Our home

Our house is a spacious warm and quaint family home, formerly two weavers' cottages, situated right near the old mill and the Pennine moors, great for walking and cycling.

We have a lovely light kitchen with a skylight, family table and granite worktops.

The sitting room is split level, mullioned windows overlooking the hills opposite the house. Big sofas, gas fueled coal burner in stone fireplace and big 50" TV make for a comfortable relaxing zone after you come in from your long walks and cycling up hills and down dales....or your relaxing shop in local Hebden Bridge ('the great town for little shops')...or your trip to York, Manchester or Leeds (all an accessible train ride away).

Accommodation is two double bedrooms, two small single bedrooms and a playroom with double sofa bed. There is a downstairs loo and utility room, which houses washer dryer, freezer, recycling and the usual family overflow of detritus.

Our favorite things about the house: its cosy but spacious atmosphere (old world but light and warm), its location (amazing rural valley location), its local pub (the Lord Nelson, yes we have staggered up the cobbled pack horse track after an evening out) and best of all, its complete quiet.

We are a family of five (including teenagers) so our house isn't perfectly perfect but its comfortable, friendly and warm.....we hope you will find it a home from home....with a difference..Give us a buzz!

Who we are

We are a family of five (apparently I am not to mention the word t....agers), we are all non-smoking, busy all day and enjoying relaxing evenings in front of our unreasonably large TV.....most of us love to go out for bike rides, and we have a rabbit which is very friendly and love to come into the kitchen to play and eat carrots.

Where is it?

Your neighbourhood

Oh, what can we say? It's gorgeous... Set at the edge of a historic village in the amazing Luddenden Dene valley, you can walk onto the moors up cobbled tracks, or cycle along country lanes and cycle tracks, or just walk into the village and have a pint in the village pub, the Lord Nelson where Bronte stopped on his walk through to Haworth, and where you can get a decent meal several nights a week...or you could travel a couple of miles into Sowerby Bridge which has some fantastic restaurants.

Hebden Bridge is about three miles away, with its 'funky' image and great shopping environment, as well as historic pack horse bridge and great cafes and little clothes shops. The waterfalls at Jerusalem Farm and Hardcastle Crags will blow all your cobwebs away and if you are a kid (or a big kid) you can even paddle in the rivers ....bring wellies.
