"Lovely homely cottage - perfect."
-
"Wasn’t expecting it to be so narrow on the drive to the house."
Feel like this should be a bit clearer. Didn’t spoil our visit.
-
"Fantastic cottage with a warm and welcoming feel."
The owners have done a superb job equipping it with everything you need. The location is great too with a parking space for the cottage itself. We actually didn't move the car all week, and found some wonderful walks as well as being close to Holmfirth itself. We highly recommend Bramble cottage, and can't wait to revisit.
-
"We had a wonderful time at this lovely cottage, a lovely walk ( quite steep) into the village , and excellent hiking from the door."

"Lovely cottage ."
Perfectly described and beautifully clean. Very comfortable and homey. The views were amazing from all windows just a bit of a climb to get there is all. No problem with parking as the cottage has its own parking spot The owners were great and couldn’t do enough to help . Would highly recommend.

"Great cottage with everything you need but be aware on a very steep incline but with stunning views"
-
"Lovely property well presented n maintained"
-
"Lovely little cottage."
All the essentials provided for a comfortable stay.Parking space is quite tight so if you have a large car or campervan you would be better parking down the hill on the main road.

"Beautiful cottage, lots of great walks really friendly people would definitely recommend a stay here"
-
"We had a fantastic week in Bramble Cottage ."
It is a warm and cosy little gem tucked away on the hillside with great views over the Holme Valley. The cottage is very clean and comfortable and well equipped. Great walks from the door and also a regular bus service nearby so we didn’t need to use the car all week. We highly recommend Bramble Cottage. Thankyou to Katie and Mark for a memorable week and we look forward to returning again soon .
Thank you for the lovely feedback and so pleased you enjoyed your stay. You are welcome back any time! Property Owner

"Bramble Cottage in Holmfirth is a fabulous place to stay."
It is clean, comfortable, spacious and well equipped. Hosts are very friendly and helpful. It is an absolute luxury to access so many gorgeous walks from the doorstep, we parked up and never moved the car until it was time to leave. There are lots of great places to eat in Holmfirth, also easy walking distance. We would certainly stay there again. Patricia Flannery
We are really pleased you enjoyed your stay and you would be welcome back any time. Thank you :) Property Owner

"We had a really lovely stay at Bramble cottage after Christmas."
The cottage is warm, comfortable and homely and had everything we needed. We're still talking about how nice of a stay it was and have recommended it to our parents.

"Excellent all round, could not fault it."
Owners communicated in a friendly way without being overbearing. Very disappointed they couldn’t stop it raining for us
Wish we could stop the rain! Thank you for the review Property Owner

"We enjoyed our stay at Bramble cottage, it was very clean and well furnished with everything we needed."
Excellent views over the valley from the cottage, we also enjoyed walking the narrow lanes in the area.

"Highly recommended !"
!! Beautiful cottage, well equipped and in a quiet setting. A home from home .Within a 15-20 min walk from the centre of Malham. Had a lovely walk to the Carding Shed ☕️

"Absolutely loved our stay."
Cottage was beautiful and cosy and so quiet. Views and walks were amazing! Eddie my standard poodle loved it too, maybe a bit hilly for him as he's getting on a bit now as am I

"A lovely cottage, spotlessly clean and comfortable, and very well equipped."
-
"Perfect little cottage in a lovely area."
-
"Lovely cottage in a really nice location."
Very comfortable with everything we needed.Very friendly owners nearby.
-
"Replace the bench outside for two foldable gardenchairs so you can fully enjoy the view from the property."
Emphasis on the very steep way up to the property and steep parking.
-
"We all had a wonderful week at the Bramble cottage including our pets Simmy and Charlie, it was very comfortable, but please be aware that the parking spot by the cottage is on a slope and would not take a large vehicle i."
E. people carrier or bigger. If anyone is a last of the Summer Wine fan, the tour is a must, it was really good. We spent most evenings in the Shoulder of Mutton which is a lovely little pub, the landlord is very friendly, welcoming and so are the regulars, they don't do food, but there are plenty of other places in Holmfirth that do.
-
"We had a great stay and the owners who live next door were on hand if needed."
Both were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The accomodation was fantastic, very clean and very tidy and everything we needed for our stay. The hill was a little steep but nothing we couldn't handle Thank you to Katie and Mark. We would definitely look at staying at Bramble again.
-
"The cottage has been renovated to a very good standard whilst retaining its traditional features."
The owners we friendly and helpful. Holmfirth is a lovely location and perfectly located for trips around the area.
-
"Really friendly owners and the cottage is modern and clean whilst retaining some delightful original charm to it."
We also loved the friendly atmosphere in the town and the great choice of pubs, cafes and restaurants. The walks in the area didn't disappoint either - I've now got stacks of photos to edit of the local wildlife and dramatic vistas.
-

