About this property

Lothersdale 2 miles. Skipton 5 miles. Award-winning Street Head Farm is something a bit special! Taking its name from a little-known Roman route across open farmland, it is situated in a wonderful elevated position and offers incredible open views across glorious Dales countryside. The property is stone-built and has been completely renovated to offer superb holiday accommodation, which is furnished to a high standard. Care has been taken to retain its original charm and features include stone flagged floors and original beams. The owners live on a nearby working farm and personally welcome visitors.

Nestled in a peaceful valley of the Pennine Hills is the charming village of Lothersdale, just five miles from the market town of Skipton. At one time, this lovely little town was home to the famous writer, Charlotte Bronte, who went on to base Gateshead Hall from her novel ‘Jane Eyre' on Stone Gappe House where she was governess. Many of the visitors today come to the village for its excellent walking routes as it is situated along the Pennine Way - on the stretch from Cowling to Gargrave. The village pub is well worth visiting and serves food whilst the nearby town of Skipton provides an excellent range of amenities. Just a short drive away is the town of Haworth, the Bronte's home and the famous Worth Valley Steam Railway.

    It has everything you need in a home from home. We were lucky enough to be there in the snow and it was magical. The welcome scones and goodies were very appreciated. We did not get to do too much walking because of the snow but bonus is that we will have to come back to the area to explore further.

    All three generations were comfortable and had fun. The property was spacious with everyone being able to sit together in the lounge. The beds and bedding were very clean and soft which enhanced a good night's sleep. The water system in the bathrooms was, however, a bit noisy and kept some of our group awake. The landlord was very helpful with no problems checking in or out. We will definitely return!

    Such a cosy, yet roomy cottage. The log fire,tasteful decorations and Christmas tree gave us the feel of a great old fashioned festive celebration. Nothing old fashioned about the up to date kitchen/diner though! Every piece of equipment you may need, except for maybe a torch! We had one but was wrapped up as part of a gift so phone light was used for dog walks etc. Bedrooms, bathrooms etc. all superb and cottage very warm and cosy. Thanks for the welcome gifts and we were sorry not to visit the farm but maybe next time! Mags & family
