Great base for getting around the area as well, bus stop about 80yds away with regular buses to surrounding towns, just 20 minutes by bus is Keighley the train station is only a 5 - 7min walk from the bus station which was ideal for us, managed to park our car on Rawdon Rd for free, just round the corner quite handy, as mentioned in the handbook.

The kitchen utensils were very sparce. Hot water and heating were amazing but most of the heat was lost through both doors. The key box and mortise were very difficult to action. The single beds are simply too small for adults.

Lovely warm cottage on the Main Street. We stayed for a midweek break and the village was all decorated for Halloween and extremely atmospheric. Walking into the cottage on a cold autumn evening into the warm and snug living room was a delight. The kitchen had everything we needed including a washer / dryer and thereâs an ironing board and iron upstairs. While the bathroom is small, it does its job and the shower was very good. Even though you are right on the cobbled street , itâs still quiet at night and we slept very well. Dave, the owner is very friendly and on hand for any queries. Lots of places to eat and drink and prices very reasonable with hearty Yorkshire portions. Would love to return next year, as all the locals were down to earth and made us feel very welcome!
