Country cottage close to the Peak District with stunning Holme Valley views.

After a busy day hiking and cycling, visiting the many tourist attractions of the Holme Valley and Peak District or maybe just catching up with family and friends - you'll be happy to come back to our cosy, comfy and clean cottage. Enjoy the log burning stove in winter, or the late afternoon sun in summer!

You'll have access to the whole cottage, plus parking space for 2 cars and an enclosed garden with a small patio. Our family home is right next door... and we're always happy to give advice on places to walk, drink and eat!

Entering on the ground floor through an entry porch (with washing machine and space for coats/boots etc) you'll find a spacious and well equipped kitchen, then open-plan dining/living space which looks out over the far reaching views. Upstairs is a bright and airy twin bedroom to the rear of the cottage - overlooking the garden, and the Peak District in the distance. The bathroom is compact but well equipped, with shower over bath. And finally a spacious master bedroom, with king sized bed, which being at the front of the cottage, overlooks the valley - towards Castle Hill and Emley Mast.

All linen and towels are of course included, as well as "starter" supplies of everything else you should need (soaps and shower gel, toilet roll, washing up liquid and dishwasher tablets, tea, coffee, sugar, salt & pepper etc)... and we'll leave a pint of milk in the fridge so you can have a cuppa whilst you unpack.

Law Cottage is just over 3 miles from Holmfirth, and 5 miles from Penistone so a car is required to travel around.. but it's just a 6 minute walk to the Fox House Inn, and just over half an hour walk to either the Boshaw Trout in Hade Edge, or The Butchers Arms in Hepworth. There are also 2 farm shops in the village of Hade Edge which sell locally reared and grown produce.

If country walks are on the agenda then the only problem will be deciding where to go! HolmeStyes Reservoir and Magna Quarry are our nearest and favourite places to walk our 2 dogs - just a 5 minute drive from the cottage. You can find more inspiration in the leaflets and guides that we leave in the cottage.

For culture and shopping then Cannon Hall Farm (home of 5 on the farm), Yorkshire Sculpture Park are great family trips. The Picturedrome in Holmfirth also hosts great cover bands as well as stars of yesterday (and tomorrow!).

The views from the cottage are absolutely stunning; often we see people who stop their bikes or cars to take photos. Even our children, who often have their eyes glued to screens, comment on how lucky we are to have these views every day. However - please do be aware that, being on the top of a hill, does mean that it can be hard to escape the wind and rain so be sure to bring the right clothing!

Up to 2 well behaved dogs are more than welcome, but please be aware that we have rules in place to ensure that visitors who might be allergic, or simply not pet fans, also feel at home here. This means no pooches upstairs or on the furniture, and not to be left home alone for long periods of time. We find that most guests find plenty of options to enjoy the great outdoors and a pint or two with their four legged friends though!
