"Fantastic cottage, has everything you could possibly need."
Kids took over the super king size bed, so they could watch TV in bed , once finished in the play room. Nice and quiet location. Kids loved the little play ground and looking at the chickens.
Thank you so much Property Owner

"We loved our stay at Moldy Warp."
Beautiful, quirky and rustic cottage barn, which is full of charm and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The location was brilliant, with so much to do on the doorstep, but some amazing days out within an hour's drive. We visited as a family of four, and our young boys loved the swings available at the property too. The hosts, Dave and Fiona, were lovely, friendly and chatty - with entertaining stories and a clear passion for the barn and local area, and were committed to ensuring we had all we needed and were comfortable. One of our favourite days out was based on a recommendation from Fiona of a little known and little advertised attraction - just fabulous. We will definitely be back - thank you so much!

"As a family we wished to stay close to Haworth but also in a secluded spot to enjoy the beautiful surrounding countryside."
Moldy Warp Barn is perfectly situated on a farm within walking distance or a short car ride from Haworth. A medieval building full of character. And as a childhood reader of Little Grey Rabbit books by Alison Uttley, with Moldy Warp the mole I was very drawn to the holiday home. Katie and Dave are wonderful hosts, who made us feel so welcome, despite their clearly very busy lives, by the end of our stay we felt we'd been staying with friends. Katie offered advise on where to visit, told us the very interesting history of the buildings and introduced us to some of their animals including Mrs Pecky and her chicks, Puddycat and Caris the dove. When we found out she was also an incredibly skilled harpist and we had a grade 1 harpist in our family she very kindly leant us a harp for the duration of our stay. We be extremely happy to visit again.

Thank you Property Owner

"Delightful property, the nicest we've ever stayed in."
It was decorated to a stunning level! Considering it was on a working farm it was so peaceful with beautiful scenery and walks right on the doorstep. The owners were so helpful and kind will definitely be coming back!

"Our family had a great time staying at Moldy Warp Barn."
It was very cosy and met our accommodation needs 100%. The games room was enjoyed very much! There is ample parking which we appreciated as our adult children stayed in the cottage and my husband and I visited meaning four cars were parked up at times. The farm eggs were also a lovely touch - thank you. The owner made us feel very welcome and was very accommodating. We will definitely return.
Thank you so much Property Owner

"Amazing property and people!"
What an amazing place almost magical, my children were ready to move in! Everything you needed was at the barn, I took tea towels, washing up liquid, sponges and dog bowls etc but it was so well equipped I needn't of bothered. Katie and David have thought of everything! On entering the property on arrival there was a basket on the table with fresh eggs from the farm, biscuits, tea towel, snacks a little welcome note all in a lovely little basket. I have a toddler and was a bit worried about the stairs after reading the reviews but they are fine and beautiful. Each step has large flat grips on them and they were normal size if not bigger than normal and they had a wooden gate at the top which stopped the dogs from getting up and said toddler from falling down, such a relief. Everywhere had blankets if needed my girls loved the sheep ones and an extra quilt for the main bed although it was warm enough we didn't need it. The children loved the playroom and just everything you can imagine was thought of at this barn. It was beautiful and the decor was just perfect for an old barn. I must also add I wasn't kept up by dogs or heard them hourly, they do have dogs but further away from the property and its a working farm in the countryside so you are surrounded by nature and farm. The views are amazing and so much to do right on the doorstep, literally! If you walk out of the barn there is a footpath behind the owners property that takes you across a field over a small road and small footpath again to three chimneys cottage from the film the railway children at the bottom of the hill is the railway line that was used and you can still journey on a steam train if you wanted. Haworth is along the road and home to the bronte sisters and lovely quaint shops. Katie and David are amazing people, i was a bit worried at first being so close to the owners property but they didn't interfere or come over it was i that was popping to see them. Such interesting people and katie showed us her harps and played for us, my autistic daughter never talks but happily talked to katie and fell in love with the harp, will definitely be booking again! Thank you Kate and David for a magical week! X

"A lovely stay in a quirky and comfortable barn conversion."
Thank you and glad you enjoyed your stay Property Owner

