Boshaw Cottage

We had a lovely 5 days here, the beds were really comfortable & we loved the house & the beautiful views would definitely come back here, hairdryer & straighteners to use stored in the wardrobe in one of the bedrooms.

Lovely cottage with far reaching views.

Good meal at pub close by and well stocked farm shop a short walk. Would recommend a visit to Carding Shop for vintage cars and bikes also interesting F1 memorabilia plus coffee and cake. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay

Excellent property, and extremely friendly owners.

Will be going back I'm sure.

Had a wonderful stay in the cottage , was very comfortable and clean , situated in a great location veiws were amazing ,best place we’ve been to for a long while .

Bev Pete , and Rocco .

Cottage was perfect and owner very helpful.

Sykes were a nightmare to get hold of. Still waiting for a call back from a month ago, good job we got hold of the owner

The cottage was perfect, it had been well and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed, including dog treats and pop bags!

Milk in the fridge, and generally fabulous. It's a beautiful location and the pub was great just at the top of the road. We did try to get hold of Sykes for some help with our booking, but found they were practically impossible to get hold of (the only way is through the app, but it wasn't recognising our booking and it took them days to get back to me on Whatsapp). I managed to get in touch with the owner though, who sorted everything out for us and was brilliant.

Beautiful cottage with stunning views.

Comfortable, warm and well equipped. Spacious rooms and well decorated. Great area to enjoy the Holme valley. Directions were good and cottage was easy to find. Highly recommend.

Lived up to all expectations, enjoyed our stay (the road diversions made finding our way around a bit more difficult, but couldn't be helped) The only other thing was we found the tap water didn't make a good brew, and so we fell back on bottled water.

But these things were minor, and we still very much enjoyed our stay, Thank You.

Boshaw Cottage was really lovely, spacious, quiet, well equipped, warm, comfortable and in a lovely spot with views over the countryside.

We were even abe to sit outside in the sun. Only 2 mins walk to a great pub and 5mins to an amazing farm shop and 20mins walk to the Carding Shed cafe and museum . It was also walking distance to Holmfirth (30mins), with also lots of lovely walks from the doorstep. The hosts were also kind and helpful. Thank you so much!

February marked our second visit to this cosy little cottage and we had a lovely relaxing time!

The cottage is so peaceful and quiet, and extremely comfortable. It didn't matter that the weather was so rainy because it just gave us an excuse to hibernate! Everything you could need is there - a well-stocked kitchen, puzzlebooks, and TV with lots of streaming options. The log fire burner was a real luxury and we loved napping by the hearth. A real bonus having such a fab pub minutes down the path too! Will definitely be booking again for later this year for a third trip!

Lovely little cottage.

I thought about 4 stars in a couple of places and decided it would be unfair. The cottage is very nicely furnished and has lots of amenities. Holmfirth is nearby and has lots to offer in terms of shops and restaurants. Owner's communication was great. A couple of things to note with the 5* The surface of the track leading to the cottage is atrocious. I'd hit a pothole and replaced a tyre the day before, so I'm trying not to be biased. There are enormous potholes full of water. At the very least you'll need to wash your car. The owners have made excellent use of the space, but it's a little bit quirky in places. The steep staircase and sloping floor upstairs made me file like I was on a boat.

Ideal location for beautiful walks without needing to take the car and the local pub serving generous portions, is literally 2 minutes walk and situated at the end of the lane.

The property is just as described in the listing with 2 comfortable double beds and very warm and cosy. Clean, well decorated and furnished and good range of crockery, cutlery and glassware. The Christmas tree was a lovely touch to continue the festivities in seeing the new year in. Couldn't fault it. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Excellent second stay, comfortable, clean and well maintained accommodation.

Everything in the cottage that we could have wanted.

Fabulous cottage, very cosy and clean.

Lots of walks from the cottage door. I only managed one as the weather want the best. Great location with a pub 2 minutes walk away if needed. Would highly recommend Boshaw Cottage.

Really clean,well kept cottage, very comfortable, well equipped.

Thoughtful welcome of milk/ biscuits. Laminated maps for local walks very handy, and a great pub at the end of the lane.

This cottage is just amazing.

