About Pickles Hill Cottage

Enjoying a wonderful position within the picturesque Worth Valley, which was made famous by the classic 1970 film, The Railway Children is Pickles Hill Cottage, situated on the outskirts of Oakworth village. This delightful accommodation boasts beautiful views over Haworth Moors and is perfect for couples or small families to explore West Yorkshire and its magnitude of pretty towns and villages, as well as the North Yorkshire National Park.

Enter into the warmth of the cottage and be welcomed into the sitting room, where the exposed beams frame the traditional-style furnishings, complemented by a gas coal-effect fire, making a tranquil spot to return to at the end of an adventure-filled day. Joining this space is the dining table, where you and your loved ones can gather to tuck into a home-cooked meal that was prepared in the well-equipped kitchen.

Afterwards, look forward to catching your rest in one of the two bedrooms; choose from a double bedroom with elegant furnishings and a single bedroom, ideally set up for a child. Soak up the countryside surroundings further, by taking dining outdoors on the patio, where you can catch a glimpse of the sunset while soaking in the bubbling hot tub.

If you can tear yourself away from this quaint abode, head into the village of Oakworth, where you will find a plethora of amenities, including a choice of pubs and a shop for picking up the essentials. The wonderful country pub The Grouse Inn is only 400 yards away from the cottage and offers a 10% discount on food to guests of the cottage.

Alternatively, travel slightly further afield to Keighley where you will find a larger selection of pubs, restaurants, cafés and tearooms, offering something to suit all tastes, as well as providing access to the attractions of Cliffe Castle Museum and Park, offering a variety of local history and heritage. Be sure to visit the nearby village of Haworth, famous for being the home of the Bronte sisters and the inspiration for many of their famous novels, as well as a variety of quaint eateries for refuelling before exploring the surrounding moorland.

