5.0 / 5.0
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.

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.

We had a great experience staying at Dobb Cottage. Beautifully presented and clean. Beds were comfortable with a pillow choice. Lots of extras in cupboards and a much appreciated welcome pack. It felt like a home from home. Not sure why but I got the impression we would be entering straight into the bedroom but this door is securely locked and we used the door in to the courtyard where the car was parked. Quiet neighbourhood and friendly neighbours. Great pub down the road for dinner (Jacobs Well) but you'll likely have to book!
Thank you Jenny

Thoroughly enjoyed our Easter weekend break in Dob Cottage. The cottage was extremely clean, very comfortable and had a real homely feel. Ideally situated for a variety of shops, eateries & pubs; and just a short drive away from Holmfirth, too. Jenny had very kindly provided “the essentials” along with some extra treats which was a really nice touch. Will definitely be booking a return visit, as soon as we can. Mary & Joe (Liverpool).

Comfortable Holmfirth Cottage
Our stay in Holmfirth was most enjoyable. The standard and cleanliness of Jennys cottage was faultless. The seating area was one of the most comfortable, we have experienced in a holiday let.
Welcome goodies, much appreciated.
Although we didn't need to contact Jenny, after arrival, we knew she was available and near by.

Just Perfect
Stayed at Dob Cottage with my Daughter while visiting my elderly Mum who lives in Honley Village. Jenny was the perfect host, prior and during our stay and knew she was nearby should we have needed anything. Just loved Dob cottage, felt so at home straight away, very comfortable and had everything we needed, even a Christmas tree which was a lovely touch. Lots of thought gone into furnishing Dob Cottage and could have stayed longer. Will defiantly be back and 100% recommend this beautiful place.

Wonderful home from home. We were very comfortable there - hopefully may return in Spring when the weather is better.

Very comfortable cottage
We loved everything about this cottage: it is warm, spotlessly clean, comfortably furnished and tastefully decorated. It is very conveniently situated for food supplies and eating venues as well as being well located for exploring this part of Yorkshire. Our weekend stay seemed much too short - we were sorry to leave and hope to return before too long.

Lovely, comfortable cottage
My wife had a course to attend at Storthes Hall, and this cottage was ideally close to there. The cottage is in excellent condition and very well equipped. Everything worked. Very comfortable. Shops are within a handful of minutes walk. Numerous eating places within a few minutes walk or drive - Jenny's notes on where to eat were very helpful. Nice to meet Ronnie the French bulldog from next door. The Yorkshire Sculpture Park is worth a visit. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again.

We had a lovely week of exploring and were able to walk several treks without taking the car. when we did take the car, the options were maximised. We will return.
