Steeped in history and retaining several notable buildings from as far back as the 16th Century, the village even appeared in the Domesday Book. The nearby town of Holmfirth is best known as the home of Compo, Cleggy and Nora Batty from the long running comedy series 'Last of the Summer Wine', whilst the Colne Valley, also close by, is home to fictional 'Skelthwaite' from the successful series 'Where The Heart Is'. Almondbury is well situated to offer beautiful countryside and great walking opportunities, and is within easy reach of the northern Peak District and the southern Dales. Alternatively, the historic city of York, elegant Harrogate, and vibrant Leeds are all close by.

From heather-clad moors and limestone scars, to market towns and the steady pace of country life - the sublime Dales await you! Where else in Britain is it as satisfying to sit and do nothing as it is to explore the numerous pursuits on offer?

Annual family holiday & we always choose a luxury house that has a pool. This is by far the dirtiest place I have ever stayed. It's also fallen into disrepair. It is in need of a deep clean & serious maintenance attention. The pool was too cold to use. The mattress in the master bedroom is disgusting I've never seen a mattress so stained. Fire surround plaster cracked & the fire didn't work. Bulbs out. Sofas torn & poor quality you could feel the wood frame when you sat down. Curtains frayed & one was hung inside out. Cracking on the stairs. Someones clothes in one of the drawers in the master bedroom. The blinds didn't cover the windows, letting light in. Black mould round the windows. Bedding was stained. Towels looked like they'd been used. Kitchen blinds covered in greasy dust. I could go on but I'll let the pictures tell the story. The description uses phrases like: 'a luxury holiday' 'outstanding' 'lavish cottage' 'opulently appointed' 'stunning Almondbury cottage' there is so much wrong with this place. It could be a stunning property if it was clean & well maintained

We loved our stay at Clouds Hill for my partners birthday! The property has been updated since the photos in terms of furtinure in lots of the sitting areas being new, had seen reviews saying things were in bad condition, we did not find this at all, it was lovely. Loved using the pool which was a little cold when you first got in but was offset by the room being boiling so didn't really matter. Few walls in here and the gym could do with a bit of TLC but didn't take away from our enjoyment at all. Kitchen had ample plates, and pans/dishes for cooking and was all easy to use - but we couldn't find any cutlery! (Not sure if we were just being daft to not find it but couldn't find it anywhere) Overall we had a brilliant time and it was a great to celebrate a special occassion with friends!

Clouds Hill is a great place to have a girls getaway to.. The house is spacious, comfortable and warm. Some of the bedrooms are rather small, but that's not really a problem as you only sleep there. It is rather echoey though, so even though the house is on 3 floors, you can hear everything throughout. The lounge and dining room are perfect and the swimming pool is fantastic. There are a few things that need mending, or replaced. A bit of extra care is required to make this a perfect venue.

We had the most wonderful holiday last weekend at Clouds Hill.. The photographs really don't do the house justice, it's just all totally amazing. The whole family had a wonderful weekend either in the swimming pool, gymnasium or just chilling out in the huge house. Would recommend Clouds Hill as the place to stay

Absolutely amazing house! Photos don’t do it justice. Immaculately clean with everything you need to enjoy the weekend. Close enough to shops & pubs but nice & quiet area. Loved the pool & seating area, lovely, warm & comfortable. Had a great stay & booked again for next year!

We recently visited Clouds Hill for our Annual Family weekend of festivity.. Location was really good, you can walk to nearby village in only a short time. The house itself was beautiful, very spacious and inviting. There was everything you needed there (towels included) and it has a lovely sized swimming pool to. The bedrooms are all good sized. Clean and tidy. Plenty of parking space and the security of a electric gate also. Thank you for a lovely stay.

There were very few glasses in the property and the hair dryer did not work.. The tin opener was broken and the peeler didn’t peel. However the owner sorted these issues the day we raised it with him. However one of the reasons we chose this particular property was because it had WiFi. My daughter has exams next week and needed to study. Most of the revision materials are online. The WiFi wasn’t working for over a week which meant we had to buy extra data to enable her to study. This problem should have been brought to BT’s attention prior to the day of our arrival as the owner said he had been having issues with the broadband. The photos made the property look high end but in reality it wasn’t. The beds were very uncomfortable, even with the mattress toppers. Some of the slats were broken. The sofas were very low and awkward to get out of and again uncomfortable. One end of one sofa was broken. There were cracks in the floor tiles. The showers were dirty and mouldy. Some of the windows had mould in the corners. The set up wasn’t practical in terms of layout. The dining area next to the kitchen wasn’t big enough and the dining room was not close to the kitchen. There were lots of rugs which were trip hazards. One of the bar stools in the kitchen was assembled back to front! I would be interested to know if anyone from Sykes has actually stayed in this property. If so, did they also find the layout bizarre. Having a swimming pool is great, but it really wasn’t worth the money. Do you do an inventory or check that the property meets the minimum requirements? Unfortunately it was a poor experience.

