  • "The cottage was maintained to a high standard and fixtures and fittings well thought out, and the welcome pack was excellent and well thought out."

    Very comfortable with lovely view's. Parking was off road and a good size, directions to the cottage were spot on. We are on the large side and the on-suite was difficult to use, but again kitted out to a high standard.

    Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. It sounds like you had a wonderful stay at our cottage! I'm glad to hear that you found the cottage to be at a high standard. I'm also happy to hear that our welcome pack was excellent and was well appreciated during your stay. It's great to know that the off-road parking was a good size and that the directions to the cottage were spot on.The views must have been lovely, too! Although I can understand that the on-suite may have been not what you are used too. As it is a 1800’s cottage and we have tried to make it as quirky as possible. It was well-loved by all of our previous guests. There is also an additional good size bathroom which I hope was a great benefit to your stay. We deeply care about all of our guests and put in 100% effort into making sure they have the best holiday. We hope to see you again in our cottage in the future. Property Owner

  • "This cottage was so cosy and beautiful."

    Everything we needed was there clearly labelled. There were some lovely touches with décor from local shops tagged that we later explored. A touch of Easter decorations made it very seasonal. The beds, blankets and fireplace made for a extremely comfortable stay. A thoroughly equipped kitchen. This would be perfect for other seasonal breaks. The area surrounding is lovely and we found lots to do with our 6 year olds. We can't wait to return and do some more walks with them as they grow. Lots of local small businesses and different food places in town. The owner was so helpful when we needed to ring for a small issue, that was sorted very smoothly.

    Thank you for your lovely feed back. Glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your return visits in the future Best Wishes Janice & David Property Owner

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 Batty’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.
