This outstanding stone-built detached cottage can be found in a quiet location surrounded by glorious countryside. Located between the bohemian and artsy market town of Hebden Bridge and the wonderfully preserved village of Heptonstall, the surrounding views are simply stunning. Nestled in the grounds of the owner’s home, this property has a wonderful mix of contemporary and traditional style and is enhanced further by the generously sized outdoor space, which catches the sun well into the evening.
Varied walks can be enjoyed direct from the door, with the surrounding countryside adjoining the 400 acre estate of National Trust’s Hardcastle Crags.

There are also links to both the Pennine Way and Calderdale Way providing simply endless opportunities.

Hebden Bridge itself has plenty of bars and restaurants, and even a famous old cinema where tea and cakes are served in the interval. Heptonstall is believed to be one of West Yorkshire’s best kept secrets, having a main street which has reportedly changed very little in the last 200 years, or you can just choose to relax in front of the gas fire wood burner style, in what is a truly outstanding holiday home. Shop 1½ miles, pub and restaurant 1 mile.

The cottage is lovely in a lovely location (although in snowy, icy conditions, it might be quite scary).The property is well heated, plenty of towels and comfy beds.Plenty of room for all of our party (5 adults, and 3 children), with easy access to both Hebden Bridge and Heppenstall.A slight criticism but nothing that spoilt the holiday, was, couldn't use 1 shower from our first morning due to a significant leak (the owner did send someone on the day but it couldn't be resolved during our stay).I lifted a chair in the kitchen and the back came away in my hand. The bannister wobbled at the bottom, the fixing wasn't great. The baby gate fixing pulled away from the wall. Finally, we cooked a lot but the oven cookware had mostly seen better days.We paid a significant amount for our stay over New Year so these minor criticism's were a little surprising.
