Mischa Cottage is frequently described as a lovely, cosy, and well-equipped property in a peaceful and friendly location.

While there are some concerns about maintenance and suitability for pets, the overall experience is positive, with many guests recommending the property and expressing a desire to return.

Guests that stayed at this property said

The majority of guests found the cottage clean and well-presented upon arrival. However, a few guests noted issues with cleanliness such as dirty baking sheets and a stained mattress cover, which slightly lowers the score.

The location is highly praised for its peacefulness, proximity to local facilities, and the beauty of the surrounding area. It serves as a great base for exploring West Yorkshire, although one review mentioned difficulty in locating the property initially.

Guests generally find the cottage comfortable, with special mentions of comfy beds and a cosy living area. However, some guests experienced issues with a dripping shower and noise from neighbouring properties, which affects the score slightly.

The cottage is considered well-equipped by most, but there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as non-working lamps, an old cooker with unreadable settings, and a fridge that freezes contents. These factors necessitate a lower score.

The welcome pack is frequently mentioned and appreciated by guests, indicating a high level of thoughtfulness from the hosts. However, it should be noted that such gifts, while delightful, are not guaranteed for every stay.

About this property

Resting in a quiet part of Thornton is this mid-terrace cottage, Mischa Cottage. In a no-through lane, this hidden terrace of weavers cottages make for a charming and peaceful setting for your next getaway to West Yorkshire, within easy reach of Bradford and the Yorkshire Dales National Park. As you walk from the off-road parking spot to the front of the property, there is a well-kept lawn, shared with friendly neighbours, with a table and chairs just for the guests of Mischa Cottage to enjoy their morning coffee in the fresh air. There is also a private gravelled area to the front with a shed which makes for great bike storage for those budding cyclists waiting to explore the area. Stepping into the property, there is an open-plan living space where a leather chesterfield sofa immediately catches your eye, sat in front of the Smart television and the warming electric fire. Carry on through to the kitchen area where you can prepare a picnic or enjoy breakfast at the bar, or alternatively take your breakfast to the window seat as you watch the world go by. Climbing upstairs, there is an angelic white furnished king-size bedroom with wooden flooring and a dressing table so you can get ready for an evening out or draw the curtains so you can rest and rejuvenate for the next day. Also upstairs is a stylish single room so guests can have their own space to escape to at the end of the day and there is storage so you can unpack any personal belongings, there is also a contemporary shower room with a marble feature wall, a large shower and great lighting. Just a stone's throw away from the property there are shops, bars, pubs, takeaways, and the Grade II listed viaduct, also nearby there is a golf course and Ogden Water Country Park, which is a scenic nature reserve with a fantastic lake. Within a short drive you can discover the pretty village of Haworth, where the family home of the Bronte sisters now remains as the Brontë Parsonage Museum, and the local Keighley & Worth Valley Railway offers train rides on vintage steam locomotives and a museum, or take a walk to the Ponden Kirk's Fairy Cave, passing both the Bronte Memorial and the stunning Bronte Waterfall. Also nearby is the large minster town of Halifax which is thriving with history from the choice of museums, the 18th century cloth hall filled with shops and cafes, to the views from Beacon Hill and the timber-framed Shibden Hall with gardens, a mini-railway and a boating lake. If you can tear yourself away, spend a day in the cities of Bradford or Leeds which are bustling with things to do and gorgeous architecture to marvel at, or alternatively head to the Yorkshire Dales to embrace the views as you walk or cycle around one of the many exciting trails in the area. Misha Cottage is a heart-warming setting for your next sweet trip to the historic part of West Yorkshire.

Thornton has shops, pubs and restaurants, and a café which is in the building where the Brontë sisters were born, before they moved to nearby Haworth where you can now visit their home.