"Thank you for a lovely peaceful cosy stay at Bramble Cottage."
The cottage had everything you could want and was very clean and comfortable. The view from the cottage is breathtaking. We had one small glitch with the hot water which was sorted by Mark quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend this cottage to everyone for the location, views and attention to detail by the friendly owners Mark and Katie. We'll be returning as soon as we can.
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, the feedback is much appreciated. Thank you for leaving it so clean and tidy and we hope to see you again soon. Property Owner

Well located to walk into Holmfirth in 10 minutes. Faultless.

"We enjoyed a wonderful week at Bramble Cottage."
The cottage was beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean with everything you could wish for to enable you to have a wonderful stay. The views from the lounge and bedroom windows were amazing and walks from the cottage were enjoyed by both of us and our dog. The town of Holmfirth was a a short walk away and we enjoyed some delicious local meals. The owners, Mark and Katie were very friendly and helpful.
-
"Our 4th stay at Bramble Cottage."
Beautiful cottage , well appointed and spotlessly clean as always . Fantastic walking from the doorstep it’s beautiful .

Fabulous location, will be booking again.
-
"A beautiful cottage!"
Warm, welcoming, clean and cosy. We had a lovely few days
-
"A lovely cottage!"
We had a relaxing time, despite the torrential rain-clean and cosy. Good walking distance to pubs and restaurants, but quite hilly so may not be ideal for everyone. Listing says cottage has smart tv, but only basic freeview available, which wouldn’t normally be an issue, apart from the weather meant we were inside a bit more than we intended to be. Overall, a relaxing stay.
-
"Five night stay in Bramble Cottage."
Warm, comfortable, clean, cosy and homely. The weather didn't do us any favours and the hills are a bit of a struggle for someone of my advanced years with arthritic knees, but I wouldn't hesitate to book again if we go back to Holmfirth.
-
"Absolutely 5-star accommodation very very clean had a lovely week had some nice ..."
Absolutely 5-star accommodation very very clean had a lovely week had some nice weather for exploring I would highly recommend bramble cottage
-
"Beautiful cottage, with lots of character."
Amazing town and surrounding area. I wish we could stay longer. Will definitely return to Holmfirth again in the summer to take advantage of the walks and sunsets but this was a perfect winter holiday, we were wry lucky to wake up to lots of snow on our first morning and made for a perfect getaway. The cottage had everything we needed, was lovely and warm and very well furnished. I would definitely recommend. Mark and the locals scrapped all the footpaths and drives which was very kind. I would only suggest a foot-stall for two in the lounge and maybe an upgrade to the tv remotes as they are both a bit knackered.
-
"Our 3rd stay at Bramble cottage and just as lovely as before."
Very warm and comfortable and well equipped. Katie and Mark live next door and are available should you need anything, we had a problem with the hot water and it was sorted the same day which was great. The cottage was spotlessly clean . Love this cottage and will return .
-
"A lovely stay at Bramble cottage and found some lovely walks."
-
"We’ve just had a wonderful week staying at Bramble Cottage which is perfectly placed for walking and exploring."
The cottage is very well equipped with everything you would need should you want to avoid eating out. It is lovely and cosy and spotlessly clean. We will definitely be returning.
-
"The cottage is perfect."
Comfortable, clean, well-equipped, fabulous sunsets, walking distance to great pubs, cafes and restaurants. Great walks from the cottage.
-
"Beautiful, clean and comfortable cottage with lots to do in the local area."
-
"The cottage was one of the best we have stayed in."
Extremely comfortable and clean with fabulous views over the valley. Would definately recommend
-
"We have stayed at Bramble Cottage before and hope to visit again ."
Beautiful compact cottage in a fantastic area . Very dog friendly area and beautiful walks from the doorstep. The owners have thought of everything to make your stay very comfortable Warm and cosy cottage with a lovely bedroom and shower room . Parking is tight with a larger car but we found plenty of roadside parking just up from the cottage so wasn’t an issue for us . It is very hilly so probably not the best choice for elderly or infirm but that’s Holmfirth and the views are the reward
-
"The drive up to the cottage is quite steep didn’t bother us but older people might struggle with it."
Beautiful place and our hosts Katie and mark were great.
-
"We had a great stay at Bramble cottage and would not hesitate to recommend this property and also return ourselves in the future the place was spotless throughout and had all household requirements it was a perfect base to visit many areas of the Peak District and we enjoyed many fantastic walks with the dogs."
Many thanks Katie and Mark
-
"Bramble cottage definitely exceeded our expectations."
It was clean, cosy, and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The views from the cottage are very picturesque especially the sunsets. Holmfirth is beautiful but can get really busy andhere are a lot of walks very near by.
-
"The cottage was great."
On Booking.com the property was advertised as accepting a pet. The confirmation we received from Sykes had "Pet: no". When we tried to clarify this with Sykes we couldn't get through and they didn't reply to our e-mails. As it was necessary to be allowed to take out pet it was important we received a reply in order to make alternative arrangements if no pet was allowed. Eventually Booking.com intervened on our behalf but we were very disappointed with Sykes.
-
"Beautiful cottage, comfortable, spotlessly clean and very well appointed."
Elevated position with great views (weather permitting!) Wet cobbles can be tricky but all adds to the charm. Short but pleasant stay, managed to get in a couple of nice walks in, would recommend.
-
"Had a gorgeous weekend in a beautiful cottage and a perfect location!"
Will definitely be back to the area again!
-
"We have stayed at many Sykes Cottages,but without doubt this has to be at the top of the list Mark and Katie made us feel at home from the start and nothing was problem to them,when help was required."
Comfortable and cosey with everything you could ask for except a bath which would have been nice after doing some of the quite strenuous walks in the area but the shower was fine .Unlike the last property on Bute the views were stunning and the local area really interesting.Some people had mentioned difficulty in parking but after driving Mountain Rescue vehicles around the Lake DIistrict for over 40 years we soon got the hang of it.An exceptional property and one we would recommend to anyone although people with a disability may find access a little difficult ,a steep hill and cobbles to cope with.Thankyou Mark and Katie.

