“The drive up to the cottage is quite steep didn’t bother us but older people might struggle with it.”

Beautiful place and our hosts Katie and mark were great.

Mrs Thomis October 2020

“We have stayed at Bramble Cottage before and hope to visit again .”

Beautiful compact cottage in a fantastic area . Very dog friendly area and beautiful walks from the doorstep. The owners have thought of everything to make your stay very comfortable Warm and cosy cottage with a lovely bedroom and shower room . Parking is tight with a larger car but we found plenty of roadside parking just up from the cottage so wasn’t an issue for us . It is very hilly so probably not the best choice for elderly or infirm but that’s Holmfirth and the views are the reward

Mr Rimmer September 2020

“We had a great stay at Bramble cottage and would not hesitate to recommend this property and also return ourselves in the future the place was spotless throughout and had all household requirements it was a perfect base to visit many areas of the Peak District and we enjoyed many fantastic walks with the dogs.”

Many thanks Katie and Mark

Mrs Nicol September 2020

“Bramble cottage definitely exceeded our expectations.”

It was clean, cosy, and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The views from the cottage are very picturesque especially the sunsets. Holmfirth is beautiful but can get really busy andhere are a lot of walks very near by.

Ms Beverley July 2020

“The cottage was great.”

On Booking.com the property was advertised as accepting a pet. The confirmation we received from Sykes had "Pet: no". When we tried to clarify this with Sykes we couldn't get through and they didn't reply to our e-mails. As it was necessary to be allowed to take out pet it was important we received a reply in order to make alternative arrangements if no pet was allowed. Eventually Booking.com intervened on our behalf but we were very disappointed with Sykes.

“Beautiful cottage, comfortable, spotlessly clean and very well appointed.”

Elevated position with great views (weather permitting!) Wet cobbles can be tricky but all adds to the charm. Short but pleasant stay, managed to get in a couple of nice walks in, would recommend.

“Had a gorgeous weekend in a beautiful cottage and a perfect location!”

Mr Pattison Mbe October 2019

“We have stayed at many Sykes Cottages,but without doubt this has to be at the top of the list Mark and Katie made us feel at home from the start and nothing was problem to them,when help was required.”

Comfortable and cosey with everything you could ask for except a bath which would have been nice after doing some of the quite strenuous walks in the area but the shower was fine .Unlike the last property on Bute the views were stunning and the local area really interesting.Some people had mentioned difficulty in parking but after driving Mountain Rescue vehicles around the Lake DIistrict for over 40 years we soon got the hang of it.An exceptional property and one we would recommend to anyone although people with a disability may find access a little difficult ,a steep hill and cobbles to cope with.Thankyou Mark and Katie.

Immaculately clean & comfortable property in excellent condition equipt with everything you would need for a holiday Brilliant views 10 minute walk into Holmfirth best done by main road not so steep to walk back up Neighbours friendly Bit tight parking for a large car outside the property although there is alternative area at top of lane Would recommend

Mr Hillery July 2019

“Bramble cottage is a lovely little cottage in a beautiful spot, with great views.”

It has everything you need to make a home from home, the furnishings are comfortable and very clean and the setting beautiful. The lovely setting on a hillside is great, but wont be for everyone, with very steep walks to anywhere, and very narrow steep roads, which take some getting used too, the cottage has a parking space,but its a bit awkward as is all driving around there.

- Mr Hillery, July 2019
Mrs Heard May 2019

“Bramble Cottage was perfect!”

Spotlessly clean, in a great location and had everything we needed for a comfortable and peaceful break.

The house was more than perfect had everything we needed the couple who owns it could not do enough to help we could not fault it at all

Mrs Thomis March 2019

“Beautiful little cottage in a lovely location with spectacular views.”

Spotlessly clean very comfortable and just as it looked on photos. The owners live next door and we’re friendly but unobtrusive. Parking is on the owners drive which could be an issue for larger vehicles but there are alternatives within walking distance . Very steep hills but worth it for the views . Holmfirth is a very friendly town with good selection of shops/pubs and eateries Dog friendly and excellent walking area

Mrs Flett February 2019

“Bramble Cottage was a perfect break away.”

Katie and Mark provided everything needed. Thank you!

Weatherley January 2019

“What a lovely week enjoyed at Bramble Cottage.”