It was booked last minute. And the communication from jenny the owner was superb.the cottage is in a beautiful setting and perfectly located for walking. Hiking or going into Holmfirth. The cottage itself was so spotless and had everything you needed and more. Dogs were also made to feel welcome with beds and treats for them as well as extras for us on arrival which was very much appreciated. Will definitely stay here again You have the boshaw trout doing nice meals also lovely staff n dog friendly. And the choice of two superb butchers in walking distance where you can get a good breakfast to. This cottage definitely gets 5***** Yvonne n Steve. N Teisha the dog.

We loved Boshaw Cottage.

So cosy and comfortable, really well equipped with everything we needed. We noticed, and appreciated, the Raindrop soap and Who gives A Crap toilet paper. We had the most relaxing stay; looking out the windows on the gorgeous view, walking to an excellent pub at the end of the lane for Sunday Lunch… I could go on! Needless to say, we would definitely return!

Our third stay and definitely won't be our last.

Beautiful setting, great accomodation, everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Quiet, peaceful surroundings, short walk to the pub (I have mobility issues and I could manage it). The cottage is clean, welcoming and perfect for us ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The cottage was absolutely brilliant.

It was a real home from home. Everything had been thought of. A lovely quiet location with an idyllic outlook. Thoroughly recommend this location for anyone wanting a tranquil gateway.

We had a lovely stay in your cottage, the living area was more spacious than other cottages that we have stayed in and the kitchen and bathroom were nice and big and modern.

The location was perfect. We had everything we needed, except just a small comment :- we wanted to sit outside in the garden after our walk as the weather was so good. Since there were 4 of us, a couple of extra garden chairs would have been nice. Just fold up camping chairs would have been fine, we thought there might have been some in the cupboard where the cushions were. However, this did not have a bearing on the enjoyment of our weekend and we would definitely like to return.

Excellent, peaceful location, lovely views, friendly neighbours good walks and a nice clean property

Really enjoyed our stay at Boshaw Cottage, we had a few issues which were quickly sorted out and we were very happy during our week long stay in Yorkshire.

Very picturesque surroundings and getting around was very easy. The cottage was very clean and tidy and we will probably look to book again in the future

The cottage felt welcoming when we arrived - clean and cosy, a good supply of towels and kitchen essentials, and even bowls and treats for our dog.

It was nice to find the pack of laminated local walks which we used. In fact we didn't use the car at all during our stay, just walked from the cottage. All in all a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Thank you.

We really enjoyed our stay.

The cottage is very clean and tidy.The kitchen is very good with all you need for a short break. But the best thing are the views and how quiet it is,save for the sheep and the odd cat,lovely. We would highly recommend the cottage to anyone who wants a peaceful and comfortable stay.

We had a very relaxing break in this delightful cottage.

Everything you needed for a comfortable stay and spotlessly clean. In an excellent location.

We thought the cottage was great every think you needed in it a great location just up from a pub great walking areas would be happy to recommend it to our friends and family

On the whole my wife and I were impressed with Boshaw Cottage, however one thing that did concern me is there is only one fire escape route.

I am surprised this was not addressed when the fire risk assessment was made. I realise there is little space at the rear of the property but an outside door should have been installed in the kitchen rather than a non opening window. The possibility of being trapped upstairs or in the kitchen if fire broke out in the lounge is a real danger. Please understand it would be irresponsible of me to ignore what I believe to be a situation that needs rectifying. I could not reach the owner on the number supplied (something that needs looking into) which is unfortunate because there are a couple of maintenance issues that also need attention

A cosy, well equipped cottage.

Great location for many lovely walks. I would definitely return to that cottage. The

This is the best Sykes cottage we have ever stayed in!

Will definitely recommend to family & friends.

Really nice cottage, had a nice few days break

Second visit, just as fab as the first.

Beautiful location, the cottage has everything we needed for a relaxing and comfortable stay. The extra touches, like treats for the dogs, cookies for humans, all much appreciated. The cottage is immaculately presented and the owner is easy to contact. We'll be back!

Lovely comfortable cottage not far from the local pub that does food and is dog friendly.

Holmfirth a 35 minute nice walk down a very steep hill advice get a local taxi back £6.00. Also nice eating places in Holmfirth.

A lovely cottage with everything you need, comfy beds, clean, a great pub just around the corner and some nice walks not too far away.

