What our customers say about their holidays

  The Old Corn Store was the first holiday myself and my husband went on together when we had only been dating a few months - and this visit was our 2nd stay at the property (for our 2nd wedding anniversary!

  ). We received a warm welcome from the hosts - bubbly, milk and biscuits was a lovely touch and very welcome after a long drive from Scotland! The cottage is lovely - amazing views, hot tub and has everything you need for your stay. It was also fun to see the animals on the farm - there are often helpers around on the farm so just ask them and they are more than happy to let you visit the animals. Only gripe would be that we were waaay too warm the first night - however, my husband spoke to the hosts the following day and turns out there was another thermostat hiding behind a curtain that we hadn't seen - problem solved! Only other thing I would say is that the road leading to the farm is very pot-holey and could do with a repair. This cottage is ideal for couples and a dog (we took our little dog with us too). Recommend going to the moors for a walk. Also recommend going into Haworth (we actually spent most of our time there when we were out). A few (dog friendly) eateries worth a mention - Haworth Old Hall (owners are a delight and very tasty food), the Hawthorn (amazing steaks from charcoal grill), The Fleece Inn (yummy pies). Also worth popping to the chocolate shop in Howarth and picking up a box of their signature salted toffee and coconut oil truffles (shop is not dog friendly- but the lady working there is lovely). Thank you for a wonderful stay and we cannot wait to return again! Nikki, Joe and Snoopy x

  We've just had a magical weekend at this lovely property. When we entered it was toasty warm and smelled gorgeous. As well as being perfectly situated and fully equipped, it has everything you need for a relaxing break, from bracing beach walks, to local eateries, or you can sit in the upstairs lounge, read a book and just gaze at the stunning views like I did! There are games and books dotted about, also the artwork was fascinating and a good conversation starter. The rear patio was cozy and had comfy furniture to sit and have a morning cuppa whilst the sun comes up .Location was superb, we dined at 'The View' where the food was top notch, and the staff and clientele were really welcoming and friendly. We also went to Cafe Largo for breakfast, which is only a short walk along the sand dunes. The owners left a comprehensive guide to local activities and restaurants, which we found useful. We would 100% recommend this property, and will definitely be staying again. It's worth noting that we enquired about this booking with only two days notice, and the owners were gracious enough to accept us , even with such short notice. Don't hesitate to book!

  What an amazing time we’ve had up in West Yorkshire for my 23rd birthday.

  Me and my Fiancée enjoyed 3 nights up in the picturesque ‘The Old Corn Store’. We didn’t speak much to the hosts but we were welcomed warmly and greeted with a ‘morning’ when we bumped into them. They accommodated very well for our dog with a paddock at the back for him to run around in. The cottage was very warm, clean and comfortable. The location is perfect, overlooking the town below and at night in the hot tub offered some relaxing views. We visited Haworth and Skipton which offer a wide range of Dog friendly pubs and cafes. Great facilities within the lodge with ovens and hob, fridge freezer and even a dishwasher and an extremely spacious shower. Overall it was just so relaxing and enjoyable which was something we wanted to do on this break. We’re not ones for normally going back somewhere when we’ve been no matter how joyous it may have been, because we like to explore other places. However, we will be making an exception in this case and will hopefully be back before the year is out. Thankyou so much to the owners for having us and for the Prosecco on arrival too. Very classy touch.

  On the whole we had a lovely holiday. However there were a few things we weren’t happy about. When we arrived the instructions re the key were incorrect. It said the key safe was on the side of the house - it was actually in the garage. The code was also wrong. I had tried to ring the owner but there was no answer. Luckily a neighbour came out to help us and knew where the key safe was and what the correct Code was. I received an email at 20.30 on Saturday evening providing the correct information- just 4.5 hours too late. Secondly the oven didn’t work and tripped the electrics when we tried to use it. I tried to call the owner several times about this but there was never a response. There were no cleaning cloths in the kitchen and no bread knife or sharp knife (minor inconveniences). On our departure date the owner rang me to ask what time we were leaving. I confirmed 11 a m. She then told me she was just two doors away. Clearly she had my number and must have seen my missed calls but left it until our departure time to get in touch.

  After deciding that we needed a short break, we found The Old Corn Store perfect for what we needed.

  The owners make you feel welcome with complimentary wine and usual things such as milk etc. The hot tub was brilliant having spent every evening winding down after busy days out. Both our dogs loved staying and enjoyed the local area for walks. The cottage was cosy and warm with all the facilities you need. Only thing missing from our stay was a bath mat when getting out the shower but didn't change our opinion of the property. Watching the farm animals out the window each morning was also a plus point of the stay, as was the proximity to town for shopping etc. Overall, a lovely stay and will definitely be back. Only thing else to note is at this time of year, not all vehicles will find access to the property easy as it's a farm track and can get very muddy and rutted (being in a 4x4, this didn't affect us) and also ignore the satnav as this lane definitely isn't accessible from the bottom! Reasonably priced stay with everything you need for a short and cosy break. Many thanks.
