Nestled within the majestic countryside of West Yorkshire, is the endearing, stone-built cottage, 1 Horsehold Cottage. Resting within striking distance of rugged landscapes, wooded valleys, pretty towns and a magnitude of Brontë attractions, this wonderful base promises a refreshing getaway for couple or a family seeking to experience this area of Yorkshire. Rest your muddy walking boots within the welcoming porch before stepping into a real home-from-home sitting room, housing everything you could possibly need. You and your loved ones can look forward to sinking into to plush sofas which rests in front of the roaring woodburning stove and the traditional exposed beams which fill the room with charm. Fulfilling your culinary needs is the well-equipped kitchen, where you can cook yourselves a delicious evening meal whilst taking in the breath-taking views of the surrounding countryside. After an action packed day exploring, choose to indulge with a warming soak within the bath tub before drifting off to sleep within one of the well-presented bedrooms, comprising of a super-king-size bedroom and a twin bedroom. During the warmer months, spend a moment or two within the rear garden, where you and your loved ones can soak up the surroundings with a refreshing drink in hand, whilst your canine companion stretches his legs on the lawn area. If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic spot, venture to the wonderful town of Hebden Bridge, where you will be delighted by the choice of pubs, cafes and restaurants on offer, in addition to a selection of shops for picking up the essentials. For those feeling active, you will be delighted to find the National Trust Hardcastle Crags and the Pennine Way close by. Alternatively, brush up on the local history by venturing to Haworth where the Parsonage Museum commemorates the famous Bronte family who once lived there, or head over to Skipton for Skipton Castle and Bolton Abbey, both worth a visit and only a short drive away. With plenty to do and a beautiful cottage base in which to relax, what more could you want from a Yorkshire-bound holiday?
