Situated at the top of Haworth Main Street, the cottage is just a short stroll to an excellent selection of shops, pubs, cafes, craft and gift shops.

The cottage has recently been refurbished to a very high standard and a warm welcome awaits any visitor.

It consists of a double bedroom and a smaller second bedroom with full size bunk beds. All beds have non feather duvets and pillows, blankets are also available.

The newly fitted bathroom has an over-bath shower and co-ordinated bathroom suite.

The combined lounge and kitchen is tastefully furnished, well equipped and has an Inglenook Fireplace with Gas Stove. The property benefits from gas central heating and double glazing.

Co-ordinated bed linen, towels and utilities are included in the rental price.

Haworth itself offers many tea rooms, bookshops, restaurants, pubs and hotels (including the Black Bull, where Branwell Bronte's decline into alcoholism and opium addiction allegedly began).

As such, Haworth is a great base for exploring the many attractions of Bronte Country, while still being close to Leeds and Bradford. Slightly further away lies the historic city of York, and the spa towns of Harrogate and Ilkley. The market town of Skipton is a short drive away and is your gateway to the Yorkshire Dales.

Many public footpaths lead out of the village, and plenty of availability for rambling. The most famous walk leads past Stanbury Reservoir to the picturesque Bronte waterfalls, bridge, and stone chair in which, it is said the sisters took turns to sit and write their first stories.

This path, which forms part of the 40 mile long Bronte Way then leads out of the valley and up on the moors to Ponden Hall (Thrushcross Grange in Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights) and Top Withens, a desolate ruin which was (reputedly) the setting for the farmstead Wuthering Heights in the novel.

Other attractions include the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, an authentic preserved steam railway which has been used as a setting for numerous period films and TV series, including The Railway Children. Every year Haworth hosts a very special 1940s weekend where locals and visitors don wartime attire for a host of nostalgic events.

The six weekends prior to Christmas in Haworth are very special, with Christmas trees by the dozen and organised entertainment, including the famous "Scroggling of the Holly" and "The Torchlight Procession" all complimented by most of the shop keepers dressed in Victoria costume- all contributing to a unique festive atmosphere, not to be missed.
