The property offers stunning views, a variety of wildlife, and is well-equipped for a relaxing stay.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviewers frequently mention the cleanliness of the cottage, indicating that it is well-maintained and tidy, which suggests a high standard of cleanliness.

The location is highly praised for its scenic views and peacefulness, with proximity to local attractions and wildlife sightings adding to its charm.

Guests describe their stays as comfortable, with the property providing a cosy and relaxing environment, although one minor suggestion for bathroom hooks indicates room for slight improvement.

The facilities are generally well-received, with all essentials for a short stay provided. One guest suggested the addition of silicon tongs for the air fryer, which slightly impacts the score.

The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident through personal touches like welcome packs and gifts. While these are greatly appreciated, it is politely noted that such gestures are at the hosts' discretion and not guaranteed.

About this property

Nestled within the South Pennines, is Calderdale, West Yorkshire, an area of outstanding natural beauty, and its bustling town, Sowerby Bridge. The Barn, at Crow Hill Shaw Farm is located in the hills above the towns made famous by the Sally Wainwright series Happy Valley, Last Tango in Halifax, and Gentleman Jack. Whilst here, you may choose to soak up the scenery with plenty of walks across the moorlands to Ripponden, Mytholmroyd, Stoodley Pike, and Hebden Bridge; or take a gentler walk along a rural and peaceful section of the Calder and Hebble Navigation, The nearby Rochdale Canal runs for 33 miles, and the Tour de France route through Cragg Vale makes the Barn an excellent location for cycling, Just a short distance away from here are the charming market towns of Hebden Bridge and Halifax. Halifax is home to some of Yorkshire’s most famous landmarks, including the Minster, Dean Clough, Shibden Hall and the Piece Hall, as well as the splendid Halifax Borough Market; there is so much on offer in this town, Slightly further afield is Haworth, where along the cobbled main street lies a number of quaint cafés and independent shops, as well as attractions including the world famous Brontë Parsonage Museum, where the sisters once lived and penned some of our best loved books, Other attractions within the surrounding area includes the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, Halifax Bradley Hall Golf Club, the Manor Heath Jungle Experience, and the Hardcastle Crags. Look forward to staying in Sowerby Bridge and exploring the surrounding area of West Yorkshire.

The vibrant market town of Sowerby Bridge is located in Calderdale, West Yorkshire, in the Upper Calder Valley. You can utilise this town as a starting point for exploring the surrounding area because it serves as a gateway to the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors national parks. Two rivers, two canals, and a wide variety of dining and drinking establishments may all be found in the mill town's centre. You may find something to suit everyone's tastes here, whether you want to try award-winning Indian cuisine at Kipling's restaurant or dine at one of the many restaurants on the Wharf with breathtaking views of the water. While you're here, you can choose to take in the countryside by going for a stroll along the Calder and Hebble Navigation, which looks to be a quiet and rural path, or you can bike 33 miles down the Rochdale Canal. The picturesque market town of Halifax, which is not far from here, is home to some of Yorkshire's most well-known attractions, including the Minster, Dean Clough, Shibden Hall, and the Piece Hall, as well as the magnificent Halifax Borough Market; there is much to see and do in this town. A little further away is Howarth, which has a variety of charming cafés and unique businesses along its cobbled main street in addition to world-famous Bront Parsonage Museum, where the sister formerly resided and wrote some of our most beloved tales. The Hardcastle Crags, Manor Heath Jungle Experience, and Halifax Bradley Hall Golf Club are some of the nearby attractions. Look forward to staying in Sowerby Bridge and touring West Yorkshire's surroundings.

    It was lovely to arrive to the extras of breakfast, fruit and g&t. The fresh flowers were a nice touch. I drive a pick up truck and I could easily get in parking space and off the road. Would definately recommend a stay here.

    View from lounge great. Everything you could want from a stay.

    Apart from natural noises such as the birds, were the only noise present. The South facing window is like lookiing into a painting which changes with the weather environment.Various birds were seen but the main reward was spoting a Deer in the nearest field to the Barn,we kept still, and watched it feeding for about half an hour.Bed was comfortable,water hot, heating just right,comfort and welcome gifts10 out of 10.All in all a very laid bck holiday with plenty to view in the district if required.. I recomend and Thankyou.