"We booked Moldy Warp Barn because we thought we'd have a dog by this time, unfortunately that didn't work out for us."
So we didn't have a dog to irritate the dog's in the pen which did bark day and night, not continuously but at least hourly.... We left a day early because lack of sleep was driving me nuts... Otherwise Moldy Warp Barn was fine hosts were friendly, my adult grandchildren really enjoyed their chat with the guy about the old car renovation.
Thank you for your feedback and I know from chats with my husband that you and your extended family were really enjoying your stay and meeting up at Moldy Warp Barn. I am sorry you were disturbed by a dog during the night. I was quite baffled by this, especially since a family member had visited the property the week before to talk to our guests, and we’d not heard anything in the farmhouse opposite. Our dogs are trained sheepdogs and as such don’t really bark unless they are disturbed and I have seldom heard them in the night, and we’ve never had any issue other than a couple of weeks ago. The property has been a holiday cottage for 5 years and we’ve always had sheep and sheepdogs. They sleep in kennels at the other side of the farm from the barn. I know you were admiring them from the conversation with my husband. However I have since found out that the cottage at the back of the barn has been looking after a dog for a family member on and off for a few weeks and it was very unsettled. I have had words with them, the dog is back at it’s real home now permanently and all I can do is apologise for a situation that was out of our control. Please always talk to us about any issue as we live on site and we will always try to resolve it. Property Owner

"Our stay at Moldy Warp Barn definitely recharged our batteries!"
The accommodation is quirky and comfy, with everything you need. We particularly liked chilling out in the large lounge cum bedroom area upstairs, which was very atmospheric with the minstrel style floor gallery above us, the tapestries and drapes, and lamp light. We had the honour to be the last guests to use the current stairs before they are replaced! The barn and local area are full of literary and film history, with wonderful walks on the doorstep. The nights were so quiet, apart from the odd owl hoot! The hosts are lovely and friendly, and Kate definitely deserves recognition for her work as a harpist, with wonderful tales to tell. We hope to return!
Thank you so much. So pleased you enjoyed your stay. The new staircase looks amazing - you will love it Property Owner

"If the owner is breeding dogs, and the kennels are directly outside the rental, this is material information."
Dogs barked day and night - meaning we slept very poorly and left early. The upstairs is also VERY dark with hardly any natural light.
Sorry you didn’t enjoy all of your stay. The kennels are well away from the property but your little dog, Monty, had a very inquisitive nature and was constantly exploring and sadly barking at our dogs, setting them off! However this wasn’t that often and certainly not in the night. The dogs are trained sheep dogs, are very sociable and very tolerant of visiting dogs as long as they don’t invade their space. I am so glad your children enjoyed cuddling the puppy and playing in the park. The property is over 1000 years old and as such has small mullion windows upstairs. The minstrels gallery benefits from a modern velux so there is indeed quite a lot of natural daylight and sunlight. Most people find the atmosphere beautiful and calming. Property Owner

"We had a fabulous time."
Kate and Dave are a lovely couple. We are definitely going to book again. If I could give 10 stars I would

"An absolutely beautiful property!"
So quaint and set in the most beautiful spot. The owners Katie and Dave are amazing hosts and so friendly. Nothing was too much trouble, Katie broke her ankle when we were away and still made time to make sure we were ok and to check on us. We cannot recommend this place enough. The surrounding areas has so much to do. We will definitely be back. We had the most wonderful time in the most most wonderful place with lovely people. What more could you ask for?
Thank you so much Property Owner

"We had a really fantastic stay."
Great facilities, really comfortable, the main bed was huge. The owners were friendly and helpful and we couldn't have asked for more. We also loved the wee cat. We would definitely come again and recommend to our friends and family.
Thank you so much Property Owner

"We had a very enjoyable week using this absolutely unique barn conversion as a base to explore Haworth and the surrounding area."
It was great to have parking for two cars and some good dog-walking routes on the doorstep. Due to the steep open-tread stairs it would not be suitable for anyone with mobility issues (or who is bothered by heights!) and it meant that our labrador was confined to the ground floor. But on the whole, a fantastic place to visit.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you had a good holiday. The stairs are actually just standard so not extra steep or anything but are open tread at the moment. The property is over 1000 years old so it has taken a lot of planning but we are putting in another staircase in a couple of weeks! It will have a half landing and will not have open tread ! Property Owner

"Really enjoyed the stay, big thanks to Fiona and David for their knowledge and hospitality."
The accommodation accurately reflected expectations and the quirky nature of the barn was unique and quite spectacular. A few nervous moments climbing the rather steep stairs but got used to it after a few climbs. Perfect location and close to Howarth attractions.
Thank you. So glad you had a lovely stay with us Property Owner

"This property was so bad that my sister and I did not even spend one night there."
We desperately searched for somewhere else to spend our three night break. Fortunately, we found somewhere last minute with the help of Abby at Sykes. Moody Warp Barn was just that, Moldy. Downstairs was cold and damp and the sparse comforts were either set or damp. The bedrooms smelled of damp and the sheets felt damp. The stairs to the lounge were treacherous and that should be emphasised y the owner. My dogs refused to climb them and I, at 77 found them daunting. The lounge was dark and dreary. Clearly, the photographs of Moldy Warp Barn on Sykes website have been photo shopped because in no way whatsoever is it that bright and airy. It was a huge disappointment for my sister and I.

