This quaint stone-built terraced cottage on Haworth’s historic cobbled main street puts you within easy reach of the area’s local pubs, shops, cafes and restaurants, not to mention the Bronte Parsonage Museum less than a five-minute walk away. The decor is exactly what you’d expect of a cosy, rustic cottage – original beams and stonework, and a wood-burning stove in the downstairs living room. While you’ll need to climb some stairs to reach the bedrooms on the upper floor, the zip-and-link beds provide flexibility for families or friends sharing, and the parking permit provided is a welcome addition for those looking to explore further afield by car.

Home Truths

This home is laid out over two floors with internal stairs between them – both bedrooms are on the upper floor so it may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility

The home's entrance is private

Both bedrooms can be set up as either double or twin beds upon request

Due to the location of this home, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay – there’s free on-street parking available here, and the host provides a parking permit

Self-check-in is available

You'll need to bring your own toiletries with you to use during your stay

We think the kitchen is better suited to lighter bites than large meals

The shower pressure here isn't the strongest

With oak beams and flagstone floors, this Grade II listed cottage promises a charming stay for families and friends. We love the flexible bed set-ups, but the ceiling may be too low for some in the bathroom. How about relaxing by the log burner after a scenic dog walk? You'll have country pubs and boutiques on your doorstep in Settle. While we recommend hiring a car to tour the Yorkshire Dales, finding an empty parking spot nearby might be tricky.

Home Truths

Both super-king-sized beds can be set up as twin rooms upon request. Please let your host know which you'd prefer upon booking.

The ceiling in some areas is on the low side. It might not be suitable for taller guests.

Due to the quaint layouts of terraced cottages in this area, your next-door neighbour's home extends above this home on the first floor. Please don't worry if you hear footsteps.

In the charming village of Austwick, this cosy cottage is the perfect retreat after a day exploring the Yorkshire Dales right on your doorstep. Perfectly located, you'll find more picturesque walking trails nearby than you can shake a hiking pole at (maps can be picked up within the village). Alternatively, jump in the car and reach White Scar Cave in less than fifteen minutes or visit the beautiful glacial lake of Malam Tarn, only 7-miles from home. Back inside, the original wooden beams and stone fireplace will soon have you feeling all warm and relaxed. Sink into a brown chesterfield sofa, cradle a cup of hot cocoa, and settle down for a delightful evening in front of the crackling log burning stove – we can think of nothing better after an adventurous day wandering the natural landscape. In warmer months, sprawl out into the back garden and enjoy a bottle of fizz while overlooking views of the Three Peaks area of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. As dinner time arrives, ensure you take the short five-minute drive down to The Courtyard Dairy, where you can taste local cheeses and sample their cakes and buns while enjoying a cup of tea or coffee. Return home with your top picks, and fix together a wine and cheese night in the country-style dining area. Or if you feel like handing over all catering duties during your stay, the cottage is next door to a traditional Yorkshire pub, while an award-winning hotel and restaurant is a short walk up the road.

Home Truths

Bedrooms one and two feature zip-and-link beds that can be made up as doubles or twin beds on request – please specify your preference during the booking process

Pets are allowed, but please keep them off the furniture and beds, and no muddy paws upstairs – ensure you let the host know if you're bringing a dog along at the booking stage

Access to the garden seating area is via six stone steps

This is a self-check-in home with lockbox access

There is ample free street parking, but no designated parking bay

Over 170 years old, this cottage awaits in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. While the scenic countryside abounds, Hawes puts market-town amenities on your doorstep. There's a small seating area on the patio for a sunset tipple, but we especially love the cosy interior. You'll receive a free bundle of logs for the fire, too. But remember to mind your head on the low beams. What's more, pets are welcome to stay, though they can't jump on the furniture or leave pawprints upstairs.
