• "Michelle was warm and welcoming there was a lovely welcome pack on our arrival."

  All in all the cottage was like home from home it had everything you needed to make a few days away relaxing. The weather was good to us as well. We would recommend the cottage to our friends who wished to visit that part of Yorkshire.

• "Had a great week in this lovely cottage which provided everything you could need, very spacious well equipped cottage."

  Michelle the owner is very friendly and helpful, she met us on arrival and was on hand if there were any problems- there wasn't! Weather was kind to us so we did get to enjoy sitting in the garden watching the sunset. Cottage very well located for walks from the door or further afield and for visiting Haworth (and the Bronte Parsonage), and Hebden Bridge, Skipton etc, all worth a visit. We cooked most days after very long hikes but we did eat out a couple of times in Haworth - would recommend the Fleece Inn, lovely food and good value, need to book in advance though as it does get busy (can book online).Oakworth does have a co-op for food top-ups with bigger supermarkets' in Keighley if you need a bigger shop. Highly recommend the cottage which is tucked away in a very quiet are and has one of the best views in Oakworth.

  The owner, Michelle, lives next door and is very friendly and helpful. It is well situated to visit places such as Haworth or further afield in West Yorkshire or the Dales.You do need to be prepared if walking locally for the very steep hillsides!

  The holiday was excellent. Well appointed and great showers. A smart, comfortable living room with a separate lounge/ dining room. A utility room next to kitchen, with a super fridge/freezer. The views towards Haworth were a treat. A great area with lots to visit e.g. park & ride to York about 1 hour away, Haworth minutes away, and beautiful Yorkshire Dales scenery with pretty market towns.

• "We stayed at Hilltop cottage from 19th - 25th May."

  We booked this cottage as the photos looked as if it was a traditional cottage,which is something we both enjoy. However,we were very pleasantly surprised to find that ,whereas, the ground floor was traditionally furnished, the top floor has been modernised. The bathrooms and the large and spacious showers were fab. It is obvious that Michelle and Paul have spent a great deal of time and effort into making the cottage very comfortable. Lots to do in the area. We were there for the 1940's weekend which was a great day out. Most people were in the 1940's clothes,singing and dancing

• "Had a lovely week at Hill Top Cottage, even the weather behaved."

  The beds were comfortable, kitchen well stocked with crockery, cutlery and pans, although you would be best to take your own condiments. Michelle left us a nice welcome gift of coffee, tea, prosecco and a packet of local biscuits. The whole cottage was very clean and the instructions for the heating system, WiFi and bins were very clear. We ate mainly at the cottage cooking for ourselves, but the Co-op, both in Oakworth and Haworth, were well stocked and nearby Keighley has 4 large supermarkets. We had a Chinese takeaway from the shop in Keighley and thoroughly enjoyed it. We did not try the local pubs, so I am not able to comment. If you are a steam train or film enthusiast you can get on the Worth Valley steam train at Oakworth Station, which also featured in both The Railway Children and The Return of the Railway Children. We would certainly recommend and come back again. The view from the garden is certainly worth it.

• "Beautiful spacious cottage with extensive views."

  Everything is well thought out, one of the best equipped cottages we've ever stayed in. Lovingly renovated to a very high standard by the owners Paul and Michelle who were so welcoming and helpful especially as there was heavy snowfall and we needed help getting up the road, they dug the road and the next day they did the same for my parents when they got stuck. Location is quiet but well located for the beautiful surrounding villages with walking from the door, no need for a car. We went on the steam train at Oakworth and walked to Haworth both wonderful experiences. We usually go to new cottages each time to vary our holidays but we will definitely be back to Hilltop in the future.

• "The cottage was spotlessly clean and very welcoming."

  The owner was friendly and most helpful. Sadly our visit was for us to attend 2 family funerals in the area. For this reason we were a party with elderly parents. The stairs to the upstairs were steep, my parents struggled a little to climb them. It might be useful to share this in the description of the cottage. I may have missed the details about the stairs when booking. I booked with short notice. Would definitely recommend this cottage and would love to visit again under different circumstances.

• "A great Holiday cottage and wonderful and helpful hosts Michelle and Paul."

  The property is spacious and was immaculate when we arrived. Two sitting rooms with lots of space and lovely furniture A lovely rocking chair to sit and soak in the lovely views of the outdoor seating and greens. The bedrooms have lovely views with windows in Bedrooms and bathrooms. Spacious bathrooms one on-suite and the other in close proximity to two other bedrooms. Enough storage in all rooms. Both Bathrooms tastefully done and brand new. The showers are great with good pressure unlike most of holiday cottages we have been. The kitchen very well equipped with lots of pots and pans and cutlery, glasses, cups and the best kitchen knives. The fridge is huge for storing with a fantastic washing machine all brand new. Thanks to Michelle for leaving us some goodies. Everything provided was of high standard with quality tea, coffee, Prosecco, milk and biscuits. No wonder they have earned the best Sykes award for giving us the quality and space for a great outdoors holiday. We couldn't use up the whole week due to work commitments but we had a great holiday. The Grouse INN is just a few minutes from the cottage and is value for money. Just a note of thanks to Michelle and Paul for the most comfortable and amazing stay in their cottage and we hope to visit again as we love Yorkshire.

• "Very comfortable, very clean, well equipped kitchen and cottage exactly as described in details."

  The family, who are next door, are very pleasant, friendly and helpful, couldn't find nicer people. The area has beautiful scenery, wish I had been younger to do some hill walking - it is a very hilly area so need to be fit to go walking. It was great on the Steam Train which you can hop on 2 miles away, we stayed on it most of day! The staff are very kind and helpful. We found the best restaurants were the Grouse (BD22 0RX sat nav) they are a little pricey but excellent food and very pleasant staff. The Busfield arms (BD20 5SP) very reasonable and very good food. Can be a little slow on the service but worth it. We found Skipton great for a shop. Small town (CAR PARK BD23 1ED) but a great market Mom/Wed/Fri - The Holy Trinity Church, at end of high Street, offers a very nice reasonable lunch, but there are other cafe'.

  The cottage was spotlessly clean and well presented when we arrived. Michelle the owner was lovely and so helpful with all our questions and requests. It was so easy to relax in the cottage and the immediate area. We walked around Oakworth, taking in the K&WV Railway, Ebor Mill and the surrounding hills. We cooked for ourselves several times but also enjoyed time in The Snooty Fox and The Golden Fleece. Days out to Skipton, York and Hawes are highly recommended. If you're still reading, we are already choosing dates when we can return; I think that's the best recommendation you can get! Thanks again to Michelle for a great stay. We'll see you soon!