Everything was better then expected.. A few sofas could do with some TLC but that’s the only thing I’d say could do with being improved. Everything was clean, the bedding smelt of washing powder and really fresh. The bathrooms were clean and everything was well stocked (had to nip out for more toilet roll) it was a fantastic stay. We loved it. More then enough seating and areas to relax. The pool was the perfect temperature (leisure pool temp) We didn’t want to leave. The pictures don’t do it justice enough, it’s beautiful. Every person staying had nothing but good things to say.

Lovely house.. Very well presented. Host was great if we had any questions whilst we stayed there.
Miss Doyle

The house itself it’s amazing.. The furnishings leave a lot to be desired! Some of the couches are broken leaving them very uncomfortable and the slats kept falling out of some of the beds. I think because of how lovely the house is we expected it to be furnished to a 5* level but it was more a 2/3* level. The pool was really cold and we had a 5 month out who couldn’t go in due to the temperature. We did contact the owner who came to have a look but unfortunately the temperature didn’t increase. Most of the equipment in the gym doesn’t work or is very rickety. The house needs some TLC as some of the paint was coming off the walls, floor tiles cracked/loose, bulbs out or a mixture of different bulbs in the same room (we saw this on another review and thought they were being picky but when your there it makes a difference).

The house was lovely, I was here for my 60th birthday with my children and grandkids, they loved the pool and we loved the surrounding areas, we have recommended it already to friends who loved the pictures we had taken, there is a few minor repairs that need to be done to the house, like door handles were loose, and curtain pole in the lounge loose, hoover wasn't working which my hubby stripped down and sorted it out haha, needs someone to go in and snag it, but it didn't put me off, we had a fab time and hopefully go back again , thank you

What an amazing place to stay.. Clouds Hill allows you to live in luxury for a week. The pool was the biggest winner but there are plenty of showers and two Jacuzzi baths to enjoy too. The kitchen is well appointed and there are lots of different options for relaxing after a day out in one of many nearby attractions.

Whilst the property was spacious, well-equipped and generally clean, it was in need of general TLC.. For example, the decoration was very scuffed and marked in places, the furniture was very worn (facings peeling off chairs and settees), the patio furniture was rusty, the kitchen utensils limited and the carpets stained. There were curtains in the lounge but every other room had Venetian blinds. This made it impossible to shut out the light so that the bedrooms became bright as soon as the sun rose. Due to the arched shape of some of the windows, there were no coverings or just fixed blinds, which exacerbated the problem. The broadband speed was appallingly slow with the connection failing on three occasions. These factors detracted from what was an otherwise exceptionally well thought out and pleasantly situated property.

We stayed at the clouds hill for a week for our 25th Wedding Anniversary. The house is great and very spacious. It fitted us all in just nicely with extra space . It is very clean and has everything you need while your away. Plenty of cutlery.plates,pans, cups everything you need. We had a great stay. It is in a lovely place and very quiet and peaceful with plenty of places to visit . The swimming pool is just a bonus . My children spent a lot of time in there and also in the gym. The garden is in great condition and been lovely sun bathing in this weather . I look like I’ve been abroad am that tanned. We are very happy with our stay at the clouds hill and we would definitely stay there again

Beatifully designed house, very spacious for 7 adults and 2 children.. Quality of furnishings was a little shabby as we understand the property is often booked for stag and hen parties. Having an indoor pool was great for the children.