"What a wonderful stay we have had at mouldy wrap barn."
. it’s a unique and quirky building and just absolutely amazing.. it’s peaceful and tranquil and has a wonderful air of calm about it… we were blessed with the best weather for the week and the barn was a welcome from the hot heat outside the barn stayed lovely and cool while the weather was boiling … but at night the barn held the temperature well due the building being old (very old actually) it’s a beautiful build.. we had the most amazing time.. the barn has a small enclosed garden that the doggies loved, it also had its own private park that the kids took full advantage of during the evening because we spent most day out doing things… there was load to do and the owners Katie and Dave where amazing and so helpful the whole time, they where a fountain of knowledge about the area and things to do and we took every opportunity to do all the things they suggested, from Hebden bridge, eureka centre, piece museum and my favourite was definitely the steam train ride from Oxenhope various destinations. We would highly recommend this as a day trip .. Katie and Dave made the stay so magical for the kids they got to see puppies and dove babies and a sheep being sheared and they have memories that will last them a lifetime…. The barn has everything you could need to live for a week or two… it was comfortable the beds where amazingly comfortable … we had read the reviews about the stairs and although it’s probably not ideal for people with low mobility there are two down stairs bedrooms making it accessible for everyone I think… it’s been the best week we have had for a very long time, the area is amazing the barn was spectacular and the owners are friendly and helpful… they never stopped working the whole time we were there they are hard workers and still found time to advise us when we needed them to… shops are super close and there is nothing you can’t find it has everything… if you’re considering a nice break away we would recommend mouldy barn it was fantastic… getting out in the Yorkshire air is exactly what we needed… thanks both for the best stay.. we hope to return again.. xx
Awesome- thank you so much. It was a pleasure to have you stay xx Property Owner

"Great holiday home had the best time there."
Beds were comfy, owners were really friendly and lots to do/ walks around it.

"The barn was very warm and cosy which was very much appreciated, as during our stay in February the weather was extremely cold."
Everything we needed was provided and the beds were very comfy. The owners were genuinely kind and friendly and made us feel very welcome. The stairs up to the lounge were too steep to carry our very young child up and down, but would recommend the barn to families with older children. We enjoyed our stay at Moldy Warp Barn.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at Moldy Warp Barn."
The property is fun and quirky but also comfortable, and well equipped - plenty of cutlery and crockery etc, and we were particularly pleased to find a large-capacity coffee machine. The parking space provided is close by; with the option of driving up to the door for loading and unloading. We had young visitors who appreciated the swings and were thrilled to be introduced to a sweet sheepdog puppy. A lovely cosy retreat for a January weekend.
Thank you so much. We are thrilled you had a wonderful weekend. Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay but we hadn’t appreciated how steep the steps to the first floor would be ."
This was problematic for our older parents . I think this needs to be made more obvious in the description.
Thank you so much for your feedback and I am glad you had a lovely stay. I am sorry that the stairs proved a bit steep for two of your party and have had a long discussion about them and feel the description and photos are adequate. We have tried to make the short ascent as easy as possible and have always had extra grab handles and anti-slip steps. We have put two settees and a cushioned window seat downstairs for extra comfort. The property is over 1000 years old and as such the beams and flagged floors give it an interesting , quirky character which, I am sure you would agree, overall makes it all worthwhile in this unique property.

