  Amazing property and people!

  What an amazing place almost magical, my children were ready to move in! Everything you needed was at the barn, I took tea towels, washing up liquid, sponges and dog bowls etc but it was so well equipped I needn't of bothered. Katie and David have thought of everything! On entering the property on arrival there was a basket on the table with fresh eggs from the farm, biscuits, tea towel, snacks a little welcome note all in a lovely little basket. I have a toddler and was a bit worried about the stairs after reading the reviews but they are fine and beautiful. Each step has large flat grips on them and they were normal size if not bigger than normal and they had a wooden gate at the top which stopped the dogs from getting up and said toddler from falling down, such a relief. Everywhere had blankets if needed my girls loved the sheep ones and an extra quilt for the main bed although it was warm enough we didn't need it. The children loved the playroom and just everything you can imagine was thought of at this barn. It was beautiful and the decor was just perfect for an old barn. I must also add I wasn't kept up by dogs or heard them hourly, they do have dogs but further away from the property and its a working farm in the countryside so you are surrounded by nature and farm. The views are amazing and so much to do right on the doorstep, literally! If you walk out of the barn there is a footpath behind the owners property that takes you across a field over a small road and small footpath again to three chimneys cottage from the film the railway children at the bottom of the hill is the railway line that was used and you can still journey on a steam train if you wanted. Haworth is along the road and home to the bronte sisters and lovely quaint shops. Katie and David are amazing people, i was a bit worried at first being so close to the owners property but they didn't interfere or come over it was i that was popping to see them. Such interesting people and katie showed us her harps and played for us, my autistic daughter never talks but happily talked to katie and fell in love with the harp, will definitely be booking again! Thank you Kate and David for a magical week! X

  What a wonderful stay we have had at mouldy wrap barn.

  . it’s a unique and quirky building and just absolutely amazing.. it’s peaceful and tranquil and has a wonderful air of calm about it… we were blessed with the best weather for the week and the barn was a welcome from the hot heat outside the barn stayed lovely and cool while the weather was boiling … but at night the barn held the temperature well due the building being old (very old actually) it’s a beautiful build.. we had the most amazing time.. the barn has a small enclosed garden that the doggies loved, it also had its own private park that the kids took full advantage of during the evening because we spent most day out doing things… there was load to do and the owners Katie and Dave where amazing and so helpful the whole time, they where a fountain of knowledge about the area and things to do and we took every opportunity to do all the things they suggested, from Hebden bridge, eureka centre, piece museum and my favourite was definitely the steam train ride from Oxenhope various destinations. We would highly recommend this as a day trip .. Katie and Dave made the stay so magical for the kids they got to see puppies and dove babies and a sheep being sheared and they have memories that will last them a lifetime…. The barn has everything you could need to live for a week or two… it was comfortable the beds where amazingly comfortable … we had read the reviews about the stairs and although it’s probably not ideal for people with low mobility there are two down stairs bedrooms making it accessible for everyone I think… it’s been the best week we have had for a very long time, the area is amazing the barn was spectacular and the owners are friendly and helpful… they never stopped working the whole time we were there they are hard workers and still found time to advise us when we needed them to… shops are super close and there is nothing you can’t find it has everything… if you’re considering a nice break away we would recommend mouldy barn it was fantastic… getting out in the Yorkshire air is exactly what we needed… thanks both for the best stay.. we hope to return again.. xx

  Greenfield cottage from the moment you walk in feels like a home from home.

  So many special little touches starting with the welcome basket really make you feel at ease. There is everything available, no having to dash out to the shop because you've forgotten shampoo or washing up liquid, the owners have thought of everything. The cottage itself is so comfortable and a joy to sit around the table after supper playing an assortment of games provided for the children /grandchildren or having an hours peace in the lounge while they are in the playroom! Location couldn't better, so many places within an average of 30 minute drive. Bolton abbey, Skipton castle and Stump Cross caverns is just a little further but were we had lovely days out. We challenged ourselves to walk from the cottage to Bronte waterfall and Top Witham, (about 12 mile) what a beautiful walk and our 15/13 year old granddaughters enjoyed it too and said it was much easier than expected once you have done the first hill into Haworth! Haworth itself is obviously a must for the Bronte connection but I found (having our dog with us) the Parsons field just at the rear of the parsonage an absolute delight for the dog or just to sit and recharge. Not forgetting the the Keighley railway of course, we had a day rider ticket and enjoyed another day jumping on and off the trains and visiting each attraction at the stations. As you probably of guessed, as far as we are concerned a perfect cottage, location and a wonderful week for me, my husband and grandchildren. We can't thank the owners enough for the hospitality!

  We had a lovely stay at this property.

  The owners were very friendly and helpful, and the place itself is incredibly charming, spacious and quaint. I can see why people come back. Having said that there were some issues we found frustrating...I was there as a single parent with 4 teenagers/young adults, and the wifi didnt work. We did try to sort it, the owners were helpful, but basically the only internet is via an extension in the farmhouse 15 paces and 2x 2 foot thick walls away. It didnt work, Im sure any parent of offspring can empathise with having four youngsters desperate to get online at night. There is 4G, but they ran out of data on day 2. Basically, the place needs its own wifi. The gas oven was very poor, it took an hour to cook oven chips (I finished them on the hob eventually), and it kept just going out. The TV needs replacing, the picture is pink and a speaker has blown, considering it was autum and we had no wifi, the TV would have been appreciated, but we found it too frustrating. Lastly the place is toasty warm except for the kitchen/dining area which was freezing cold. One of the radiators wasnt working, so it needs additional heating, particularly if you consider we were there in relatively mild autumn conditions, in winter it would be unusable. All in all though, it was great, and I hope the owners consider this feedback not as critisism, but as a way of understanding how to really improve the experience of staying in their lovely Barn :)

  It’s like stepping back in time at Greenfield Cottage!

  This lovely & cosy ‘chocolate box’ cottage in the heart of the Yorkshire is a must if you’ve never visited these parts before. Everything you could possibly wish for is provided by Alison Scott & family. There’s lots of little personal touches, welcome package including scones, coffee tea etc, milk & prosecco. Freshly cut flowers Plenty of info for trips out, board games to play in front of wood burning fire (sadly not required for our august stay!) 3D tv for cinema nights. Our kids loved their own floor of the house (attic) equipped with gaming stations, books & toys. The beds are so comfy & the waterfall shower was bliss! Plenty of places to visit in the area. Our favourites included Ilkley, Holden Park, Cliff Castle & Museum & of course the historical Haworth & Bronte Parsonage which is a short enjoyable walk away from Oakworth, the views are amazing. We managed a couple of times to walk via Tim Lane & up the steep incline to Howarth but opted for taxis back via Bronte Taxis £4.50 back to the cottage - well worth it. Oakworth KWVR is also another ‘must do’ to view the beautiful steam engines where ‘The Railway Children’ was filmed. At the station is a lovely little ‘tea hut’ that sells fabulous ice cream. Our plan was to have a lovely relaxing break & that’s just what we got we were sorry to leave!!! Highly recommend.
