Cunliffe House Reviews

Had a fabulous weekend stay for our Xmas get together, so comfortable and clean ... Had a fabulous weekend stay for our Xmas get together, so comfortable and clean , lovely touch with the welcome hamper , the house is to a really high standard , the kids and men spent some time in the games room , and we used the hot tub which if any criticism, would be it could do with being undercover as it was a freezing windy evening but we still used it , would definitely use again and recommend for more nights next time

The oven could do with a deep clean, not enough waste bags nor clear indication of recycling. The fire pit was full of cigarette butts and could have done with cleaning out. No locks on bathroom doors otherwise very warm and comfy. Wed definitely come back, the games room was excellent as was the hot tub. The house itself was beautiful, quiet and ideally located to tour the surrounding countryside.

Beautiful property, spotlessly clean, comfortable, fabulous heating and hot tub an added bonus. Peaceful location, less than 10 mins walk to very friendly local pub. Would not hesitate to recommend and definitely return!

Christine

Had a great girls trip for 3 nights, lovely house very comfortable, and enjoyed the hot tub

Yvonne

Overall our stay was really good! Property and location perfect for us and our dogs. The hot tub was very scummy when we first used it so contacted pool maintenance and they came out the next day. He emptied it and cleaned it which meant it was out of action for a couple of hours. Having a nice clean hot tub was great! Inside the property were lots of candles, we lit the two in the lounge which already contained used candles, one candle fell against the holder and cracked the glass badly! We did leave a note to warn that it was broken and dangerous. Also another's candle holder set on fire whilst we were relaxing in the lounge. We dealt with it but felt it would be better if there was a no candle policy in the property. The games room was brilliant! So much fun! We would definitely return for longer as there are lots of places to visit around Esholt. Ps we couldn't find the vacuum cleaner which would have been handy! This is a great property with good bedroom combinations so suits all age ranges.

Kathryn

Absolutely fantastic place, thank you for the starter pack. Everything was really clean, maybe suggest a little fridge in the games room and also more outside lighting around the hot tub area, but apart from that we would recommend your house and we will definitely come back

Beverley

The location was just perfect for our weekend away. We had lovely autumnal sunshine. Lovely walk to Guiesley taking in the views towards Bradford and beyond. Visited the Woolpack pub in our return walk. The property was comfortable well maintained. We made use of the hot tub and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The welcome was a lovely touch. We didn't make use of the games room in the garage but there is definitely something for everyone at the property. Would recommend it to anyone.

Everyone really enjoyed their stay. Brilliant amenities, games room and hot tub especially. We loved the location too, peaceful area with localbpub and walks, but also easy access to the nearest towns, Saltaire and Bingley. Highly recommended.

We had a fantastic few days with the family i. E. son,daughter in law and two teenagers. Lots of memories made. Just a few observations made as follows The teapot was cracked and leaking No hot water in the bath in upstairs bathroom A shower screen needed over downstairs bathroom to prevent flooding. A full length mirror would bt appreciated

We loved the house, the location, the garden, hot tub, rooms, ensuites, the cleanliness, the WiFi, the space and layout, games room, views, sheep, owls and bunnies we would definitely come again! Things we think could be better downstairs bathroom could do with an update and a shower curtain for the shower and tiles which cover the wall to stop it getting soaked, it wasnt really usable as a shower. Locks on bathroom doors and ideally all upstairs doors and ensuites! More space to storing food To know someone was coming to collect something early in the morning! Not asking us to strip our beds and leave towels and sheets in the bath by email the day before we leave when youre paying a lot of money you dont expect to be part of the housekeeping process, never been asked to do this before!

Catherine

Lovely spacious house with everything you need literally a few minutes walk to the Woolpack pub in Esholt village. Loved the games room, the snug outside and the hot tub. Comfy and beautiful bedrooms. Only things I might add would be a blind on the landing window, being able to lock the gate next to the yard behind and someone checking the hot tub every couple of days. Will be coming back though at some point in the future.

The house is ideally situated to explore the area but also secluded enough to enjoy the peace of the countryside. Everything was clean and tidy and the welcome pack was above and beyond, we even had a bottle of prosseco to enjoy. We placed an online grocery order from Asda that arrived as promised with no issues, it was ideal for a large family. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, we reported that there was not enough wine glasses and they supplied some the same day, a very prompt and polite service.

The house was lovely and had been furnished to a high spec. Sadly the lounge chair was broken and the soft furnishings smelt of dogs. The master bedroom mattress needs replacing as you keeping rolling into the middle. The kitchen needs more crockery, in particular wine glasses, mugs and teaspoons. We would be happy to return as it house was in a lovely location and very private if the issues mentioned are rectified.

