"We visited the cottage on a working holiday, to get inspiration from the landscape and some peace and quiet."
It did not disappoint on any front, and when we walked through the door we all audibly gasped at the view! The tearoom in Heptonstall is a pleasant ramble away, and the drive to Hebden Bridge is less than fifteen minutes (and again, extremely pleasant). Facilities at the cottage were excellent, it was clean and thoughtfully furnished with cosy blankets, LED candles and wood for the fire. We will definitely be visiting again.

"As someone who doesn't drive but loves staying in remote cottages Pike View was perfect."
I could get the bus right from Hebden Bridge train station to almost the front door. Having a very frequent bus service meant I could walk to Heptonstall and Hebden Bridge then catch the bus back. There was a beautiful walk to Colden Clough from the cottage as well. The views from the cottage were beautiful and I spent the evenings watching a pheasant family and barn owls from the window seat. Then once it got dark there were bats. The cottage had everything you needed and was beautifully furnished. There are steep stairs between the floors but I got used to them. My pets loved the garden and I was lucky enough to be able to sit out in the sun most days. I definitely hope to return.
Thank you so much for the lovely feedback , so pleased you enjoyed your stay , hope to welcome you again Property Owner

About the location
HEPTONSTALL
Hebden Bridge 1.5 mile; Haworth 8 miles.
The village of Heptonstall is set high on a prominent hillside above its close neighbour, Hebden Bridge. Heptonstall is one of West Yorkshire's best kept secrets; a wonderfully preserved village with a main street that has changed very little in the last 200 years. Formerly an important centre for hand-loom weaving, the village still retains its original trading hall, while the old Grammar School, by the churchyard, is now a museum testifying to the village's illustrious past. The churchyard is also the burial home for the American poet, novelist & short-story writer Sylvia Plath, perhaps best known for her collections of published poems & novel "The Bell Jar". Heptonstall was a place she stayed in before & during her marriage to the poet Ted Hughes. In the centre are the two remaining pubs, the Cross Inn, believed to date from the early 17th century, and the White Lion, rumoured to be haunted by a Roundhead on a horse, a throwback to when the village was besieged during the Civil War. Nearby is the attractive town of Hebden Bridge, while the area is a must for steam railway enthusiasts who will enjoy the thriving Worth Valley Railway. Skipton, the Gateway to the Dales, is an easy and scenic car ride away.