Pickles Hill Cottage Reviews

The fire, which is shown in pictures implies that its in use. It isnt. One of the reasons of picking it was for the log fire. The bed is incredibly squeaky and loud, even when moving slightly. The shower wobbles around a lot and isnt attached to the wall well. Otherwise its a nice country cottage, just disappointed in a few things.
Spencer
Welcome treats were a lovely touch, beautiful views, great location. Hot tub completes the chill vacation.
A very well looked after and fab cottage, could have stayed longer! Will recommend and go again!
Heather
Lovely comfortable cottage, delightful surroundings and easy location for walks. Bonus was the excellent pub The Grouse, just up the road with stunning views. Definately would stay there again.
Geraldine
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this quaint cottage. Great location and had everything we needed on hand. Will definitely be recommending to friends and family .
Charlotte
Pickles hill cottage was so clean and cosy we loved our stay here. The area is so picturesque and would definitely recommend the Grouse inn pub literally 5 mins away from the cottage. The owner Leanne messaged on the morning of our stay and also during to make sure everything was ok. Thank you we loved it
We both loved this cottage, it was super comfy. The sheep at the kitchen window,I'm sure one winked at me. The area is stunning. After a good day out, the hot tub just relaxed us both, then a good night's sleep in a very comfortable bed. The little things made this cottage. Great hosts.
Pamela
We absolutely loved this cozy, high class, countryside setting, cottage. Especially looking out the kitchen window to see our friendly sheep. There are nice dog walks right outside the door. A really nice restaurant right up the road within walking distance. Unfortunately, our trip was cut short due to personal reasons but I would highly recommend this wonderful space, complete with hot tub. It is close to so many holiday opportunities with the Bronte museum within a short distance. You will have everything you need, all the comforts of home and then some. Leanne, the owner is especially helpful and attentive. Would love to come back! Full marks for value for money. Just fabulous!
Helena
Had a great stay at Pickles Hill Cottage, it is such a lovely cosy cottage and the hot tub is just what you need after a long walk! Theres also a pub just a short walk away and the lovely village Haworth which is only a 5 min drive or 40 min walk away. Leanne gave recommendations of places to visit on our welcome message which was super helpful, as we booked a last minute getaway so hadnt planned what we were going to do. She even left use some brownies on check in and let us check out slightly later which was really appreciated. Would definitely recommend the cottage to family & friends. Thanks again for a lovely stay!
Andrea
Great cottage, cosy and comfy, had everything you would need. Will recommend to friends if they are going to the area.
A lovely countryside property with hot tub, ideal for walking and exploring the local area
Worst holiday cottage we have stayed in. Could not open key box on arrival.carpets stained,had no heating or hot water had to hunt the boiler eventually found it in the laundry room turned the boiler up.the laundry room was a fire hazard stuff all over the floor.the double bed was noisy everytime you moved.contacted the owner leanne with the complaints who is not a decent person who will listen.we actually stayed 3 nights instead of 7 worst unhappy holiday ever seeking 300 refund.
Beautiful and cosy home from home. Well equipped cottage, centrally located to visit lots of interesting places. It has a lovely pub that does excellent food within walking distance. The owners are always on hand if anything is needed without being intrusive. The hot tub is a relaxing bonus. I would recommend Pickles Hill cottage to anyone looking for a wonderful, relaxing getaway from it all holiday. We will definitely be back.
A lovely little property in such a beautiful place. Would highly recommend.
Lovely cottage in a beautiful area with walks on your doorstep, pub just up the road that do gorgeous food. Hot tub is great to come back to after a long walk. Cottage is very clean and comfortable with everything you need, would recommend to anyone
Elaine
This is a gorgeous cosy cottage with a fab hot tub in a beautiful area, short walk to a pub that also serves good food. Lovely walks to Bronte falls. Haworth isn't far away and is a lovely place to visit. The owners are so helpful and kept in touch by messaging checking everything was ok and helped us out when we had an issue that was nothing to do with the cottage. We would definitely return and highly recommend. Everything was as described.
Rebecca
What a great place to stay. Highly recommend, you'd be in for a treat
Stephanie
Property was amazing and the owners are so lovely. It was the perfect location to explore Yorkshire and the surrounding areas.
Lovely cottage, ideal base and lovely local pub ! !
Christine
We enjoyed our time at Pickles Cottage. It's in a convenient location and was clean and comfortable. The hot tub was welcome.
The cottage was very cosy clean and very comfortable with beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. Very well equipped. The toaster did appear to be broken and the lights in the lounge were not very bright. There appeared to be three bulbs missing just a little glitch Overall very satisfied and had a lovely weekend
Sharon
This is a lovely, cosy, spotless, well maintained cottage. We had a very enjoyable stay. The hot tub is a perfect way to relax after a long walk with our dog, Louis. The welcome gifts were much appreciated. I would recommend Pickles Hill cottage without hesitation. Thank you for a lovely stay!
Beverley
Lovely cosy cottage. My husband, myself, my sister and the dog stayed for a week, and had a wonderful time. Cottage had everything we needed and more. Lovely and clean. 1 evening the lights went out and Jonny was round to fix them within 30 mins. Jonny and Leanne were perfect hosts. So funny being eye to eye with a sheep, while washing up. Perfect Location, we went to Haworth, Harrogate and Skipton, as well as a trip to Manchester for the Coronation Street Experience. We would love to come back,
Charlie
Lovely cottage with everything you need in a beautiful location. Grouse Inn and Hawthorn are not far away with gorgeous food as was the afternoon tea at Cobbles and Clay, all recommended by Leanne and Johnny.
This is an absolute gem of a cottage in a gorgeous location the hot tub really is the cherry on the top. We had a fabulous stay here as a family of 3 one 4 year old child and can't rate the cottage highly enough. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for a great holiday. The cottage itself feels very rural especially with the sheep watching you cook your breakfast through the back window and is small enough to feel cosy but big enough to house 3 people comfortably. There is a 30 minute walk into Oakworth with lovely views, and our little boy managed the walks nearby very well. The local pub The Grouse is also top notch and only 10 minutes walk down the road. The hosts are also very kind and helpful. Honestly one of our favourite places we have ever stayed in the UK.
Enjoyable stay at Pickles cottage. Comfortable, clean, well equipped, and beautiful views. Lots of places to visit and explore within a short drive.
Safeera
We had a fantastic stay and enjoyed our time very much. The owner was an absolutely amazing person who left us a beautiful bouquet as she knew we just got married. This really made our stay extra special. The cottage is perfect and has lots of room as well as a hot tub outside that we very much enjoyed. I would definitely recommend and will be returning soon
Pickles Hill Cottage is a home away from home. Spotlessly clean, very comfortable and the owners are on hand on the rare occasion you may need them. Everything is provided for a relaxing break and there is even a great pub The Grouse within easy walking distance should you not wish to cook every night. The hot tub is an added bonus to ease aching muscles after a longor short! walk. I would recommend this cottage to anyone needing a break away from it all for a while. Thanks to Leanne and Johnny for providing this little gem of a cottage.
Heather
A really lovely cottage in a great location. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, everything has been thought about and provided for. Very warm and cosy being up on the moor, wuth amazing views. The hot tub is the added bonus after a long walk from the doorstop. So many amazing walks, steam train and bus route nearby. Close to beautiful Haworth and so easy to get to other local towns. Would recommend this cottage without a doubt.
Tracey
My daughter and I had a wonderful stay at pickles hill cottage. Leanne was the perfect host and even brought us some chocolates and hot cross buns for our arrival
Lovely little cottage. Well equipped. Leanne was very welcoming. The Grouse inn only a 5 min walk from cottage which serves lovely food and great views. Haworth only a few minute drive away. This cottage is ideal for a relaxing weekend or week. Would highly recommend
Enjoyed our stay at Pickles despite the weather. Would stay there if returning to the area.
Lovely, cosy cottage in a beautiful location in West Yorkshire. Seeing the sheep every day by the kitchen window was a fantastic bonus and we felt very close to nature. Great location to lots of amenities and local towns, such as Haworth and Keighley. Lots of beautiful walks nearby, especially Bronte Waterfall and Top Withins. Very attentive hosts who dealt with requests promptly.
Nicely decorated, comfortable and with all amenities for a short stay.
We had a really lovely stay at 6 Pickles Hill , only a short stay but we shall definitely return for a longer one soon . Very comfortable and we'll equipped right in the heart of the Yorkshire countryside , we visited Howarth , Bingley , Saltaire , and Hebron Bridge , all worth a visit