Immaculately clean & comfortable property in excellent condition equipt with everything you would need for a holiday Brilliant views 10 minute walk into Holmfirth best done by main road not so steep to walk back up Neighbours friendly Bit tight parking for a large car outside the property although there is alternative area at top of lane Would recommend
-
"Bramble cottage is a lovely little cottage in a beautiful spot, with great views."
It has everything you need to make a home from home, the furnishings are comfortable and very clean and the setting beautiful. The lovely setting on a hillside is great, but wont be for everyone, with very steep walks to anywhere, and very narrow steep roads, which take some getting used too, the cottage has a parking space,but its a bit awkward as is all driving around there.
-
"Bramble Cottage was perfect!"
Spotlessly clean, in a great location and had everything we needed for a comfortable and peaceful break.
-
"The house was more than perfect had everything we needed the couple who owns it ..."
The house was more than perfect had everything we needed the couple who owns it could not do enough to help we could not fault it at all
-
"Beautiful little cottage in a lovely location with spectacular views."
Spotlessly clean very comfortable and just as it looked on photos. The owners live next door and we’re friendly but unobtrusive. Parking is on the owners drive which could be an issue for larger vehicles but there are alternatives within walking distance . Very steep hills but worth it for the views . Holmfirth is a very friendly town with good selection of shops/pubs and eateries Dog friendly and excellent walking area
-
"Bramble Cottage was a perfect break away."
Katie and Mark provided everything needed. Thank you!
-
"What a lovely week enjoyed at Bramble Cottage."
It was just as good as the glowing reviews suggest; cosy, charming and spotlessly clean. There is everything provided that you could need, yet everything so neat and well-ordered. The location is great, with wonderful views over the valley, and an easy walk to and from town. Just a few minutes up the hill and there are stunning views to enjoy, and several nearby villages with walks (and pubs!) to enjoy. Communication with the owners was easy, professional and very friendly. Highly recommended!

