A rural location on a working hill farm 1250ft above sea-level, you’ll be greeted on arrival by breathtaking, far reaching views over the reservoir, moorland and surrounding countryside.

Alternatively you can simply relax in the peaceful surroundings and experience tranquillity, surrounded by bustling hill-breed sheep and wildlife.

Fantastic location on a quiet farm. Beautiful views across hills and the reservoir. The property was immaculately clean and well equipped. Very spacious for four adults and two dogs. Very comfortable and nicely furnished. Really nice owners who were onsite to help if needed. If you want a peaceful stay with stunning views and access to local amenities this is well worth a visit.

Enjoyed our stay at this cottage, the only thing I found a problem was not being able to reach the downstairs windows to open. The cottage was very warm and has a cozy feel to it, the cottage is also well equipped. It's not close to shops or pubs but if you want a chilled relaxing break then this is the place for you. I loved it.

Thank you for a lovely break, spotlessly clean and everything we needed for a home from home break in a beautiful setting. Close enough to the town of Holmfirth, which was a pleasant surprise, full of lovely shops and restaurants... Hope to return.