Bowland Wild Boar Park - PR3 2QT

Head for the Bowland Wild Boar park and we don't think you will be disappointed.  A popular attraction in Preston there is so much to do for the whole family.  From picnics, walks and wildlife to experiencing feeding the animals you are sure to have a memorable day out.  Also popular is the kids tractor play area.  For rest and relaxation the cafe is ideal serving hot drinks and snacks with a lovely view over the pond and wildlife feeding station.  The Forest of Bowland has been declared an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Fountains Abbey - HG4 3DY
about 25 Miles
This is an outstanding world heritage site located close to Ripon in the North Yorkshire area. Nature lovers will be in their element with an abundance of wide open spaces to explore and there are special guided tours for families.  Some of the highlights may include seeing wild deer and bats during your visit.  The grounds are fantastic to wander round but there is also an Elizabethan Mansion, Victorian Church, Georgian Water Garden and the finest example of Cistercian Abbey ruins in the country - Well worth a visit!
Xscape Castleford - WF10 4TA
about 27 Miles
Located in the Castleford area of West Yorkshire this is a fun family day out with loads of activities under one roof.   For the energetic there is a real snow slop for skiing and rock climbing walls.  For the more laid back then there is a cinema and bowling alley.  This place caters for all ages and there are seasonal events on throughout the year too. This attraction is described on their website as the "Ultimate Entertainment Destination " so why not check out their site for the latest admission costs and opening times?
Lightwater Valley - HG4 3HT
about 29 Miles
Situated in the Ripon area of North Yorkshire this popular theme park makes a fantastic day out for the whole family.  The more daring will love the big and thrilling rides such as Raptor Attack, The Ultimate and Trauma Tower.  For the little ones there are some excellent attractions such as Flying Camels, Dodgems and a Magic Wheel.  Toddlers will like the Dragon Boats and the Lightwater Express amongst other things. There are over 40 rides and attractions in total and we think this is excellent value for money too.  If you book your tickets in advance online you can save even more money and beat the queues.
