Belvedere Farm

About this property

Tucked away amongst 10 glorious acres of woodland on the outskirts of Hipperholme, West Yorkshire, rests this striking Victorian holiday home, Belvedere Farm. Set across four levels and comfortably sleeping up to 12 guests, Belvedere Farm is the perfect base for a group of friends or family looking for a countryside retreat. Journey through the woodland along the track road and park up at the foot of this magnificent dwelling, marvelling at the eye-catching Victorian architecture and the peaceful setting of the surrounding greenery before making your way inside to begin your staycation. Stepping inside, discover a handy utility room alongside a shower room, where you can freshen up your wardrobe and enjoy a quick rinse following a day of adventure. When stomachs start to rumble, make your way through to the well-equipped kitchen, where the designated chef can make use of the fantastic facilities to prepare heart-warming dishes before loading the dishwasher to keep the space neat and tidy. Uncork a chilled bottle of wine from the cooler and gather together with your guests in the nearby dining room to indulge, backed by the sound of your favourite show playing on the Smart TV, or make mealtimes an alfresco affair with a sociable seat on the patio, backed by the peaceful scenery of the still waters of the pond. Settle down for the evening with a sumptuous spot in front of the Smart TV in the sitting room, uniquely positioned on the first floor and thoughtfully laid out with a traditional décor of exposed wooden beams and a rustic woodburning stove. Escape the excitement and enjoy an intimate escape in the snug, where you can delve into the pages of a captivating book at the glow of the electric fire gently warms the room. End each day in style with an indulgent soak in the bubbling hot tub for an evening under the stars or retreat indoors to the orangery where you can finish up evening drinks whilst still enjoying the unspoilt countryside views. When sleep calls, you're spoilt for choice between six well-presented bedrooms, the first of which is accessed via a set of stairs leading from the orangery, where you'll find a sumptuous king-size with the benefit of its own en-suite bathroom, perfect for beating the morning queues! Two king-size rooms and a double and are all positioned on the second floor, with a further king-size and double set in an elevated position on the third floor, with the latter fit with their own Smart TV so you can catch up on your favourite show from the comfort of the covers. Along with the ground floor shower room, servicing this fabulous property is a second-floor bathroom, fit with an elegant roll-top bath and walk-in shower, along with a third-floor shower room, giving guests the choice between a luxurious soak amongst the bubbles or a quick morning rinse. Get better acquainted with your surroundings and take a leisurely stroll through the extensive grounds that envelope your new home-from-home where you can watch the ducks as the play on the peaceful waters of the pond. The property also has a pool table, dartboard, bar and sofas in a detached building in the grounds. Take a break from doing the cooking and venture into the heart of Hipperholme where you'll find a fantastic selection of delicious eateries on offer, ranging from elegant restaurants, traditional pubs and convenient takeaways, promising to serve something to suit all tastes and budgets, or if you'd prefer, head to the local shop to pick-up some tasty treats to enjoy from the comfort of your holiday home. Keep entertained with a visit to Shibden Park, where you can tour the medieval grounds of Shibden Hall, a Grade II* listed historic house, indulge in a coffee and a slice of cake with a view of the boating lake at Coffee Culture In The Park, or journey through the greenery aboard the Miniature Railway. Be sure to pack your clubs, as the avid golfer may want to spend an afternoon at Lightcliffe Golf Club or the nearby Crow Nest Park Golf Club. Jump in the car and visit the bustling town of Halifax, where you can treat yourself to a spot of retail therapy or a well-deserved tipple at The Piece Hall Halifax, catch a live performance at the Victoria Theatre Halifax, or keep the little ones busy with a fascinating exploration of the interactive exhibits on display at Eureka! The National Children's Museum. For your next group celebration in Yorkshire, be sure to choose Belvedere Farm as a base that you'll be delighted to return to.
