Lovingly renovated throughout as a family project, Higher Kirkstall Wood Farm is a beautiful stone built farmhouse situated on the outskirts of Keighley with views across the fields and moors beyond. This property oozes charm and character where guests can fully immerse themselves in country living, with features like the rangemaster in the kitchen, stone built staircase and incredible fire place in the main living room where you can snuggle up in front of the wood burner. Set between a woodland to the back and fields dotted with sheep and cattle to the front, you really are spoilt for choice when it comes to walking – and it’s all from your doorstep!

Bronte country is nearby, offering lots of wonderful walking routes across the moors and, for those keen on cycling, why not try a section of the Tour de France route that runs through Keighley and Haworth? For a more relaxing way to explore the area, hop on the Worth Valley Steam Train from Keighley Station, which takes you on a 5 mile journey through the Haworth moors and on to Oxenhope, once home to the Bronte sisters. The village of Haworth, 3 miles, is well worth a visit with its pretty cobbled streets lined with bunting and old fashioned windows giving you a glimpse of the wares within. There is an array of antique shops, independent book stores, pavement cafés and restaurants, plus the Bronte Parsonage Museum. The market town of Skipton, also known as ‘The Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales’, 10 miles, is another great day out, with a tempting selection of bars and restaurants, a medieval castle and bustling street markets. You can also take a stroll along the Leeds & Liverpool canal that runs through, or simply watch the barges chug through, from a bar overlooking the water. Grab a delicious afternoon tea at Betty’s Tea room in Ilkley and head to Bolton Abbey for a picture perfect picnic beside the river.

    Lovely clean and well equipped property.The stairs could do with a hand rail and may not be suitable for people with mobility issues.Would definitely stay at the property again, more than enough space for 7 people.

    Very comfortable with everything you could need to enjoy your stay. High on a hill with amazing views of the countryside and Keighley. We enjoyed our visit and catching up with people we know.