Great contact with owners and they were happy to help when needed. I would definitely recommend it and I hope we can come back again soon !!

What a fabulous, not so little, cottage!

We spent a month here, waiting for our house purchase to go through. It's in an idyllic location with lots of lovely walks on the doorstep. Jenny and her family were fabulous hosts. The cottage had everything we could possibly think of, making us totally self-sufficient. The beds were really comfortable and the cottage was always warm, even when it snowed. The log burning fire was a lovely addition, very cosy on a winter's day/evening. We would definitely recommend this cottage for long, or short, stays!

We loved our stay at Boshaw.

Such a lovely, cosy little cottage in a nice location. Plenty of walks/runs in the area and very close to Holmfirth. We had an amazing new years stay and will definitely return!

We stayed at Boshaw Cottage during the Christmas period and it was perfect.

The cottage was cosy, well furnished and was everything we needed for a restful festive retreat. It was immaculately clean, well decorated and the welcome pack was a lovely touch after our long journey. The beds were comfortable, warm and welcoming. The bathroom with both a shower and a roll top bath (special touch) were welcome after some cold walks. The fire warmed the whole house up quickly and was a beautiful feature of the living room. It is beautifully located at the top of the hill in Hade Edge looking over the village and reservoir. There was plenty of walks from the doorstep and maps provided. The Bowshaw trout is the local pub (only 192 steps - yes we counted) which offers delicious pub grub, stunning views and local ale. Thank you Jenny, for excellent communication and helping us promptly. It was the most wonderful cottage, highly recommend staying here. Just a note, the directions could be updated to say Bowshaw Trout as a different pub name is given. Thank you again.

Very comfortable and well maintained.

We would love to return.

We really enjoyed our stay at Boshaw cottage.

Despite it being very cold outside it was cozy and warm inside. The cottage is well equiped , clean and has gorgeous views. Great pub with friendly staff and great food only 2 minutes walk from the cottage. Farm shops 5 mins walk away. Walking paths straight from the cottage. It took us just under an hour to stroll to Holmfirth. Jenny was on hand if we needed her. We hope to come back.

Absolutely fabulous cottage with lovely, attentive hosts.

Very much hope we'll be back at some point

Fridge door needs to be fixed so you can stand things in the door

The property was lovely & cosy.

The views were amazing. Good location for getting out & about sightseeing. Local pub was great too. Would highly recommend

Our stay at this cottage was lovely and that is thanks to Jenny.

We found the cottage immaculately clean and well maintained on arrival and well equipped with everything that a family could need whilst self catering. The kitchen is well equipped with everything in excellent working order and the bedding and towels were lovely, new and fresh smelling. The free standing bath is absolutely lovely for a long soak and it was nice to have the separate shower as well. Beds and chairs were reasonably comfortable and it was nice to see good quality mattress and pillow protectors had been provided. The cottage is very peaceful and ideal for a relaxing break and well situated for dog walks. We really appreciated the shortbread and milk on arrival as well as dog treat biscuits and even dog bags and a dog bed. We can highly recommend the local farm shop to get delicious sausages, pasties and pies and other treats! We visited Holmefirth and Castleton so this is a good base for both Yorkshire and Derbyshire. We hope to visit again soon!

A lovely modern and super clean cottage with everything needed for a comfortable short break.

Just as pictured, although no reference to the corner stairs at top of staircase and a small ramp across middle of landing floor. My 77 yr old Mum with a bad knee and not used to stairs, struggled to navigate up and down freely. Might have reconsidered if had known. Also put back lamp on landing for night time trips to bathroom as the ramp is tight between both bedrooms and bathroom. Nevertheless, the cottage has everything except a dishwasher. Very limited phone signal, no WiFi but managed a signal at top of staircase only. Superb location, shouting distance to a super friendly and busy pub. Great area for walkers, or country drives. Super close to Holmfirth and its vineyard with great views. Also visited winscar resorvior short drive away. Property and its location ticks all the boxes

We had a lovely stay at the cottage.

