Set in an elevated position overlooking the gorgeous green landscapes of the West Yorkshire countryside, is this picture postcard property, Box Tree Cottage. Renovated to a high standard throughout whilst retaining character and charm from many original features and traditional furnishings, this striking stone dwelling is perfectly suited to a family or group of four travelling with their canine companions to this spectacular part of the country. Leave your mud-splattered boots by the door and place your coats to hang in the vestibule, before retreating to the blissful sitting room to relax and unwind whilst the heat of the arresting woodburning stove warms your feet. Cross the gorgeous, tiled floor to the delightful kitchen/diner, home to a good selection of appliances such as an electric cooker with hob, sure to inspire many delicious home-cooked meals throughout your stay. Joining the space is a fabulous dining area with a gorgeous oak table and pretty, antique chairs, together offering a wonderful space to chat with loved ones over a hot cup of coffee and a tasty afternoon treat. Making your way up the staircase, you will be greeted by two well-appointed bedrooms; the first bedroom boasts a roomy kind-size bed from which to enjoy early morning views across the luscious open fields, along with a sophisticated en-suite shower, whilst just a few steps away the quaint and peaceful twin room has the benefit of an en-suite bathroom. Make the most of warmer weather with dinner alfresco out on the front patio, or soak up the sunshine as you lose yourself in a captivating novel and a refreshing glass of wine. Experience the very best that the area has to offer with strolls along the banks of the glistening Leeming Water to Leeming Reservoir, before grabbing a pint and a bite to eat at the fantastic local pub. Hike through the encompassing countryside and uncover the enchanting Bronte Waterfall, Ponden Kirk Fairy Cave and the abandoned stone farmhouse of Top Withens. Watch as steam trains depart from Oxenhope Station, or venture down to Causeway Foot for a fun-filled day of Archery and Mountain Boarding at Another World Activities Centre, a real hit with thrill seekers. Admire beautiful wildlife on a stroll through Ogden Water Country Park and Boggart Wood, or travel over to the town of Halifax for an afternoon at Manor Heath Jungle Experience and Eureka! The National Children's Museum. Over in Keighley, the Keighley Bus Museum and National Trust owned East Riddlesden Hall are well-worth a visit, whilst a pleasant drive away Diggerland Yorkshire and Light Water Valley are a real hit, with something for the whole family to enjoy. For an unforgettable holiday to Yorkshire with your nearest and dearest, Box Tree Cottage is the place for you!

Accomodation spotlessly clean with all you require for a break from the norm (although another baking tray would be helpful for some) Heating controllable and certainly adequate for us. If you are a keen walker - there is a fantastic array of footpaths directly from the door. We tried as many as we could fit in - visit every scrap of open access and you won't be disappointed - embrace the mud though as it is everywhere in March. Parking - not suitable for anything bigger than a SWB VW Transporter. It was a tight fit and this wasn't an issue as our van didn't need to move all week. Pubs - if you are a fan of decent beer look no further than the excellent Bay Horse in the village. We tried a few and this was the best by far. A real locals pub - no food that we witnessed on our several visits there. Highly recommended!

Ideally placed for seeing the area. Not too far away from any places you would want to see. The steam railway is a must

Everything you need for a great stay including a weekâs supply of firewood, most generous! Amazing views from the cottage, especially when covered in snow and great walks on the doorstep too. An easy walk to Haworth which is very quaint with lovely shops and pubs. Great meals and a friendly welcome at The Fleece. Canât fault Box Tree Cottage , but canât believe The Lamb and The Dog and Gun do not allow dogs especially as this is perfect dog walking country . Friendly welcome at The Bay Horse in the village which does music and quiz nights. A great stay all round . Thank you Jenny
