"A beautiful cottage set in amazing scenery."
The cottage contained everything required for a pleasant holiday. It was immaculately cleaned and the owner could not be more helpful with complementary arrival products and much much more. What a little gem and the price made it the best value we have had with Sykes cottages. With Jeremy the owner living close by and calling to see us before we left was a nice touch. Will definitely be returning. Thanks for everything.
Thank you Alan for your amazing feedback - it means so much to know that guests have genuinely enjoyed their stay and fully appreciated the holiday cottage and the effort that goes with it. Hope to see you return soon, lovely to meet you both. Best wishes, Jeremy Property Owner

"Bowshaw was a clean, comfortable, relaxing base with all the amenities you would need for your stay."
The property had easy access to explore the surrounding areas. The host was easily accessible and friendly. View from windows was a bonus. We would recommend a stay to anyone wanting the above.
G'day Ray, very happy you enjoyed your stay in picturesque Hade Edge. Hope the remainder of your trip around the UK is as enjoyable and safe trip back to Australia. Best wishes Jeremy Property Owner

"Lovely cottage on the edge of the Peak District."
The house was comfortable with considered facilities. Met our needs for a short break away from it all. The property owner was incredibly helpful and a great host, leaving milk and tea/coffee and biscuits for us on arrival. Good information on local area and recommendations. Feedback would be upgrade of pillows and a mirror in the spare room and perhaps a few coat hangers. Otherwise everything was perfect.
Hi Dana, so pleased you and your sister enjoyed your stay and found everything to your liking. Thank you so much for constructive and positive feedback. Pillows, mirror and hangers are on the shopping list. Property Owner

Bowshaw is a lovely, peaceful, comfortable cottage in a beautiful area with some wonderful local walks and near to the small town of Holmfirth. The cottage has had everything we needed and the owner has been very helpful. Highly recommended

"What an absolute gem!"
We stayed for a couple of days in total comfort. The cottage is wonderfully quiet, clean, airy and light with lovely views over the local area and is really thoughtfully and well equipped. The owner also left it well stocked with essentials for our stay. It even comes with a superb pub just a short walk away. What’s not to like? Definitely recommended and would happily book again
Thank you for your feedback. Really happy you enjoyed your stay in the Holme Valley. Property Owner

"Very nice. Just outside Holmfirth but within easy reach- a couple of miles maybe - and only a few minutes walk from the pub."
All the facilities in good condition. Parking is right outside for anyone driving a rationally-propotioned vehicle. No regrets about choosing to stay here.

The property
Located on the outskirts of Hade Edge in West Yorkshire is Bowshaw, a well-presented, two-bedroom home.
Enjoying views over Boshaw Whams Reservoir and the rolling hills of the Peak District National Park, Bowshaw offers a contemporary base for a couple or a family of three, looking to explore the delights of the region.
Be welcomed by an off-road parking space, before travelling through the enclosed garden, up the external steps and into the entrance porch.
Step into the stylish, open-plan living space, where you can unwind with the Smart TV for entertainment, rustle up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen, and dine around the handy breakfast bar.
If the weather allows, spend some time outside in the enclosed garden, where you can bask in the sunshine and toast to your break, before sloping off to sleep in one of two bedrooms on offer; select between a double and a single, both serviced by a sleek bathroom.
Enjoy either a bath or a refreshing shower before kickstarting your itinerary, finding all the essentials in Hade Edge.
Traverse through the national park, reaching the pretty landscape of Winscar Reservoir, climb up to Holme Moss Summit, or follow the hiking trail of Black Hill, before planning your route north towards Folly Dolly Falls, enveloped by woodland walks.
The small hamlet of Holmfirth made famous by the hit TV series 'Last of the Summer Wine,' and the northern outskirts of the Peak District are nearby, making it an interesting destination for a relaxing walking break.
Holmfirth is home to restaurants, shops, and the Last of the Summer Wine Exhibition.
