  • "We loved staying here, and are considering going back."

    The only point I would make is that more warning about the steep narrow stairs would be good. Also the cooking equipment could do with looking at. Maybe bigger Colander and smaller frying pan. But having said that, everything is usable, Tracey and Michael went out of there way to ensure we were okay and had all we needed. They are so friendly. Thank you for a lovely holiday. Also the photos don't do the views justice. Was simply stunning.

    Tracy and Michael have been great hosts - welcoming us but allowing us the privacy to make this our own mini holiday. The cottage is well set up with everything you need for practicalities combined with the most amazing views. Would recommend this cottage readily for any couple wanting to get away from it all.

About the location

HAWORTH

Skipton 13 miles; Hebden Bridge 8 miles.

The small village of Haworth was home to the famous Bronte sisters, who were inspired by the surrounding moorland to pen their novels, which have become classics of English Literature. Haworth is a village that time almost forgot, with its myriad of curiosity and antique shops, alleyways and cobbled streets creating a wonderful period atmosphere, all set against a framing backdrop of countryside famously described in the novel Wuthering Heights as wild, rugged and barren. Nearby, the famous Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, an authentic steam railway brought to prominence in the film The Railway Children, provides a lovely day out with a regular service to the old village of Oxenhope. The area abounds with popular places to visit, including the Bronte Parsonage Museum, East Riddlesden Hall, and the National Railway Museum in York. The market town of Skipton, often fondly regarded as the Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, is just a short drive away, and also within reach are elegant Harrogate and vibrant Leeds and Manchester.