A really lovely house with plenty of space. We only stayed for two nights but wished we could have stayed longer. Maybe in the future. We made full use of the games room and hot tub. We sat in it listening to the music from a festival fete at the local sports club. The only downside was the scrap yard behind the house. They had a bonfire alight when we arrived and it didn't burn out until 36 hours later. We couldn't sit outside in the shaded area next to the games room because of the smoke from it. Apart from that, everything was great. The Woolpack pub in the village was good for food and drinks.

The property was amazing, couldnt fault one thing about it we will definitely be returning again! Attention to detail was on point the surroundings were beautiful. The hot to was fab and we had lots of fun in the games room, the hamper and fridge package was a lovely added bonus 1010 really couldnt fault one thing. Thank you we had an amazing stay here and look forward to another one.

We had a great week at Cunliffe house. It has a great set up with the hot tub and games room, as well as plenty of space so you can escape from each other. Beautiful patios and we loved watching the bats while using the firepit. The bedrooms are well appointed, particularly the 2 ensuites. The kitchen has plenty of space but as foodies we'd have appreciated better sharp knifes than are available. Maybe a sharpener would help? I added a plastic lemon squeezer to the items, as we needed one. As others have pointed out the main sitting room's sofas need reupholstering as they are past their best, although look lovely. The garden room has more upright sofas though, and it is a great room to sit in and relax, whilst admiring the gardens. I'd definitely recommend it as a holiday location. The Woolpack served tasty food if you fancied lunch and the village has a number of walks. Hopefully we'll visit again. Thank you!

Nice & cosy property in a peaceful location. Being able to walk to the cricket club & the atmospheric Woolpack pub was a bonus, where we had a very good meal. A lovely welcome hamper was provided on arrival. Plenty of hot water and linen & towels provided were of very good quality. The kitchen was well equipped. Unfortunately our group was a little disappointed. There was food from previous guests left in the oven. Broken teapot in cupboard had leaked and left a brown tea stain in cupboard. We removed couple of beer bottles that had been left in games room. A broken leg on the lounge armchair & lounge suite was worn. Also a broken zip on the conservatory sofa. Soap container in master ensuite almost empty on arrival & dusty skirting boards in Master ensuite. Lack of wardrobes in some bedrooms. The outside table & chairs appeared not been cleaned for sometime & the fire pit table had ashes left in it. I contacted the owner re some of the issues. She apologised for the cleaner having overlooked some things & she offered to send someone up to address the outside issues but as it was our penultimate evening we declined. Some of the above would indicate that the cleaningmaintenance could be better. Weve previously stayed in other properties with Sykes.

Mollie Mae

We had a fantastic stay for our first family holiday in years at Cunliffe House. Totally relaxing environment and would definitely come back, we were a little disturbed by the banging and construction work going on next door but this can't be helped, and the gentleman that came to fetch the mower from the shed a couple of times was very friendly and respectful, especially when he asked if he was okay with the dog. The pool table is not like the one on the pictures which is a shame, but we spent plenty of time on it regardless, a real highlight! My only suggestion would be to have some form of barrier or gate on the drive, or where the outdoor seating area is, as this is not enclosed and we had to park our cars in a way to try and block it off as we had a dog with us we had a few people walk by the bottom of the drive with dogsrunners etc so this was something we had to be aware of. Although the listing says fully enclosed, unfortunately this is not true as our dog could easily get out if he chose, and there is a large space in the hedge that goes straight through to a six foot drop onto the roadpathway. So if you do have a dog that is likely to wander or is in anyway reactive, a lead is very necessary! This didn't take away from our stay though as it's still relatively private, and the whole house was lovely, decorated to a beautiful standard, and we genuinely felt like we were at home. We made use of the fire pitBBQ, went in the hot tub nearly every day, and had an all round fabulous time. We hope to be back soon!

Steven

Beautiful property in a lovely peaceful setting, games room was fab and provided many hours of entertainment, house was lovely and warm, beds were so comfy and towels great. A nice hamper on arrival, my only criticism would be similar to previous reviews, lack of tumblr type drinking glasses tea towels, plus a lovely seating area outside provided but seats not cleaned so unable to really use, however this didn't detract from a great time we had and would stay again

We immediately fell in love with this gorgeous, welcoming house. It was clean, spacious, warm and comfortable and the lovely welcome pack on arrival was very much appreciated. The large hot tub and games room were well used by all family members and were a great fun addition to this property. The conservatory at the back of the house is a lovely quiet space and the outdoor area offers different places to sit and enjoy the lovely views. The quiet, scenic location was so peaceful and a 5 minute walk to the friendly village pub was a definite bonus. Would definitely recommend this house for a getaway and would love to return with the family again.

