About this property
The Robins Holiday Cottage is a terraced cottage located in the delightful village of Haworth, West Yorkshire. Just a short walk from the main street with cafes, shops, restaurants and independent shops, this charming dwelling is the perfect destination for a family or two couples looking to holiday in this part of Yorkshire. Step inside and be welcomed by a charming, traditional interior with homely furnishings. Make yourself at home in the sitting room, where you can snuggle up on the sofas and enjoy a good movie night in front of the electric fire and TV. For a home cooked meal, the kitchen/diner offers all the essential appliances and plenty of space. Head upstairs to the two bedrooms, the first of which is a king-size and the second a double, both decorated in a neutral style. Start the morning with a freshen up in the shower room before escaping to the rear patio as you sip on your morning coffee and think about the day ahead. Once you’ve settled in, the village of Haworth is sure to tempt your exploration; visit the iconic Brontë Parsonage, the ancient St. Michael's and All Angels Church, wander along the cobbled Main Street and choose from a selection of traditional pubs, restaurants and cafes. Travelling further afield you will arrive at Keighley, where you can enjoy a lovely day out at the heritage Museum of Rail, Cliffe Castle Museum & Park or the impressive grounds at East Riddlesden Hall. Lace up your walking boots and tackle the local walks – why not follow in the footsteps of Catherine and Heathcliff by wandering the scenic, rugged moorland? Whether you are looking for an action-packed holiday or a relaxing retreat, The Robins Holiday Cottage will help you make the most out of your time in this beautiful corner of Yorkshire.
The small village of Haworth was home to the famous Bronte sisters, who were inspired by the surrounding moorland to pen their novels, which have become classics of English Literature. Haworth is a village that time almost forgot, with its myriad of curiosity and antique shops, alleyways and cobbled streets creating a wonderful period atmosphere, all set against a framing backdrop of countryside famously described in the novel Wuthering Heights as wild, rugged and barren. Nearby, the famous Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, an authentic steam railway brought to prominence in the film The Railway Children, provides a lovely day out with a regular service to the old village of Oxenhope. The area abounds with popular places to visit, including the Bronte Parsonage Museum, East Riddlesden Hall, and the National Railway Museum in York. The market town of Skipton, often fondly regarded as the Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, is just a short drive away, and also within reach are elegant Harrogate and vibrant Leeds and Manchester.

Everything was spotlessly clean. Nice furnishings and decor we found the bed extremely comfortable the bedrooms could do with more hanging space or drawers this wasn't a problem for us as we used the small box room with the cot as a dressing room but if the cottage was at capacity clothes storage might be a challenge. It has two reasonable size bedrooms and the little box room proved very useful to keep everything tidy. Very good effecient shower and nice spacious bathroom. You have access to a large locking shed which would be ideal for a couple of bikes should you need it. The cottage is close to a good butchers shop which also sells fruit and veg and an excellent fish and chip shop which I highly recommend. A short level walk to the bottom of the main street in Haworth it's uphill from there on which might be something to consider for some people. We absolutely fell head over heels in love with Haworth and the moors are breathtaking. A couple of little things to mention to owners I would have liked to have more ovenware trays etc, a colander would be useful, also an outside washing line as there is a washer but no means to dry it and you don't want people putting washing on radiators. You have a great cottage with good outside space and the sign said "Mek thi' sen at 'ome we certainly did and thank you, we would highly recommend this holiday cottage.

Kitchen is well equipped with everything you need to prepare meals if you didn't fancy eating out. The only slight criticism would be the beds are a little soft for our liking but that's just personal preference so don't let that put you off And the welcome Easter egg and card was a lovely touch, many thanks