"Oct 22 - We stayed a week at Mouldy Warp Barn and had a fantastic time."
The children aged 3, 8, 11 years all enjoyed running outside on walks to Penistone Moors where they climbed rocks and we came across a van selling hot chocolate and homemade brownies. We also walked to Oxenhope Park and took a football. We spent time playing board games and watched a film on a evening having snacks. The games room and park were excellent (kids loved it) and didn't want to go home at the end of the week. The owners were lovely and friendly and went out of their way to ensure we had a lovely stay and the barn was very clean. They let the children watch their dog round up the sheep, hold a puppy and stroke the goat. Puddy the cat came to say hello in a morning outside which my 3 year old niece got so excited about and now wants a kitten. Mouldy Barn took us back to our childhood when life was about going on walks, running in fields and spending quality time as a family together. Thank you for the welcoming pack on arrival.
Thank you- so lovely to read this Property Owner

Countryside location and very charming. Family of five really enjoyed our stay. Well equipped house with full kitchen. Great family/TV/games room on second floor. Footpaths right by the house and very close to Bronte Parsonage.
Thank you Property Owner

"A very quirky presented barn with loads of history, had everything you needed for your stay."
Walks abundant nearby. Haworth 2 minutes in the car and K.W.V.R. nearby in Oxenhope. We never got to use the top floor due to steep steps and our mobility which was a shame. The owner was lovely and very informative would definitely recommend Moldy Warp Barn.
Thank you Property Owner

"My family and I had a lovely week staying at the Moldy warp barn."
The barn had all the facilities you would need. It was very clean and quirky. The one draw back would be the stairs to the living room and upstairs bedroom which are very steep, although you do get used to them. David and Kate are lovely hosts, they are very helpful and friendly. They also produce their very own honey, which I highly recommend purchasing a jar . We were sad to leave , so would definitely go back to stay again .
Thank you. We look forward to seeing you all again. Property Owner

"Weather was awful, snow, wind, rain, but just added to the adventurous Yorkshire experience at the Barn."
Host, Katie, made us feel very welcome and shared some interesting local history. We really enjoyed our stay and found Moldy Warp (relates to moles!) quirky and homely. Good base for lots of interesting and lovely places to visit. Muddy because of weather, bring your wellies or walking shoes. It is a working farm. Many thanks to Katie and Dave for your hospitality, Sue, Steve and family x

"My wife and daughter and my dog and I had 5 nights at Moldy Warp Barn in the run up to Halloween 2021."
We were looking for a rustic getaway, walks on the moors, dramatic scenery and a warm comfy home for family evening relaxation. Moldy Warp Barn offers all of this with tons of charm thrown in for good measure. Our hosts were friendly and helpful with a few interesting tales to tell of the local area and greeted us with local honey, wine and Yorkshire Parkin. The barn itself has all the modern conveniences we needed including a solid Wi-Fi connection. Thick walls and flagstone floors, steep staircases, beamed ceilings and wood panelling all added to the sense of authentic, rural charm. Our days were spent exploring the world of the Bronte sisters, seeking out dramatic waterfalls or pottering through the beautiful local towns with great local pubs. Our evenings playing board games, cards or even watching a little TV in the grand high-beamed living room. If you like walking, adventure, history and culture, this hideaway in the Yorkshire Dales is a wonderful retreat any time of the year.

"Lovely property and welcoming owners"

"This is our second time staying at Mouldy Warp Barn."
Our children have absolutely fallen in love with the experience Mouldy Warp Barn provides. Sitting within yards of a working small farm. Katie and Dave are tremendously kind and caring hosts. They are full of local knowledge with fabulous suggestions about all sorts of activities. They spent hours entertaining us with the going ons around the farm. Dogs, goats, sheep, geese. There are few things that can beat watching a sheep dog round up sheep. With lots of walks from the door with beautiful views everywhere you look. The barn is simply delightful, with character that only 1000 years can mould. The games room provided a cozy escape for our children and a bit of peace for us! We cannot speak highly enough of our amazing holidays there. We cannot wait for our next visit!
-
"Had a wonderful stay at the cottage, as usual though the week went too quickly."
The owners are extremely friendly and helpful, we would definitely book again. Plenty of walks from the door to take the dogs on. The fresh honey is beautiful. Thank you for a lovely welcome and a great stay. The Stone Family.