Had an absolutely wonderful couple of days. The house is beautiful the pictures on line don't do it justice. The little touches like the welcome basket and bottle of prosecco so thoughtful. Lovely quality of bedding and towels. The family loved the hot tub and games room, just one suggestion to consider perhaps some sort of wooden structure to house the hot tub would make it ideal for use all year round. Having said that the rain didn't deter us from using it! . Will definitely be going back to Cunliffe house.

Alison

An awesome cottage in a beautiful setting!

Charlotte

My friends and I had an amazing stay at this property. Everything was clean and fresh upon arrival and the pictures do not do the house justice in how large and well decorated it is! We came with a small dog who had the time of his life in the garden and relaxing by the well stocked fireplace. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, and the hot rib exceptionally large! We had such a great time, I would definitely look to book again. The owner was also really helpful in returning an item of lost property we didnt even realise wed left it there! Thank you so much for an amazing stay

Our only concern was the difference in floor level from the kitchen to the rest of the house as the step is a lot higher than a normal step. Also if you were going to the downstairs bedroom or the stairs it was darker.

Great house and location

the house was fabulous well equipped comfy beds only thing was the WiFi we could not get on and the games room could do with a spruce up we had to clean the tables in there ourselves when arrived but still a fabulous house and location.

Lovely, spacious, well equipped property. Picturesque setting. Definitely recommend

Jessica

A beautiful house located in a gorgeous picturesque setting. Fantastic amenities which made it perfect for our family getaway. We would highly recommend anyone to book this property.

Really enjoyed our stay, would certainly recommend to others. All the rooms were a decent size, nicely decorated and clean. Hot tub obviously a bonus too!

This house was perfect for our plans and we had a lovely week. We were impressed by the small touches that made us feel so welcome, a huge hamper of goodies, bathrobes, comfy beds etc. Our only suggestions are for some more crockery and cutlery teaspoons as we were in a constant dilemma whether to wash up or put on a half full dishwasher. We also would have liked to know how to segregate our rubbish to recycle, or if its not possible to have known whywe felt bad throwing such a lot in the general waste! Thank you

This is a wonderful property. Its in a beautiful location so peaceful and picturesque. The house has everything you could possibly want amenitieswise and the rooms are furnished very tastefully. We found it to be spotlessly clean and the welcome hamper was an added bonus. The hot tub is great, and the games room also added to the experience. We had a bit of an issue with ladybirds all over the front of the house on one of the days, such that we couldnt open the windows, but of course, thats not the fault of the house, just nature!! All six of us would love to return.

Gillian

A beautiful, extremely large house in a gorgeous location. Fully equipped and everything provided that we needed. Comfortable beds and the added luxury of a hot tub and games room. So much space and lots of bathrooms. Garden areas fantastic with plenty of different places to sit even if the weather is bad. Overall, a great place to stay and would highly recommended. Just a couple of things to point out Cellar door needs a lock, settees are a bit saggy and dated and cleaning not quite up to par we had to ask the guy that checks the hot tub to clean the games room it looked like it hadnt been cleaned in a while, quite a few old cobwebs around, not nice over the cooker and outside bin filled with flies.

A lovely house which matched the description and the photographs. Hot tub was just the right temperature, beds and sofas were comfortable, the orangery was a lovely place to escape to with a book. Although enclosed, the garden is far from secure as at one point the wall is only a few inches high. We therefore kept our dog on a lead when in the garden as we thought it likely he'd jump down to 'greet' walkers passing by. A peaceful location with just a short walk to the village and the very friendly Woolpack and post office.

Very comfortable place. Everyone slept well. Lovely spacious lounge. Jacuzzi was lovely after long walks and nice to have soft dressing gowns. Well equipped kitchen only issue is only one shelf in the oven. A lose paving slab was fixed the next working day. No welcome book.

Lovely place to stay. Comfy beds, all rooms beautifully presented. Thank you

We really loved Cunliffe House . It was spacious, had a beautiful outlook and surroundings. The welcome basket was great. We found it comfortable and the contact staff were very responsive and attended to any.problems . Just a few issues. Its billed as a luxury stay but lacks a few things that we would normally find in a more moderate property. So not enough bin bags, washing up liquid ,pan scrubbers etc. As we were in the property for 3 weeks we expected a clean at some point but that was not available. Again there were no cleaning products such as toilet cleaner, surface cleaner or even cleaning cloths which we had to buy. Also we were happy to sort our refuse into recycling and non recycling rather than put all the rubbish in together so maybe another bin in the kitchen for recycling. All the above withstanding it is a super property in an ideal location for walking and sightseeing.

Lovely, spacious, well equipped property. Picturesque setting. Definitely recommend

Kerenza

House is lovely but comfort is let down by dreadful beds and sofas in need of replacement.

Christine

Had a fabulous time house is lovely and well equipped, needs a tin opener that works and possibly some cover over the hot tub area. But apart from that highly recommended
