  • "Lovely warm and cosy cottage with everything we needed, especially as it was cold and damp."

    Really comfortable bed and crisp bedding, which is a must after being out all day. Appreciated welcoming package, especially from Tilly. Myra and Ben very welcoming and helpful, nothing too much trouble, lovely family. Nice area of Yorkshire, friendly people and very dog friendly cafes.

    Thank you Jackie, it was such a pleasure having you stay, and Tilly was an absolute delight! Hope you will visit us again in the future. Property Owner

  • "This was our first proper winter and Christmas Break away from Kent."

    And I am delighted to report that our stay at NI Cottage was wonderful. And we would stay again. For our needs it was perfect. Despite howling winds and snow dusting the surrounding countryside. We stayed effortlessly warm and snug in the cosy enclave of this cottage. The walls being constructed of stone and 2 feet thick and double glazing all around. You could not hear the howling wind. All facilities for a home from home experience were in place, cosy and characterful in this listed property. The location is perfectly placed in the hills outside of the picturesque villages of Haworth (15 min walk) and Oxenhope. With excellent choices of watering holes and restaurants. And within earshot and view of the local Heritage Steam Railway. Which was very busy with Elf and Santa Express excursions. To hear the iconic sounds and sights of a Steam Train chugging and puffing it's way through the valley was a delightful backdrop to the peace and quiet of this location during our stay! We cannot recommend this location enough. It suited us as we like to explore and walk, and partake of the local offerings of real ale and good local food. We cannot recommend the Steam Packet Brewery in Haworth enough. To be able to then retreat to the peace and quiet of the cottage was great. The owners lived on site, next door in an enviable traditional stone historic farmhouse and were on hand to check in with us to see if everything was OK. If you are the type of people who are looking for a quiet cosy retreat. Are happy keeping your own company and don't need all the bells and whistles of a busy resort location on your doorstep. Then this is the place for you.

With countryside views, an open-plan layout, and a Smart TV, this pet-friendly haven offers off-road parking and is conveniently located near a shop and pub, perfect for small families or friends.

Venture down a secluded lane to discover your home away from home, where the peaceful countryside greets you.

Nestled beside open fields, this serene haven invites you to unwind and savour the simple beauty of nature.

Inside North Ives Cottage, you'll be welcomed by the open-plan area, a harmonious blend of the kitchen, dining room, and sitting room.

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook up a storm, which can be enjoyed at the dining table set for three.

After a day of countryside adventures, retire to the sitting room, where you can snuggle up with your loved ones in front of the Smart TV and electric fire, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for those chillier evenings.

When it's time to rest, the cottage offers two well-presented bedrooms, a double and a single, both providing a serene retreat after a day of exploration.

Delight in the intriguing history and literary heritage that awaits you on your doorstep in Oxenhope and nearby Haworth; begin with a tour of the home of the Brontë sisters at the Brontë Parsonage Museum or take an enchanting heritage journey on the steam train from Oxenhope Station, part of the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway, before a relaxing afternoon stroll in Central Park, Haworth.

Choose to dine out at the local hospitality establishments; enjoy the inviting, traditional setting at The Fleece Inn or embrace the stylish, eclectic atmosphere at The Hawthorn.

Cash in your train ticket in Keighley to explore the historic Cliffe Castle, then wander over to a beautiful, cobbled town in Italy via the Ponte Vecchio restaurant, tantalising your taste buds with Mediterranean delicacies.

Further afield is the picturesque Yorkshire Dales National Park just waiting to be explored, whether you take on a hike, stop for a picnic, or enjoy some watersports.

Where you’ll be staying

OXENHOPE

Haworth 2 miles; Hebden Bridge 6 miles; Skipton 14 miles.

The small village of Oxenhope lies amid wonderful scenery, and offers the chance to take advantage of the multitude of walks in the area. The village, with its shop, church and pubs, is home to the terminus for the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, an authentic steam railway brought to prominence in the film The Railway Children, which runs on a regular basis to Haworth and on down to Keighley. The area was made famous by the Brontë sisters, and the outstanding countryside was famously described in Emily Brontë’s novel Wuthering Heights as wild and rugged. The area abounds with popular places to visit; the charming village of Haworth, trendy Hebden Bridge, historic Halifax and its Piece Hall, the Museum of Rail and several National Trust properties. The market town of Skipton, known as the Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, is only a short drive away, and also within reach are elegant Harrogate and vibrant Leeds.
