggest you look elsewhere, also mobile phone reception is poor, I found this all to be a plus as it felt more like a real break away from the everyday routine. Three minutes walk down the lane is a superb little pub called the New Delight Inn, it serves excellent real ales and the bar staff are very friendly and helpful, this is Ben the owners first year as a landlord and I would say he is doing a fantastic job. A ten minute drive is the wonderful town of Hebden Bridge, it is here that I would suggest is the best breakfast in Yorkshire, look out for the Organic House Cafe, delicious! So all in all I would declare my birthday treat to be a complete success.

“Perfect, relaxing hideaway for two”

My husband and I have just spent a wonderfully relaxing week at Pack Horse Stables. A very peaceful location with direct access to a range of country walks if you are keen to see a bit more of the countryside. We were happy to take it easy but did walk into Hebden Bridge which is an easy, if slightly uneven in places, walk even for a couch potato like me. The hot tub is fantastic and very private no worries about scaring the neighbours. Brilliant for star gazing while sipping champagne, then a dash back inside to the wood burning stove. Easy trips to York and Harrogate and Hebden Bridge is a lovely market town with lots of cafes and individual shops to while away the hours. Great location, fabulous cottage and lovely host :-)

“Fantastic Little Cottage”

We wanted a nice romantic trip away and the cottage is just perfect for couples. The cottage is lovely inside with everything you would need for a few days away from it all. The hot tub was fab even on a chilly windy day. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Hebden Bridge is close by and has some lovely shops and places to eat. We even treated ourselves to a massage at the Banyan Tree which was just lovely and relaxing. Would love to see the cottage in the summer time as I bet the garden looks amazing.

“Lovely cottage in the countryside”

My partner and I visited here in march when we had the heavy snow and we loved every minute of it! It felt surreal being in a hot tub surrounded by a layer of thick snow, incredibly romantic! The cottage was lovely and clean, the underfloor heating was a bonus and all we needed after long walks in the snow to warm us up again, the bed was massive and so comfortable! The cakes on arrival were a lovely touch and so was the complementary wood for the log burner! Overall a fantastic cottage, we can't wait to come back and experience it in the sunshine instead!

“A fantastic, cosy weekend!”

An excellent little place - the owners have thought of everything to make it very welcoming. It was thick with snow while we were there, very surreal relaxing in the hot tub, looking out at the snow all around.

“Excellent!!”

We have just returned from Packhorse Stables and we are already looking to book again very soon.. It is a very well maintained Converted Stable and is well equipted with all modern appliances. The walks are very nice from here and the buses are regular as clock work if you fancy going exploring. We stayed 3 nights and had a very relaxing stay, we arrived to lots of snow and ice and there is nothing better than sitting in the hot tub and the scenery like a Christmas card! The log burner heats the whole building but if you don't fancy lighting it then just put on the under floor heating and it is very warm in no time. The owners are very welcoming and even provided some lovely cake for when we arrived (Thanks Peggy and Vicky). Anyone who has booked this will not be unhappy with your choice and I can guarantee you a great time here.

Pack Horse Stables was a delight to stay in with every comfort and lovely welcoming touches. Well stocked, the cottage also boasts a fabulous wet room and a hot tub on the patio. Fantastic walks from the front door in every direction and with lovely Hebden Bridge an easy walk and even easier bus ride away.
