The parking space was great and we were pleased and surprised to find so many good places to eat within a short work (especially Punch Tapas).Jenny has obviously gone out of her way to think of all the extra touches to make this and lovely place to stay. Highly recommended

Impractical for stays over one week because of inadequate laundry facilities, and no cleaning service provided during the stay. The overall property is not cleaned thoroughly and in general need of TLC and maintenance. This property is cramped for two people.

Simply but “Excellent”

My wife and I could not be happier with the stay at the cottage. It was a wonderful experience in such a beautiful town. We were greeted with a nice bottle of wine and snacks, which was a fantastic gift, especially after a long flight from the United States. The cottage was a home away from home with all the amenities needed for a home-like feeling. The host, Jenny, was great and responded quickly to our questions. The cottage's location was great, and there were many places to shop. We met so many wonderful people in the village and made many friends, especially at a local pub called Farmers Arms. We will definitely request to stay again when we come back to the U.K. Thank you Jenny for the great hospitality and memories.

Heavenly holiday

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the cottage from start to finish and am very much looking forward to going again. Jenny was a lovely host and welcomed me when I arrived to answer any queries etc. The accommodation is beautifully decorated with every comfort you could need and an air of tranquility. With lots of thoughtful welcome treats. The village is lovely with gorgeous walks and very accessible to a wide range of stunning places to visit.

Fantastic

Just a wonderful property. Tucked away in a nice quiet courtyard, but close to the centre of the village. it was the perfect base to do a couple of days walking in the area. Five stars for every aspect of this one. I will hopefully be revisiting in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Jenny Foster

Host profile image
I have lived in this beautiful, rustic and friendly area now for 20 +years, and although I'm from "over the hills" they don't seem to hold it against me! I retired a few years ago, and that gave me the opportunity to start my little holiday let business which has been a dream of mine for some time. I live in close proximity to Dob Cottage and after driving around the North West as a self-employed rep. for many years, I am enjoying the delights of this area, with it's wonderful characters,scenery and "things to do".

Why they chose this property

I love this area because of the spectacular scenery, and the amazing wildlife. For birdwatchers, it is a very worthwhile area to visit, with the owls and the curlews on the moors, and the woodland birds in the valleys.. It is a very "arty" area with many talented artists and sculptors. There are several events throughout the year ie.Art Week, The Folk Festival etc. The local Tourist Information Office has the details! Country pubs and good restaurants and loads of good walks make it an excellent tourist destination. The Holme Valley is picturesque, rustic, and has a warm and welcoming charm all of its own. I like to think that Dob Cottage is a relaxing and comfortable place to come home to, after a busy day of exploring!

What makes this property unique

We chose this area to live because, although we have all the facilities we need in the village, we are surrounded by beautiful countryside.
Also, the proximity of the cities of Manchester, Leeds and Sheffield, make it ideal.