"This property was not listed with mobility issues as we were unable to access ..."
This property was not listed with mobility issues as we were unable to access 1st floor as stairs/ladder did not have top step to floor level, cannot see how this passed building regulations or your inspection, my wife has Rhuematoid and Osteo Arthritis also two knee replacements and I have mobility issues, We had to stay downstairs where there was no comfort just a table and hard chairs, the view from the front window was awful and the so called garden was just a strip of grass and shingle with a sign that said do not let your dogs foul on here so where are they supposed to go also it was accessed from outside the property, overall very poor, The towels were hard and rough it also advertised Sky tv but there was none only out of date receivers with no viewing card, we left on the Monday after two days and went home my daughter stayed with her family for the rest of the holiday, they had no issues with access
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are so sorry to hear encountered difficulties going upstairs. We do have several images of the stairs within the property on the website and an additional note to advise to take care on the open tread stairs. The property is over 1000 years old and we have tried to preserve this as much as possible. We advise that you do not allow your dog to foul on the grass outside the property as children play here. The property does include Sky TV, however it is not the full package so you do not have access to sky sports for example. Had we been made of these issues at the time of your stay, we would have looked to rectify these for you to make your stay more comfortable. Take care and Stay Safe! Property Owner

"Owner Fiona was very nice and helpful with lots of knowledge of surrounding area."
We had a excellent weeks holiday. The barn was well equipped with essential things needed. The barn was different and unique. it was a little cold , but the floors are all stone and the weather was changeable, even though it was June, that's great British weather of course. It would have been good if there had been a second comfortable chair in the downstairs dinning area, for watching TV.
-
"Just returned from a fab week at the barn."
Katie and Dave are the best hosts and made our stay unforgettable. They were always there to help and kept our children entertained throughout the week. The Krystal chicken memory will make us laugh forever. The barn is lovely and cosy we loved every minute. The local area is so picturesque and we had lots of long walks. Local pubs and shops all in walking distance. We will return, thank you again Katie and Dave

"We had a fantastic time."
The owners Kate and Dave were helpful and very kind. We had a great holiday and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

"The lounge on the 1st floor is a lovely space and we had a great evening playing board games there."
The dining room which is on the ground floor is the heart of the space. If anything the kitchen is a little small but it has good knives, which is a rare treat in a rental cottage! All in all a great time was had. Thank you

"We’ve just returned from a weeks stay in this beautiful converted barn."
We were made to feel so welcome by Katie and David. The small welcome basket of goodies was a lovely touch. There are some lovely walks around the area as well as some great pubs to relax and eat in. We shall certainly be back again.
-
"The holiday cottage was absolutely fantastic, we had a great time the owners were really friendly and helpful nothing was too much trouble."
The location is really picturesque with lots of well signposted footpaths nearby. The mile walk to the pub shop was idyllic. Thank you again for a lovely stay it was just what we needed. We will be back... Sykes - having now read some of your reviews of your treatment towards your customers during lockdown, I'm not sure I would book via you again.

"Wow , what a beautiful little place."
Our family of 5 had the most amazing time in this old barn . Hosts Dave and Katy were so welcoming warm and friendly . Nothing was too much trouble. Dave taught us to drive the tractor and shared some of his farming stories . Katy was always on hand to check if we needed anything . We didn't because the Barn had everything we needed . So quaint and unique . Gorgeous big beds , comfy with lovely fabrics. You must purchase some of Katey and Dave's hunny and fresh eggs . Delicious . We are all completely chilled and relaxed . Enjoyed the surrounding walks with our dog . Being greeted first thing in the morning by the cows was s joy . Proper farm life experience . Just wonderful ! Very clean , plenty of towels . Utensils , even a slow cooker !! Massive tv and soft lighting . If you want a unique experience this original monks barn is the place to stay . Would defiantly return

"Katie and David are wonderful hosts."
Moldy WarpBarn is so much more than a barn -- its an experience, and a b.....y good one. There are nooks and crannies to explore, theres always something to discover. The beds are comfortable and large. Two highchairs for a 21/2 and a 1 year old very much appreciated. Two cots and room to move. The games area at the top ofthe barn proved an exciting destination. Overall an exceptional holiday accomodation. When we are next in the area this will be our first choice to look to stay.

The small village of Haworth was home to the famous Bronte sisters, who were inspired by the surrounding moorland to pen their novels, which have become classics of English Literature. Haworth is a village that time almost forgot, with its myriad of curiosity and antique shops, alleyways and cobbled streets creating a wonderful period atmosphere, all set against a framing backdrop of countryside famously described in the novel Wuthering Heights as wild, rugged and barren. Nearby, the famous Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, an authentic steam railway brought to prominence in the film The Railway Children, provides a lovely day out with a regular service to the old village of Oxenhope. The area abounds with popular places to visit, including the Bronte Parsonage Museum, East Riddlesden Hall, and the National Railway Museum in York. The market town of Skipton, often fondly regarded as the Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, is just a short drive away, and also within reach are elegant Harrogate and vibrant Leeds and Manchester.
