We had a lovely stay at Sanctuary Cottage. The property is very well presented and clearly loved by the owners. When we arrived we had been left treats for our labrador and sweets and Prosecco for us. We thought parking on the narrow road outside might be an issue, but it was never a problem. There are some various good walks close by and we'd recRead moreommend the food and drink at The Pickled Pheasant which is a short walk down the road. Hide

A fabulous little cottage up on a hillside road leading to several walks around local reservoirs and woodland. Equally the village centre was a downhill stroll of 10 minutes. The cottage is immaculate, with every possible facility needed to feel like home. Recommended!

Very well modernised cottage using quality materials, kitchen goods, great bed, quality blinds etc. The cottage is in a quiet road and the local village is within easy walking reach. Recommend the walk to the deep Ramsden Clough, the good food served in the local pub and the local eggs available just up the road. The history of the local mills & ocRead morecasional destructive floods, described in a cottage booklet, is very interesting. Hide

Absolutely immaculate cottage. The attention to detail in the workmanship on the property is high level. The location was perfect for walks with the dog. Great local pub and 30 minute walk into Holmfirth
