"The location of the property was brilliant."
A five minute walk took you into the centre of the marketplace and the view up river from the front of the house was spectacular. The property was spotlessly clean and included everything needed for a comfortable and pleasant stay. On site parking next to the property was also a big plus in this very popular and busy town. Natalie's communication was excellent both before and during our stay and her welcoming pack was the best we have ever received. We would not hesitate to recommend the property and would definitely return if visiting Hebden Bridge again.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We appreciate all the points you have highlighted and are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Avaelie House. We would welcome you back any time. Property Owner

"Natalie was excellent in her preparation and thoughtfulness for all the elements and contents needed in the property."
She provided so many extras, including items that you may need if arriving late in the evening! Altogether a really nice well appointed cottage in a brilliant quiet location and with parking, most important in Hebden Bridge.

The location is amazing being right by Hebden Water. The cottage itself is so clean and bright, it was a pleasure to come back to after a day's walking. It was very well equipped, and we really appreciated the groceries that awaited us on arrival. Many thanks for a lovely week in Hebden Bridge.

"Very comfortable property, with a parking space provided."
Natalie has thought of everything you may need for a brilliant stay. The location of the property is within very easy access to the town, a short walk and on the level. Easy to get to other local towns, by car. Communication with Natalie was spot on, very kind and very friendly. Would definitely stay here again when in the area. Thankyou Natalie.

"This is a great property with all that is needed for a holiday."
Everything was as described and the property was spotless. The bed is extremely comfortable. The only downside was that the shower is over the bath which isn't great at our age but there is a well placed hand rail which made it easy to get in and out of the shower. Lovely sun trap in the back garden to round off a day walking. Dedicated car parking seems to be essential in Hebden Bridge

"Avaelie House is a little gem, hidden at the end of a close just off the town centre."
We parked our car and walked past three or so other houses, each hidden by bushes. To the right was the river beneath some trees,it made a marvellously relaxing backdrop to our stay in what turned out to be a surprisingly hidden location. Inside, the house was clean, comfortable and well fitted. It made a lovely stay in a marvellous location.

"We really enjoyed our stay at Avaelie House."
The property was spotlessly clean and equipped with everything we could possibly need, with lots of attention to detail. When we had a slight problem Natalie was immediately available to sort it out. Highly recommended, and lovely to have the little river at the bottom of the garden!

"Avaelie is in a brilliant location, overlooking the weir on the Beck, yet being within easy walking distance of the town."
It’s really comfortable, both upstairs and down and is equipped with everything you could need for a self-catering holiday. Having direct contact with the owner by text was such a boon.

"This property is ideally situated in the heart of Hebden Bridge with easy access to the many country walking trails in the area (for those who are able!"
) and level access to the shops and pubs in the town (for those who prefer to take things a little easier) It also has a dedicated parking space - a real bonus in such a popular town!. The train station is also an easy walk away with a regular service to several popular destinations and has an excellent tearoom. The house itself was spotless throughout and was equipped to a high standard with everything you could possibly need, including super-fast broadband and a smart tv. The owner, Natalie, also provided some thoughtful welcome gifts and made it clear that she was near at hand should we require any help or assistance during our stay. Altogether, a perfect stay, made so by an owner who showed that she really wishes visitors to have a a true Yorkshire welcome. Mission accomplished!!

"Ideal location - we never expected to find anywhere so centrally situated with no hills to climb!"
The cottage was very clean, warm and comfortable, with lots of wecoming extra touches. Plenty of places to eat out, lovely walks and in easy reach of trains and buses, so no need to use a car. Really enjoyed our stay.

"This was a lovely place to stay."
Priorities for us are King Size Bed (which we are used to and hate being cramped by anything smaller), 2 comfortable sofas, warmth and a parking space. Avaelie House delivered. The location was better than we could ever hoped for - level access into close by town centre (steep hills in Yorkshire!), next to a small river. Enjoyed watching the heron fishing every morning and the sound of running water. Would suggest hand rails for getting in and out of the shower - could be rather slippy.

"Fabulous week in Hebden Bridge."
Avaelie House is ideally located as a base for exploring the numerous footpaths up the various valleys and beyond. Easy safe allocated parking and just a short walk to the town centre. The house itself has everything you need. A home from home for a memorable holiday.

"The cottage was truly lovely both in location and facilities."
The kitchen equipment and so on is more than sufficient and every comfort has been considered. The location is wonderful - right in the village. The waterside position is charming and the sound of the water running past the house is a delight we didn't expect. This cottage is a real gem; the owner has thought of everything.

The property
Nestled amongst trees in a secluded location in the centre of the vibrant market town Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire is Avaelie House.
This wonderful, terraced, stone-fronted cottage boasts an excellent riverside location with views over the flowing Hebden River which creates tranquil surroundings; you wouldn’t even realise you are in the town's centre!
This cottage also boasts an allocated parking space which is like gold dust in this bustling town, it also welcomes up to four guests in two spacious bedrooms making it ideal for couples, friends or families looking to explore West Yorkshire.
After exploring the town’s attractions, cross the threshold into the living area where the electric fire creates a warm and homely atmosphere, settle into one of the plush sofas and flick on the Smart TV and peruse the films available on Netflix.
Stay snuggled up while the designated chef heads to the fully-equipped kitchen to prepare a hearty meal that the whole group can enjoy at the dining table; tuck in and toast your getaway with a glass of wine.
Later in the evening, step outside to soak up the last of the sun in the private patio or take a leisurely stroll along the riverside to be soothed by the sounds of flowing water.
When sleep calls, retire to either the king or double room, both are furnished with storage for your belongings and are serviced by a sleek bathroom.
Rest up for another fun-filled day in Hebden Bridge.
Avaelie House lies just a short walk from the town’s centre where you can visit the local stores to ease your self-catered stay or visit White Lion or Old Gate Bar and Restaurant for some well-earned traditional pub fare or celebratory drinks.
The centre is also home to St George’s Square and the 500 year old pack horse bridge with the wavy steps and riverside walk and of course the ducks!
There is also The Trades Club, a well established venue for touring bands, be sure to get your tickets early.
There is also Picture House which is one of the last independent cinemas in the country.
For walkers there is spectacular scenery in all directions, with many hidden gems to discover, and for those who prefer to avoid the steep climbs there is the Hebden Beck which flows into the River Calder half a mile downstream.
There is a vibrant arts scene and throughout the year there are various festivals including arts, burlesque and folk.
National Trust owned Hardcastle Crags and Gibson Mill are worth a visit, especially when the Blue Pig is open, or climb the steep cobbled road to historic Heptonstall with the ruins of a mediaeval church and the graveyard where Sylvia Plath is buried.
Ted Hughes’ family lived here for generations and much of his poetry was inspired by the area.
Continue the literary theme in Haworth, home to the Bronte sisters with the Parsonage museum and a statue immortalising the sisters and their contribution to literature.
Halifax boasts the Grade I Georgian Piece Hall where hand loom weavers went to sell the “pieces” they produced, or take the kids to Eureka, the children’s interactive museum which is nearby.
Choose Avaelie House as the base for a truly memorable getaway to West Yorkshire.