We all loved the view and how much it changed with the weather. The pub at the bottom of the road was lovely, our dog loved it. She was provided with treats, water and even a bed to sit in. We visits the town and has a lovely relaxing time. The Cottage beds were really comfortable as was the sofa and one of the chairs. We all found the chair by the window a bit uncomfortable. That and the stairs being tight. But really what can you expect for a cottage of this age. As for the stairs, our old blind dog managed to manoeuvre them with in a couple of days. Top marks all round from us. Would gladly stay again.

Really enjoyed our stay here, the front room was cozy and warm .

The flowers were a lovely touch. The hoover needs possibly upgrading. Wish I had gone on more walks , the maps in drawer really helpful . But the weather was not totally on our side

Lovely well equipped cottage.

Great check in instructions, fabulous location.

Fabulous cottage with great facilities and such amazing views can’t wait to book again

We stayed in a lot of places in the uk, Boshaw cottage was THE very best one.

Everything about the place is juste absolutly perfect. The accommodation, the surrounding, the équipement, the horses and the sheep… my 11 years old just didn’t want to leave the place and neither did I. It was truly a wonderful experience and we are looking for coming back this summer to enjoy the place under the sun ( we stayed there in February and it’s my first time in the uk where the place is warm all day long!) As you can guess we absolutely loved the place!

Lovely cosy cottage

Great cottage fantastic views We had a good bit of snow Had evening meal at the pub 5 mins walk awa.

Great Neal. Went down into Holmfirth and visited Sid’s cafe last of summer wine cafe. All in all a great few days away. Will definitely be returning

A wonderful cosy cottage in a great location to explore the area.

Lovely cosy cottage.

Literally a shelter from the storm! Warm and well equipped

Views amazing.

Local pub the bowshaw trout good. Local people friendly and helpful. The cottage was warm and welcoming when we arrived and clean. Well equipped, seating comfortable, I found the bed a bit hard but it wouldn't stop me from visiting again. The weather was vey kind and there is a lot to see in a small area. More to see and do next time.

A great place to stay.

Very warm and comfortable with fabulous views and any number of walks from the door. Lots of character and atmosphere. Our third visit and just as good as ever. Can't recommend too highly_wonderful ! Many thanks, Geoff and Rowena Stead.

The views from the cottage were just beautiful and wonderful to look at when you were in cottage.

The cottage was comfortable to stop in with the nice feel of the log burner at night, we only used this one night to cook some toast as we love toast done on a log burner, we were disgusted with the state of the cottage as most of the cottage looked as though it hadn’t been cleaned in a while, you walk around the lounge or kitchen and you’d either get black feet or black socks disgusting to say they were mopped when we turned up to start our holiday the owner/cleaner was still there so we were late going in and that wasn’t a good start to the holiday, on the tv screen there’s about 2 inches of dust you can’t hardly see the picture of the tv through disgusting, spider webs everywhere, the log fire had been used by the previous people and not been cleaned out, outside the property by the grass is a deep hole and my small dog went down it head first a few times then we had to block it off as one of the times my dog went down head first in the hole she’d cut her neck open so my husband had to put some logs in the hole while I stopped the bleeding of my dogs neck we took her to vets to get her checked out and they gave her antibiotics just in case of infection, me, my husband and our dog Lucky won’t be going back there again only good thing was the views you had.

First class accommodation in picturesque environment and communication with property management excellent.

High standard of maintenance, facilities and cleanliness. Highly recommended to any future guests

Beautiful cottage and location.

Fantastic host!

Beautiful accomodation.

Thank you very much for everything!

This well equipped cottage is well placed for exploring the area.

It is beautifully decorated to a high standard of comfort and cleanliness.

We already knew this part of Yorkshire well as we used to live in the Holme Valley and planned our week visiting family and friends.

Boshaw was a clean, cosy cottage, it had parking - which is a problem in the Holmfirth area - and had easy access to some great dog walks. Would highly recommend this lovely cottage and hope to be back.

The holiday cottage was so cosy and the beds were so comfy.

We had a fabulous time and will definitely be visiting again.

Perfect for a quiet week away.

Surrounded by country walks but the town is not too far away.

A return visit to the cosy Boshaw cottage during a bitterly cold week.

