"A cosy cottage with great views."
The log fire was lovely. The owners communication was excellent. The description was very accurate, steep steps, low ceiling on the stairs etc. The stair bannister at the top is loose and needs urgent attention to avoid injury.
A few little tips would help future visitors. New mattresses and pans are needed. A fire resistant glove to open the fire door more easily would be safer than using tools, tea towels or oven gloves.
I never got tired at looking at the views
from the cottage and it was very quiet. It gave me a very restful stay. It's in a great place for visiting lots of surrounding
villages. Thank you for a lovely stay.

"The cottage was amazing."
It was lovely to be able to stay in a weavers cottage, exploring the local area and further afield and catching up with a close friend. Will definitely book again.
Thank you Sharon - you and your family are welcome back anytime. And thanks so much for leaving the cottage in such a superb condition :-)

"Lovely spotlessly clean cottage with absolutely fantastic views from the living room and 2 main bedrooms."
The galley style kitchen has everything you need but is very narrow and as explained clearly in the description the cottage has very steep stairs from the upper level, to the living areas.... but these are historic quirks of this lovely cottage.
Nearby there is a co-op and a lovely Indian Restaurant (Haveli) within easy walking distance, and places like Halifax with its beautiful Piece Hall, Hebden Bridge aren't very far away
Thank you Kevin - the cottage is certainly well situated for so many great West Yorkshire places to explore. Appreciate your lovely feedback!

"Lovely cottage with lots of original quirky features in a very picturesque setting."
The view from the cottage was stunning. The cottage has everything you need to enjoy your stay. The neighbours were very friendly. A few minutes walk from the cottage is a coop and a very lovely Indian restaurant and take away.
Chris and Ian were very helpful. The guide book in the cottage had lots of places to eat, shop and visit, all worth a look. A lovely place to stay.
Thank you Emma! We're so pleased that you enjoyed the cottage and our village. Appreciate this very much.

"The cottage was comfortable and homely with stunning views from all front windows, which was a fantastic feature."
We loved the history of cottage and location was good for local sight seeing. We had a problem putting the hob on but the owners were very helpful and happy to answer a quick email. To not bother them suggest a couple of notes in the cottage folder as IKEA instruction booklet wasn’t very clear.
Glad you enjoyed your stay - and thanks for the positive feedback - we have included some some simple instructions on how to use the induction hob - thanks! :-)

"Extremely happy with the cosy accommodation - the log burner a definite bonus after a chilly day out."
Four generations stayed in comfort! The warm welcome from the owners, with all their advice and information about the cottage and beautiful area, gave us confidence before we even travelled that it was going to be special. Thank you Ian and Chris!

"The Cottage was very comfortable and the view from the Bedrooms was wonderful."
My husband struggled with the Stairs but we were warned by the owner beforehand so knew what to expect. It was really handy for Public Transport and nice places to visit and eat out in the area.

"Parking was an issue & holiday interrupted by Yorkshire water workers"
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that you felt parking was an issue and that you felt your holiday was interrupted by Yorkshire Water. Unfortunately all residents in the area were not pre-warned of the work needing to be carried out by the water company and the accompanying roadworks affecting the
parking were very much out of our control.
We are sorry for any inconvenience this caused you.
Kind regards

"Lovely cottage in a most wonderful setting."
Views from living room and bedrooms were just amazing. Golcar itself is a pretty place. Co-op very handy and on street parking never a problem to find. Lots of walking in and around village and also onto the moors and Peak District, of course.
We did communicate with Ian and Chris who were very helpful and approachable owners. They were very supportive when we had a problem with our car and seemed like genuinely nice people who love their cottage.

"Ginnel corner has great walks from the doorstep via intriguing ginnels that bring history to life ."
Through woodland to canal banks you can get to slaithwaite and other interesting towns beyond.
The cottage had all facilities we needed, be aware the steps to the kitchen and lounge are steep with low head clearance.
The double rooms were clean and spacious with fab views but they were very light from early on so light sleepers like myself may need portable blackout blind or eye mask for a holiday lie-in !
We were happy with our stay and would recommend to friends and family .

"Ginnel Corner is a character, cosy cottage."
We found it warm and comfortable and everything we needed for a weeks stay was provided.
The views from the cottage across the valley are stunning and the cottage is very quiet even though it is in the heart of Golcar. There is a Co-op, a butcher's, a post office and a pub and restaurant within a couple of minutes walk. In addition there's an excellent farm shop (Bolster Moor) within a few minutes drive.
We found the kitchen rather small as we prefer to buy local produce and cook rather than eating out, but it was adequate for a weeks stay and was reasonably well equipped.
You can park on the roadside outside the cottage but there are steps down to the cottage so loading/ unloading the car is a bit of a chore - especially as we arrived in snow!
We enjoyed our stay in Ginnel Corner and would recommend it.

"The Sykes booking was simple and efficient."
The owners replied to our questions and gave suggestions on the area. On entering the quaint, historical weavers cottage built in the 1830's we thought Wow! The cottage was big enough for our party(six adults). The views were out of this world. It made us relax and chill immediately. The owners had thought of everything from advice on the local area in Golcar and further afield. The array of walks are superb. The owners thought of all the little things to begin our short break. The cottage was exceptionally clean, well loved over time and prepared for guests to a extremely high standard. The stairs are steep and therefore I would not recommend for the older generation. My daughter was impressed by the piano and my son the array of pubs close by. We all would recommend this cottage. A gem of a find in the Colne valley(age range between 24 and 55yrs).

"The property was very well kept."
It is perfectly located. It is very close to a bus stop which takes direct to Huddersfield town Centre. The property offers all the basic needs of a family away from home and that makes a huge difference. The owners (Ian and Christina) were also very friendly which makes life very easy. They are also available at all time to discuss any requirement you may have.
We will definitely consider staying at the cottage another time.
