About this property
Relax with your loved one at Ivy Bank Cottage, a welcoming cottage where you can spend an intimate escape in this romantic literary location. Boasting gorgeous views of the famous moorland and elevated village, this dwelling is the perfect spot to take a break from the stress of daily life. Make your way up the steps to this elevated, stone-built terraced cottage, featuring lots of original character and homely fixtures throughout an open-plan living space and a double bedroom. Make use of the well-equipped kitchen area and rustle up a delicious home-cooked meal for two which can be enjoyed over a bottle of wine, reminiscing over old stories and planning fun-filled days in Haworth.
Follow up with an evening on the snug sofa in front of the cosy fire whilst you watch a film on the Smart TV, this homely room makes the perfect setting for a quiet evening in. When you're ready to call it a night, retire upstairs to the super-king-size bed, which can be made into a twin if holidaying with a friend; the bedroom has stunning views over to the far-reaching moors, surrounding village houses and railway track and is home to a unique en-suite shower room, which can be entered through two separate doors, and features a basin, a WC and a shower in the centre.
The cottage overlooks Haworth's Central Park, a lovely area to take a morning stroll around the tranquil flower gardens or enjoy an afternoon picnic before heading over to the bowls area. The centre of Haworth surrounds this property, a beautiful village recognised for being the home-town of the famous Bronte sisters, boasting quaint cobbled streets, boutique shops, tea rooms, country pubs and restaurants, as well as museums, bridges and buildings linking back to the Bronte family home and literary past. Pick one of the many village footpaths leading to various walking trails and cycling routes around the nearby reservoirs and Bronte Falls.
Alternatively, hop on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway which is just a short walk away and was used as the famous filming location of classic drama, The Railway Children, with a real look into vintage carriages and transport links at the Keighley Bus Museum. Explore the charming towns of Skipton and Harrogate, both offering even more shopping opportunities, eateries and theatres, as well as a dramatic castle and historic buildings.
