Description

(Reference number: 141195) Originally built in the mid-17th century, this striking farmhouse was subsequently acquired by the wealthy Wainhouse family and split into five cottages to house their dyers. The current host's family has lived in this cottage for two-and-a-half centuries and — save for some modern gizmos in the kitchen and a pristine white bathroom — the space hasn't changed all too much in that time. The ceiling beams, exposed stone walls and original doors remain, while the gas-fired cast iron stove in the inglenook fireplace is a fitting addition given the history. There's a lovely flower-filled garden at the front of the property, which might seem odd until you realise that it's south-facing and receives plenty of sunshine — when it decides to make an appearance in this corner of Yorkshire. When it does, there's a whole lot to see and do nearby, including countless historic sights, such as Wainhouse Tower on the Wainhouse Heritage Trail four minutes' walk away, and Shibden Hall reached in just under an hour on foot. Alternatively, the charming town of Hebden Bridge takes around a quarter of an hour to reach in the car and the Peak District starts half an hour's drive from your front door. Home truths: *The host might allow a dog to stay, but this is only after an initial discussion and will come at an additional fee *The king-size bed can be arranged as twins if preferred *There's a sofa-bed that can accommodate a third guest, although this must be requested beforehand and will come at an additional cost of £15 per night — the maximum occupancy is three adults and a baby *A travel cot, baby bath seat, high chair, changing mat and childrens’ books and toys can be provided *There's free on-street parking available *Due to the age, some of the doors are low and the staircases can be steep, so it might not be suitable for guests with reduced mobility Thinking of selling?
