The house is beautiful, warm and welcoming. Hot tub was spotless and we enjoyed a few games of pool. We walked to oakworth train station and got the steam train up to keighley and back down to howarth. Would highly recommend this. We walked to howarth a couple of times too there's a beautiful park (central park) and some lovely shops up the cobbled Hill. Then we hit a few of the pubs all welcomed the dogs. All in all one of the best stays we've had.

All home comforts have been thought about. The house was comfortable, impeccably presented & spotlessly clean. The hot tub was a lovely treat after a day out sightseeing. Thanks for a lovely break.