With minus temperatures outside, it was lovely to have the indoor fireplace (though it was quite hard work to keep the fire going, even for experienced ppl). The Christmas tree and the lovely lights were a welcome addition in mid-Dec. What makes this cottage exceptional is that it's super clean, has a very cosy living room, has lovely views and is very well-located. Plus a fantastic hot shower and a fantastic bathtub.The excellent WiFi means that I happily relied on it for work purposes (including conducting an interview). In an ideal world, there'd be a dishwasher instead of a washing machine, a chest of drawers in the right bedroom, some medium-sized bowls, and a bathroom bin with a lid. Very minor quibbles as we have already spoken about booking again, so overall, we still love the place. The kitchen does have a separate freezer by the way (current listing does not have this). My packing tips would be slippers as the kitchen floor is cold and any washing powder/pods if you want to use the washing machine. Finally, Longley Farm is just down the road so I do recommend doing an online Click & Collect order for before you come!

It was November in Yorkshire, so cold and wet; but the cottage was warm, welcoming and spotless!

Everything was as you would hope for and we felt very much at home immediately. Our grandsons stayed with us and quickly found the stash of toys, which were in really good condition. Grandad was delighted with the TV and internet connection. The kitchen is well equipped and we all appreciated the tea, coffee, milk, biscuits and chocolates. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Lovely cottage with just the best views and a welcome pack which was very much appreciated.

Lots of places to walk our dog locally and many many places are dog friendly. The butchers in the village are so convenient, both very different but each have superb products. The local pub The Boshaw Trout has great food and even supplied dog biscuits and bowls of water! Really enjoyed our stay and would love to return.

Lovely stay, great cottage, very comfortable indeed.

Thank you.

Very well prepared, clean and fresh.

This is a lovely holiday cottage

Lovely stay with my husband and parents.

Comfortable and thoughtfully decorated cottage, had everything we needed. Beautiful views from the windows, loved sitting in the lounge looking at the hills. Welcome milk and treats were appreciated after a long journey. Great shower, mini toiletories even provided in the bathroom. In a good location, 7 mins drive from the centre of Holmfirth. We had a lovely Sunday roast at the Bowshaw trout at the end of the road, Totties garden centre 5 mins drive also do a great bacon roll with stunning views. Also enjoyed a fishy feast at Catch and a tasty mexican from Mexicali in Holmfirth. Yorkshire sculpture park is 25 minutes drive away and well worth a visit. We would like to come back.

We had the best time away, ever.

It was really nice and good, everything you needed, place to stay. The owners were very welcoming and very nice people. Even received a few welcoming gifts, I would definitely recommend anyone to visit, you will not regret it. I know we will be visiting again.

This is such a lovely property.

Perfect for our little family to stay in whilst visiting relatives in the area. The owner was beyond helpful, nothing was too much trouble. When travelling with a young family, any help is gratefully received. The property was extremely clean, all towels and bedlinen were soft and cosy and it was very well equipped. We would not hesitate to book the property again from future stays.

Bowshaw Cottage was a Great find , offering home from home Cosy comfort in a stunning part of Yorkshire .

Will definitely be booking again in the future .

Fantastic Cottage.

Warm and cosy with lovely views and walks from the door. Will stay again for sure.

Such a comfortable, clean well furnished cottage.

Was ideal for our family (2 adults and 2 primary age children), but would suit 2 couples also.

We had a lovely time at Boshaw Cottage and was extremely lucky to have good weather.

The cottage was cleaned to a very good standard and had stunning views. If you want to eat in the kitchen is well equipped to cook, On this holiday we ate out at the Boshaw Trout, a minutes walk away but our favourite is the Fox House a short drive away. Several maps provided for walks from the doorstep and also walked round Langsett Reservoir. Also walked alongside the canal to Stanedge Tunnel. This cottage is a credit to Jenny and we wouldn’t hesitate to book again if in the area.

Beautiful cosy cottage.

Fixtures and fittings are of a very high standard and the place was absolutely spotless. The owners have have pretty much thought of everything you need for a comfortable stay including some lovely treats on arrival! Highly recommended.

Whilst the cottage was comfortable and very clean and a great base for walking holidays, as a dog owner I couldn't recommend as a suitable property for dogs to stay.

It should be made clearer in description that there is no enclosed space - small front garden is shared and it's unsuitable to be used as a facility for dogs as the space is also used by small children. Dog owners also need to be aware that dogs have to be on lead at all times in surrounding lanes due to proximity of sheep/livestock.

what a clean well equipped & cosy cottage ideal for walkers

The cottage is lovely and booking it was so Easy as I had to rearrange last minute.

