Butterfly Cottage

About this property

This beautiful Victorian terrace is situated in the village of Clayton, near Haworth, almost equidistant to the Yorkshire Dales and Peak District National Parks. Built in 1851, Butterfly Cottage is now a wonderful, vibrant holiday home with modern touches making it perfect for couples and young families. A bright, spacious living area stretches across the length of the property, providing a lovely, sociable space for cooking and relaxing together. At the front of the room, the sitting area has a large bookcase filled with interesting reads and a comfy armchair by a living-flame gas fire. Meanwhile, the kitchen is fully equipped for all your culinary needs and enjoys a pretty view over the patio garden. After a busy day, two bedrooms upstairs offer a great night’s sleep! The master room has plenty of hanging space, a double bed and a view of Victoria Park across the road, while the second bedroom has Velux windows and double doors opening to a Juliet balcony over the back garden. In the large, modern bathroom, a long soak in the P-shaped bath is the perfect remedy for aching muscles after an invigorating walk. The south-facing garden is a delightful place to enjoy the sunshine and happy sound of birdsong over breakfast, lunch or dinner in the sunshine. On the opposite side of the park is a good pub, and the village supermarket is only a 10-minute walk away where you can pick up the week’s essentials. Just eight miles from Haworth, Clayton sits in the centre of Bronte Country. With beautiful countryside at your fingertips, the area is perfect for walkers and cyclists. The World Heritage Site of Saltaire is a short drive away, a fascinating place to visit with many restaurants, craft and gift shops, as well as the fabulous art on display at the Salt Mills. The lovely market town of Hebden Bridge, a half hour drive away, is full of interesting shops and places to eat. Further afield, you can easily visit Skipton, Harrogate, Ilkley, Leeds or the stunning, walled city of York. A truly wonderful holiday cottage!

The village of Clayton is situated in the heart of Bronte Country, with a village shop, supermarket, several good pubs and a Methodist church. It also has a challenging 9-hole parkland golf course situated beside the pretty Horton Bank Country Park, with a lake and several picnic benches where you can enjoy lunch. The popular village of Haworth is just eight miles away, and the beautiful Yorkshire Dales and Peak District National Parks can be reached in less than an hour. A wonderful holiday base for exploring Yorkshire!
