Arranged over three floors and well suited to couples or friends looking to enjoy village life alongside countryside exploration.

With reverse‑level living and a sociable layout, this inviting cottage makes the most of its setting and offers a well‑considered base for a memorable stay.

On arrival, the ground floor hosts two double bedrooms, each providing a restful place to unwind after days out exploring the surrounding area.

This level is also home to a WC, along with a handy cloakroom, making the layout practical for shared stays.

Climb the stairs to the first floor and you’ll discover the open‑plan living space, where the kitchen, dining and sitting areas come together.

This bright and social room is ideal for preparing meals, gathering around the dining table, or settling into the sitting area with the Smart TV after a day outdoors.

A further set of stairs leads up to the second‑floor mezzanine snug, a versatile space well suited to reading, relaxing or simply enjoying a quieter moment away from the main living areas.

Please note that the steps leading up to the mezzanine are steep, and guests are asked to take care.

Outside the cottage, parking is available, adding convenience to your stay.

Local shops and welcoming pubs sit just moments away on foot, making it easy to enjoy meals out or pick up essentials without needing the car.

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.
