This lovely, quirky Grade II listed terrace cottage is tucked away down a pedestrian lane and provides wonderful views overlooking the town of Holmfirth. Enter into the kitchen, where you will find a stone floor, exposed beams and a delightful old stone fireplace with woodburning stove by the dining table. Up to the first floor sitting room is a wooden floor, open stone wall and warming woodburning stove, from where views over the town can be seen, and from the sitting room is another staircase leading to the second floor bedroom, with mullioned windows, wooden floor and exposed beams. This is a charming, cosy cottage complete with small patio and a low stone wall, from where views of Holmfirth can again be seen, along with hills beyond, making this a perfect place to enjoy a morning cup of tea. The town of Holmfirth, famous as being the setting of Last of the Summer Wine, offers a selection of old stone cottages and a number of festivals throughout the year, as well as shops, pubs and restaurants. Within reach is the wonderful Peak District National Park, along with the cities of Leeds, Manchester and Sheffield. This is an ideal cottage for a romantic escape at any time of the year.
