    Our only real issue was the shower in the bathroom, this was a very cold room and the shower very poor in water pressure. Overall we had a good few days only coming back to sleep as our son lives in Hebden bridge and we came to see him and the children.

    Absolutely loved our three night stay and a very friendly owner/host. Spotlessly clean and well equipped - for a self catering apartment. Missed out on the bottle of wine in the fridge and the entrance off the main road is a bad one pulling out, in terms of visibility (could do with a convex mirror on the gate opposite) but nothing that spoiled our stay.

    It was spacious, comfortable and very homely. The bed is super comfy and I slept better than I do in my own bed. Being close to the pub was perfect as I would go off for a walk then “accidentally” finish at the pub. As I had two dog there I cleaned up every day and tried to keep the place as tidy as I keep my own home. I didn’t use cooker, mircowave or dishwasher as I ate out most meals. I enjoyed staying here so much I looked to see if I book the following week as I had 2 weeks off work. Thank you to the hosts for the info about walks ect. Look forward to coming back.

    The setting is perfect, surrounded by open countryside and with walks from the door. The barn is beautifully decorated and immaculate. It is warm and cosy, with a really comfortable bed and sofas. The kitchen is fully equipped and off it there is an enclosed garden with table and chairs to sit out on a sunny day. We drove down to Luddendenfoot and walked along the canal to Hebdon Bridge, a really lovely walk. There are so many walks in the area, we will certainly be returning and would not hesitate to recommend Ash Tree Barn.

    The open plan living and sleeping area gave spectacular views over the green fields and the big windows let in plenty of light.. We had a dog with us and there was plenty of local walks near by, some a bit tough on the legs but really enjoyable. It had all the facilities you needed for our two week stay and was very peaceful. The owner's where always willing to help with anything you needed, but left you alone just to get on with your holiday , which was great.. There was a pub 2 minutes walk away, called the Crossroads - We had some good meals in there, the pies and fish & chips where simply gorgeous. If you wanted a more varied range , go into Sowerby Bridge and you will find loads of pubs and eateries. We found a new Indian restraunt called Rajpoot and the food was gorgeous. Overall your holiday is what you make it and Ash Tree Barn is a fantastic base with everything you need for a great holiday.

    However,the accommodation just wasn't for us. It was very basic and minimalist & generally failed to provide the wow factor. We found the bed to be very uncomfortable & found the open plan set up less than homely. It really just wasn't our kind of place. I do feel however that it's a lovely cosy place for a couple just not suitable to share with children (lack of privacy). maybe some privacy screens would help. It was a shame we didn't enjoy our stay but it wasn't the fault of the owners it was just personal taste.

  • "This accomodation is clean and comfortable however there are some aspects that future hirers should be aware of."

    Firstly the pictures in the listing, whilst accurate give the impression that the entrance is beneath the large windows wheras this is the opposite side and we initially were unsure we had found the right house. The drive to the property is full of deep potholes and could cause some damage to vehicles with low ground clearance, our 4x4 was perfect. There is little space in the property to hang clothes and no drawers to put personal things beyond a bedside cabinet. The most disappointing feature was the large window at the end of the property which in the photos looks out over the hills and the countryside, what is not clear is that there is a pavement and a busy road between the propery and the view so lying in bed with the curtains isn't really an option. So a nice propery but with disappointing aspects. ************************************************************* OWNER RESPONSE**************************** We are very sorry you were disappointed in some aspects of our property. We very rarely receive any negative feedback, as you will see from our other reviews. It is made clear in the description that we are a farm, and therefore the track leading to the house reflects this. You are the first to comment on storage space, and in response we have added more coat hangers to the hanging spaces. Our road leads into our small village and therefore the only traffic is local. Perhaps because it was bailing time, you are commenting on the tractors which are obviously crucial to our rural community. We are nevertheless pleased, despite your disappointments, you saw fit to still grade us as 'met expectations'. ***

The property

Set on a high promontory overlooking the wild and rugged countryside of Calderdale, this charming, upside-down wing of the owners stone-built farmhouse is situated in the tiny hamlet of Wainstalls one of the locations used in the TV series Happy Valley, just two miles from Luddenden.

This lovely, restored property offers wonderful views of the surrounding area and first-class holiday accommodation, ideal for getting away from it all and enjoying a romantic break.

It is part of a large, non-working farm and on the first floor, there is a spacious living area with a curved ceiling, modern Velux windows and a large picture window on the gable end to take advantage of the spectacular views across the valley.

With a 50" screen television with Netflix, it makes a luxurious sitting area, while the king size bed is positioned to take advantage of the fabulous views.

On the ground floor, there is a modern, well-equipped kitchen/diner, a first-class shower room and access to a small patio area, where you can enjoy a glass of wine in the evening sunshine.

You can also make use of the owners spacious grounds!

The local pub is just a two-minute walk away, renowned for its hospitality, good ale and excellent food, plus there are many inspiring walks across the beautiful moors that can be enjoyed from the doorstep.

Hebden Bridge, Haworth and the bustling town of Skipton are all within an easy drive and definitely worth exploring.

Look out for the Ted Hughes Festival that takes place in the town of Mytholmroyd, his birthplace, each year, or visit Shibden Hall, an exquisite, six hundred year-old timber manor house set within 37 hectares of the Shibden Valley!

This fabulous holiday home is ideal for a couple’s retreat, where you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy this historic corner of the Yorkshire Dales.

About the location

LUDDENDEN

Hebden Bridge 4 miles; Halifax 5 miles.

Luddenden is a conservation village in Calderdale, close to Hebden Bridge. The community is first mentioned in 1284, and in 1375 a corn mill was moved from Warley Town to exploit the Luddenden Brook. Nearby, the attractive town of Hebden Bridge is the home to the picturesque Rochdale Canal and a delightful Victorian railway station. The town of Mytholmroyd is an easy drive away, the birthplace of Poet Laureate Ted Hughes, and famous for the Cragg Vale Coiners. This is excellent walking country, with the National Trust Hardcastle Crags and the Pennine Way, plus the area hosted the Tour De France in 2014. Enjoy scenic drives and cycling across the moors, whilst nearby Haworth boasts the Parsonage Museum commemorating the famous Bronte family who lived there.
