Slip into a slower pace of life in this picturesque stone cottage in the idyllic Yorkshire town of Holmfirth. Sleeping six guests, the property is the perfect base for families and groups of friends looking to explore the breathtaking landscape of the Peak District National Park. You’ll find many walking trails branching away from the town, and the Pennine Cycleway also passes close to the cottage.

Stone steps lead to the front door of this characterful holiday home and into a spacious entrance hall that’s ideal for storing outdoor attire. From here, move through to the elegant lounge, which is decorated in muted tones to create a relaxed atmosphere and enjoys far-reaching countryside views. Unwind here after an action-packed day, reading a book or catching up on your favourite programmes on the Smart TV. The social hub of the house is an impressive kitchen/diner which has everything needed to rustle up tasty feasts for the group and a large dining table to seat everyone. Upstairs, you’ll find two elegant bedrooms and a family bathroom. The remaining bedrooms (a twin and a single, for alternate sleeping only) are set in the eaves on the second floor. The cottage has two outdoor areas, so you can follow the sunshine throughout the day. To the front, discover a cute garden with a seating area to make the most of the countryside views, and to the rear, you’ll find a patio with furniture and a BBQ for al fresco dining.

Holmfirth is a traditional Yorkshire town with cobbled streets and historic stone cottages, along with friendly pubs and cosy cafes. Holmfirth became famous as the filming location for the TV classic Last of the Summer Wine, and you’ll still find many references to the show dotted throughout the town. The Peak District National Park is on your doorstep, 7 miles, offering endless walking opportunities. Popular routes include the Holme Valley Riverside Way and the circular trail around Digley Reservoir.