"Beautiful cottage."
Perfect cosy romantic get away. The roads up to the cottage are very steep and bumpy so took a bit of getting use to but would happily holiday at Bramble Cottage again.
-
"The cottage was beautiful with fantastic views over the Holmfirth countryside."

"Lovely place in a great location"
-
"Bramble Cottage was lovely just very hilly but got used to it."
Lovely surroundings and views and not far from the centre of Holmfirth. Owners very friendly and helpful. Cottage very comfortable.
-
"Bramble Cottage should have a five star listing."
. It is perfect for a couple on holiday with their dog. so many cottages of this standard do not invite our four legged friends. Bramble Cottage was very clean and comfortable and restored by the owners to a very high standard but retained some lovely original features, we were made to feel very welcome. Parking was scary but you do really get used t it.! Thanks to Mark and Katie for a very enjoyable week.
-
"Excellent cottage lovely and cosy very hilly great if your out and about walking ..."
Excellent cottage lovely and cosy very hilly great if your out and about walking great places to eat out just be careful if you have large car as very tight little lanes people very friendly scenery fantastic
-
"The cottage was brilliant and spotless."
The owner made us very welcome. Bramble Cottage is in a great location with fantastic views over the valley. Just a short walk into holmfirth to enjoy the bar's, restaurants and cafes. If we return to holmfirth we would definitely choose Bramble Cottage. Our dog Alfie also gave it a paws up.
-
"We have just spent 1 week staying at Bramble Cottage, Holmfirth."
The cottage has been refurbished to an exceptionally high standard, and a great deal of thought has been put into the cottage by the owners, there is everything you need and more, and it would be hard to find a better cottage to stay in, in the U.K. The views from the cottage are stunning across the valley and rolling hills. This is the perfect place to stay as a base, and day trips to The Derbyshire Peaks, Haworth, Scarborough, York, Lancashire and the many reservoir walks close by are all very "do able" for a day out. Taking a four legged friend with you? no problem, they are welcomed. Sykes are a great company too, you can book online or by phone as we did, very welcoming, helpful and within a few minutes all was booked, 1st class customer service to them. Having recently retired we look forward to many more "Cottage experiences" with Sykes. We are sure that you will enjoy Bramble Cottage and Sykes as much as we have. Many thanks to you all. Jeremy and Carole.

About the location
HOLMFIRTH
Peak District National Park 3 miles; Meltham 4 miles
The old traditional Pennine town of Holmfirth is situated in the heart of the beautiful Holme Valley, on the edge of the West Yorkshire Pennines. Made famous by The Last of The Summer Wine TV series, there is more to Holmfirth than Compo and Nora Batty’s stockings! The ‘Picturedrome’, the North of England’s finest live music venue attracts many famous bands and is located right in the centre of the town. The pelotons from the Tour de France 2014 and the Tour de Yorkshire have both been through this quaint Holme Valley town en route to the iconic 524 metre Holme Moss climb two miles away. It is in these hills where cycling’s triple Olympic Medalist Ed Clancy grew up. Holmfirth also has a good public swimming pool and fitness centre, parks and some super shops and restaurants. The people here are friendly, the streets are quaint and the scenery is breathtaking. The Peak District National Park with its moors, dales, forests, lakes and reservoirs is also easily accessible. The Upper Derwent Valley, home to the spectacular Ladybower and Derwent reservoirs, and where the famous 617 ‘Dambusters’ Squadron practiced the audacious bombing raid on the Ruhr valley in 1943, is only a short scenic drive away. Slightly further is Chatsworth, the stately home of the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, and situated close to the market town of Bakewell, the home of Bakewell Puddings. The Yorkshire Sculpture Park, The National Coal Mining Museum, Wentworth Castle, and the Hepworth Gallery are also within short drives away and well worth a visit. For a spot of culture, Holmfirth has annual festivals with many more attractions that bring visitors back for more; such as the Folk, Arts, and Food & Drink Festivals. Also not to be missed, is Holmfirth Vineyard and Restaurant, where you can book wine tasting tours and enjoy a lovely meal in the restaurant.
