Afternoon strolls can be enjoyed beside the Langsett, Broomhead and Moorhall dams, and Holmfirth, featured in Last of the Summer Wine, is close by. The longer walks and good mountain biking of the National Park are a short drive away, and visitors may even take advantage of the proximity of the M1 to venture as far afield as Sheffield, Leeds or York.

Stuart
We were impressed by the cottage and the space therein all rooms being a really good size. The cottage is beautiful, cosy and well equipped with lovely surrounding gardens and wonderful views of the surrounding area. We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone as it is perfect for local walks and others within a fifteen minute drive. You may often find David working in the garden who will gladly chat about the area and local history. We can also highly recommend Lee's House for a super Chinese takeaway which we feel is simply the best Chinese we have ever had.
