Nestled within the South Pennines, is Calderdale, West Yorkshire, an area of outstanding natural beauty, and its bustling town, Sowerby Bridge. The Barn, at Crow Hill Shaw Farm is located in the hills above the towns made famous by the Sally Wainwright series Happy Valley, Last Tango in Halifax, and Gentleman Jack. Whilst here, you may choose to soak up the scenery with plenty of walks across the moorlands to Ripponden, Mytholmroyd, Stoodley Pike, and Hebden Bridge; or take a gentler walk along a rural and peaceful section of the Calder and Hebble Navigation, The nearby Rochdale Canal runs for 33 miles, and the Tour de France route through Cragg Vale makes the Barn an excellent location for cycling, Just a short distance away from here are the charming market towns of Hebden Bridge and Halifax. Halifax is home to some of Yorkshire’s most famous landmarks, including the Minster, Dean Clough, Shibden Hall and the Piece Hall, as well as the splendid Halifax Borough Market; there is so much on offer in this town, Slightly further afield is Haworth, where along the cobbled main street lies a number of quaint cafés and independent shops, as well as attractions including the world famous Brontë Parsonage Museum, where the sisters once lived and penned some of our best loved books, Other attractions within the surrounding area includes the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, Halifax Bradley Hall Golf Club, the Manor Heath Jungle Experience, and the Hardcastle Crags. Look forward to staying in Sowerby Bridge and exploring the surrounding area of West Yorkshire.
The vibrant market town of Sowerby Bridge is located in Calderdale, West Yorkshire, in the Upper Calder Valley. You can utilise this town as a starting point for exploring the surrounding area because it serves as a gateway to the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors national parks. Two rivers, two canals, and a wide variety of dining and drinking establishments may all be found in the mill town's centre. You may find something to suit everyone's tastes here, whether you want to try award-winning Indian cuisine at Kipling's restaurant or dine at one of the many restaurants on the Wharf with breathtaking views of the water. While you're here, you can choose to take in the countryside by going for a stroll along the Calder and Hebble Navigation, which looks to be a quiet and rural path, or you can bike 33 miles down the Rochdale Canal. The picturesque market town of Halifax, which is not far from here, is home to some of Yorkshire's most well-known attractions, including the Minster, Dean Clough, Shibden Hall, and the Piece Hall, as well as the magnificent Halifax Borough Market; there is much to see and do in this town. A little further away is Howarth, which has a variety of charming cafés and unique businesses along its cobbled main street in addition to world-famous Bront Parsonage Museum, where the sister formerly resided and wrote some of our most beloved tales. The Hardcastle Crags, Manor Heath Jungle Experience, and Halifax Bradley Hall Golf Club are some of the nearby attractions.

It was lovely to arrive to the extras of breakfast, fruit and g&t. The fresh flowers were a nice touch. I drive a pick up truck and I could easily get in parking space and off the road. Would definately recommend a stay here.

Waking up to nature on your doorstep and the fabulous views was fantastic plus on a clear night makes star gazing great as there's little light pollution. Dave and Debbie are very welcoming and you only need to ask if you need anything.

David very helpful with the query we had and also offered to lock our bikes away, bringing them back down to our door the morning of our departure.
