Greenfield Cottage

About this property

Tucked away in the small Pennine village of Oakworth, West Yorkshire, is this wonderful three-storey cottage, Greenfield Cottage. Enjoying a wonderful location with easy access to the local amenities, the popular town of Haworth and the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park, Greenfield Cottage is a superb dog-friendly dwelling for a group or family of six, plus their two canine companions. Park-up roadside, before being greeted by a charming front patio with furniture, the perfect spot for savouring your morning coffee. Step into the kitchen/diner, featuring beautiful, exposed beams and a handy washing machine and dishwasher, where you can prepare tasty home-cooked meals for your loved ones, ready to enjoy at the dining table for six as you recount the day's adventures. After dinner, relax on the plush seating in front of the crackling woodburning stove in the sitting room, as your favourite show plays out on the TV with FreeSat box. Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you can wash away the day in the contemporary shower room after a day of exploring. On this floor, you will also find two well-appointed bedrooms, a king-size and a twin, both with plenty of storage. Make your way up to the second floor, where you immediately step into the snug space, featuring a TV, DVD player and Nintendo, perfect for getting away from it all. Just off the snug you will find the third and final bedroom, a second twin with Velux windows and plenty of storage. Explore the local village, where you can treat your loved ones to a well-deserved meal at the welcoming Grouse Inn or Turkey Inn with beautiful views and fantastic food, followed by drinks at the Snooty Fox, perfect for those evenings when you don’t fancy cooking! The village also offers a well-stocked convenience store and a fish and chip takeaway for when you would prefer to dine in the comfort of Greenfield Cottage. The keen golfers in your party will delight at the nearby Branshaw Golf Club, where you can test out your swing with a backdrop of terrific views. If you don’t fancy driving, why not hop aboard a vintage steam train at the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway, where you can venture from Keighley to Oxenhope. The station was also featured in the 1970’s film adaptation of The Railway Children. In Keighley, you can tour the Keighley Bus Museum, visit the esteemed Cliffe Castle, picnic in Haworth Central Park or Oakworth Park or enjoy the fabulous surroundings of the nearby National Trust site of East Riddlesden Hall. Head to Haworth, where literary fans will have found their haven with the Bronte Parsonage Museum, the Bronte Waterfall, the scenic 69km Bronte Way, and the charming Wuthering Heights pub. All this and more awaits with a stay at Greenfield Cottage.

E.E. Nesbitt's renowned 1970 film adaptation of his novel, The Railway Children, was filmed in Oakworth, a little Pennine village just two miles from Haworth and overlooking the Worth Valley. In addition to being close to Haworth and the moors, Oakworth also features a lovely ornamental park and is conveniently located near Keighley, the county town. The Bronte sisters, who lived nearby in Haworth, were greatly influenced by the surrounding moorland. All of this is set against the beautiful countryside depicted in the novel Wuthering Heights in Haworth, which boasts an abundance of curious and antique shops, narrow passageways, and cobblestone streets.
