About this property
Tucked away in the idyllic suburb of Riddlesden in West Yorkshire, is this superb three-bedroom, family-friendly barn conversion, The Coach House. Enjoying a wonderful location near the Leeds and Liverpool Canal and within easy reach of the scenic Yorkshire Dales National Park and Ilkley Moor, The Coach House is a fantastic dog-friendly dwelling for couples or family of five, plus their four-legged friend. Park-up on the spacious driveway with space for four cars, before making your way into your new home from home. Look forward to whipping up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen/diner, featuring a handy washing machine and dishwasher, ready to enjoy with loved ones at the dining table for five people. After dinner, why not play a game of fetch with your canine companion in the front, fenced patio? As the evening cools, retire to the contemporary sitting room where you can relax in front of the large Smart TV with Sky, whilst your canine companion snuggles up by your feet. Climb the stairs up the first floor to wash away the day with a refreshing shower in the sleek shower room, before choosing from three well-appointed bedrooms to catch your rest in, a super-king-size and a twin, both with zip/link, along with a single. Explore the local area where you can visit the Riddlesden & Morton United Services Club, which can be accessed with passes kindly provided by the owner, which houses a bar, pool and snooker table. Cross over the canal where you will find the remarkable 17th-century National Trust site of East Riddlesden Hall, with formal gardens and on-site tearoom, as well as well-stocked shops for picking up any essentials. Head into nearby Keighley, where you can tour the Keighley Bus Museum, pay a visit to Cliffe Castle and its park, or test out your swing at Keighley Golf Club. Next stop is Haworth, where literary fans will have found their haven with the Bronte Parsonage Museum, The Bronte Waterfall and the scenic trail of Bronte Way which ends at Gawthorpe, Lancashire. Why not top off a fun-filled day stepping into the shoes of the former writers with a drink at the Wuthering Heights or the Bronte Hotel? If you don’t fancy walking, hop aboard a vintage steam train at the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway, where you can soak up the stunning scenery of Bronte Country for five miles. Keen walkers and cyclists will want to explore the vast Ilkley Moors which boast panoramic views and wildlife rich surroundings, as well as the Yorkshire Dales National Park with nearby Bolton Priory, Parcevall Hall Gardens and Brimham Rocks.

Could not find any fault with the cottage. The members club is well worth a visit as the drinks are so cheap and a lovely atmosphere.

Lovely to have a separate kitchen from the living space with plenty of room in both. As it was so wet when we arrived, we really appreciated having the cover over the front door so we could manage the key box in the dry. Great idea to have the full hall space with coir matting too. Spotlessly clean. Thank you.

A perfect place for us to combine visiting our family & for cycling along the canal, although it was a steep hike to get back up the hill!