It was just as good as the glowing reviews suggest; cosy, charming and spotlessly clean. There is everything provided that you could need, yet everything so neat and well-ordered. The location is great, with wonderful views over the valley, and an easy walk to and from town. Just a few minutes up the hill and there are stunning views to enjoy, and several nearby villages with walks (and pubs!) to enjoy. Communication with the owners was easy, professional and very friendly. Highly recommended!

“Beautiful cottage.”

Perfect cosy romantic get away. The roads up to the cottage are very steep and bumpy so took a bit of getting use to but would happily holiday at Bramble Cottage again.

- Mrs Ross, September 2018
Ms Sutcliffe September 2018

“The cottage was beautiful with fantastic views over the Holmfirth countryside.”

Mrs Thomas July 2018

“Bramble Cottage should have a five star listing.”

. It is perfect for a couple on holiday with their dog. so many cottages of this standard do not invite our four legged friends. Bramble Cottage was very clean and comfortable and restored by the owners to a very high standard but retained some lovely original features, we were made to feel very welcome. Parking was scary but you do really get used t it.! Thanks to Mark and Katie for a very enjoyable week.

- Mrs Thomas, July 2018
Miss Fletcher July 2018

Mr Horton May 2018

“The cottage was brilliant and spotless.”

The owner made us very welcome. Bramble Cottage is in a great location with fantastic views over the valley. Just a short walk into holmfirth to enjoy the bar's, restaurants and cafes. If we return to holmfirth we would definitely choose Bramble Cottage. Our dog Alfie also gave it a paws up.

- Mr Horton, May 2018
Mr Keen May 2018

“We have just spent 1 week staying at Bramble Cottage, Holmfirth.”

The cottage has been refurbished to an exceptionally high standard, and a great deal of thought has been put into the cottage by the owners, there is everything you need and more, and it would be hard to find a better cottage to stay in, in the U.K. The views from the cottage are stunning across the valley and rolling hills. This is the perfect place to stay as a base, and day trips to The Derbyshire Peaks, Haworth, Scarborough, York, Lancashire and the many reservoir walks close by are all very "do able" for a day out. Taking a four legged friend with you? no problem, they are welcomed. Sykes are a great company too, you can book online or by phone as we did, very welcoming, helpful and within a few minutes all was booked, 1st class customer service to them. Having recently retired we look forward to many more "Cottage experiences" with Sykes. We are sure that you will enjoy Bramble Cottage and Sykes as much as we have. Many thanks to you all. Jeremy and Carole.

About the location

HOLMFIRTH

Peak District National Park 3 miles; Meltham 4 miles

The old traditional Pennine town of Holmfirth is situated in the heart of the beautiful Holme Valley, on the edge of the West Yorkshire Pennines. Made famous by The Last of The Summer Wine TV series, there is more to Holmfirth than Compo and Nora Battye’s stockings! The ‘Picturedrome’, the North of England’s finest live music venue attracts many famous bands and is located right in the centre of the town. The pelotons from the Tour de France 2014 and the Tour de Yorkshire have both been through this quaint Holme Valley town en route to the iconic 524 metre Holme Moss climb two miles away. It is in these hills where cycling’s triple Olympic Medalist Ed Clancy grew up. Holmfirth also has a good public swimming pool and fitness centre, parks and some super shops and restaurants. The people here are friendly, the streets are quaint and the scenery is breathtaking. The Peak District National Park with its moors, dales, forests, lakes and reservoirs is also easily accessible. The Upper Derwent Valley, home to the spectacular Ladybower and Derwent reservoirs, and where the famous 617 ‘Dambusters’ Squadron practiced the audacious bombing raid on the Ruhr valley in 1943, is only a short scenic drive away. Slightly further is Chatsworth, the stately home of the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, and situated close to the market town of Bakewell, the home of Bakewell Puddings. The Yorkshire Sculpture Park, The National Coal Mining Museum, Wentworth Castle, and the Hepworth Gallery are also within short drives away and well worth a visit. For a spot of culture, Holmfirth has annual festivals with many more attractions that bring visitors back for more; such as the Folk, Arts, and Food & Drink Festivals. Also not to be missed, is Holmfirth Vineyard and Restaurant, where you can book wine tasting tours and enjoy a lovely meal in the restaurant.