The staff I spoke to where very helpful and friendly and had no issues.only down side we had was good British weather

The cottage was everything we hoped for clean, well set up and had excellent views.

Just perfect.

!

We stayed in Boshaw Cottage for a week in early June and found it to be an ideal location for a walking week with many walks from the door and some wonderful walks by the Ladybower Reservoir only 30 minutes drive away and Dovestones Reservoirs - 20 minutes drive.

The cottage, despite being one of a terrace was extremely quiet with super views across the fields. The cottage was very clean, comfortable and had everything that we required. We would certainly stay at Boshaw Cottage if we were in the area in the future.

This was definitely a home from home holiday.

it was spotlessly clean and very very comfortable.the view was perfection. Would certainly like to go back..

Spotlessly clean cottage in a lovely location.

Numerous walks from the door. Would definitely go there again.

Everything, from the location to the fresh eggs left for us.

It was impossible to fault the cottage and our holiday, the cleanliness of the accommodation was fantastic. Thank you very much! We will be staying again soon. We missed having a 'proper' double bed, apart from that it was 10/10.

Lovely cottage and views were amazing.

Plenty of walks from the cottage we visited Holmfirth and went on the tour bus even if you didn’t know Last of the Summer Wine the tour took you round little villages and lanes you wouldn’t go with your car. Also Castle Hill was another place to visit seeing the valley below.

Excellent well equipped cottage in a beautiful and very peaceful location

Boshaw Cottage is well located and equipped.

An ideal base to explore the area, with many good walks near by. The house was exceptionally clean, and the owner responded quickly to queries. We will book again.

The cottage was booked for my family members and they were really delighted.

They wanted for nothing. The views,the walks and the proximity to a pub and super farm shop were a bonus. I have to add that the photos didn’t really do the cottage justice. It is much bigger than appears, but that was a nice surprise. Even in these difficult times the holiday was a huge success and I am sure that we will be booking the cottage again

The cottage was immaculate, in a great location for countryside walks, and close by towns with good shops and restaurants.

There was everything you need in the cottage, and it was decorated in a lovely cosy way, which means we were completely comfortable the whole time. Views from the cottage are incredible and even the neighbours are friendly and really helpful.

we had a very enjoyable time at cottage, excellent location for pets and walks.

We would again like to come back to this lovely cottage in future.

This is a lovely cottage with gorgeous views.

It is close to many lovely locations and walks so great for a holiday

Good location, very panoramic views.

Very comfortable excellentlyfitted out cottage. Lots of local walks and interesting things to do locally.

The cottage was very well appointed with everything we needed for a very enjoyable break.

Great views and walks thank you very much hopefully we will see you again soon.

Very comfortable cottage, good size lounge area, good sized bedrooms and a great bathroom.

The cottage was great in every way; clean, comfortable, quiet, fabulous views, excellent walking from the door, good car parking, what more can one say ?

I don't seem to be able to reply to the above choices, but I would definitely answer 10, and met expectations as my comments. Many thanks, Geoff Stead

I booked this cottage with the understanding there was a pub within walking distance so I was very disappointed to be told 5 days before arriving that the pub was closed and being renovated, even more disappointed when I looked into this and found the pub had been closed since Christmas, which was prior to me booking the cottage.

This listing needs updated by the owner as this is still being advertised with the pub being open which is clearly not the case. Also the photo of the garden is misleading as this is a shared garden with 2 other cottages, and another garden in front of it through a gate but this is for private use only and the main photo you show, looks like you can have access to this which you can’t.

Lovely cottage, thoroughly enjoyed our holiday there.

Great walks and superb scenery. Will be even better when the new build pub is finished at the end of the road.

The cottage is part of a working farm and at some time would have been for a farm workers.

Inside it was really cosy and warm with all the facilities which was just what we needed as the weather over the first two days was atrocious snow rain hail and strong winds. The cottage is ideally placed to visit Holmfirth and the surrounding area The Fox House Pub just along the B6106 is well worth a visit great food but book if you want Sunday lunch. There is also a nice deli and farm shop a short walk away.

Excellent and lovely cottage

Lovely Cottage
