A lovely house with the bonus of off road parking. Very clean and appreciated the bottle of wine and biscuits. Reasonably close to the town centre although be prepared for the very steep hill up to the property. Hosts left a lot of really helpful information about local attractions which we made use of. Only minor niggle that there wasn't a hairdryer but that was my fault as check the site.

A very nice cottage with everything you need for a great holiday. Nice and quiet overnight and lovely views from the garden and lounge window. Lots to do in Holmfirth without even using the car. Will be coming back again at some point.

Lovely house with everything you could ever need. Lovely views across the valley. The step into the house is quite high and was difficult for my elderly father to get up. The washing machine drawer where the soap powder goes it was dark brown and could definitely do with a clean. Some of the crockery and cutlery wasn't clean. The bottle of wine and biscuits was a nice surprise.