Booking the house via Sykes was very easy and they dealt promptly with a couple of pre-holiday queries we had. First impressions of the house itself was 'stunning'. Having the pool in the building was the selling point for us and we used it 2 or 3 times a day. It was a good depth for children (we had an infant, 3, 4, 7, 9 and 11 year old. The pool was nice and warm. The pool room itself got pretty hot, but french doors to outside made it easy to control temp once inside. The house layout worked well for our group, which was two families of 5. Plenty of bedroom and bathroom space. The lounge and dining room we a good size for the group and we never felt on top of each other. There were some niggles during our stay (a blocked drain on the first day), but after a call to the owner, it was resolved the next morning. The list below are a number of small things which we'd consider more as 'areas for improvement' rather than 'complaints'. Nothing major, but after a week of use, they were starting to get a bit annoying. I think the house would benefit from the owner living in it for a week or two to highlight the areas that need a bit of attention. Overall though, we'd consider booking again. -polished tiled floors in main hallway and kitchen was very slippery -kitchen utensils need attention (no wooden spoons, broken can opener, no decent spatula, broken pan handles) -cooker hood too low...constantly banging my head -mismatched and old breakfast barstools -needs twice as many teaspoons -needs twice as many tumblers -need plastic tumblers/bowls for kids -pool filter room noisy 24/7 -white carpets in dining room (nerve-wracking with kids vs bolognese) -broken blinds in main bedroom -treacherous decking outside...very slippery, though we did visit in autumn -sofa springs saggy -lots blown bulbs in pool room -three-storey living is tiring!

I stayed at clouds hill this May with my family . We had a lovely stay . The house is very spacious and clean . There is more than enough room for 10 adults to stay. The swimming pool was fantastic and warm which also includes a sitting area and a gym . Our children spent most of they're time in there . We loved it . I would definitely re visit clouds hill. The area is very nice too and peaceful and there is plenty of places to visit in Huddersfield and holmfirth . It has everything you need for a holiday away . If your looking for a place to take the family then clouds hill is your place . We all had a lovely time

I visited clouds hill in April this year. I wasn't looking forward to the stay due to the bad reviews but it was too late to cancel. But to my surprise the house is no where near as bad as people are saying in the reviews. The place is very clean and spacious and as everything you need . Bit of wear and tear to the house but considering it's being rent out it's not a surprise . I had a very nice stay there with my family and the children loved it. There is nice places close by to visit and the owner is very helpful and polite . I would highly recommend this holiday house as it's in a lovely location of huddersfield and a nice place to stay in . It could do with a bit of touch up on the painting but as far as that I can't say anymore . I was very happy with my stay

We came to stay at this so called luxury cottage with a group of friends. We always go away together at this time of year and always look for something special. But Clouds Hill is definitely nothing special.We were attracted to the property by the description given and the fact that it had a pool. We all felt the same way about the standard of the property and its cleanliness POOR. A bin in one of the bathrooms had not been emptied, The sofas in the living room are old, sagging and worn out, the kitchen/crockery equipment is miss matched, chipped or broken. To top it all off the pool had so much chlorine in it that we could not use it. It was so strong just walking into the pool area left everyone with running and stinging eyes. If your looking for a luxury break DONT go to clouds hill.

Described on Sykes cottages as a luxurious and lavish cottage - in reality it was anything but... 2 very small bedrooms with no direct access to a shower - assume they have to use the gym shower down 2 flights of stairs. 2 bedrooms share jack and Jill shower room - with low set (futon style) beds. 1 master bedroom with en-suite. None of the jacuzzi baths worked, the fire in the sitting room was broken, none of the gym equipment was in a fit state to be used, no extractor fans working in the showers or the kitchen, wooden blocks supporting sagging broken framed settees. The whole place is in need of an overhaul; with litter and dust under beds and scuffed paint work throughout, poor quality beds and linens, lights not working, insufficient tablewear, mismatched glasses and chipped crockery ( some of which resembled dog bowls!) I could go on... On a positive note: the area was lovely with nice walks and a great local pub. Sykes cottages offered very little when we complained to them, despite using them many times before... Very disappointing!!!

A lovely spacious house with an air of luxury. Fabulous master bedroom but three of the other bedrooms are small. In the one other reasonable sized room, the mattress did not fit the bed properly and a member of our party found it a little uncomfortable. The sitting room is enormous! Fitted us all in comfortably and was very relaxing. The older members of our party struggled to get out of tbe sofas which are very low and deep. Kitchen was great to cook in, well equipped on the whole, but for a house that sleeps 10 why are there only 5 dessert spoons, two stools at the island, and only 4 chairs in the breakfast room? Surrounding area was very nice. Terrific walk up to Castle Hill for stunning views. The pool is fantastic. Our kids were down there three times a day! Gym room less inviting as it was suffering a bit from condensation. Our party of 10 ranged in age from 14 to 85. On reflection I'd say the house was better suited to the two younger of the three generations, but we all had a really good week.

Clouds Hill was absolutely perfect for our group of 10 girls, we had a fab time. The pool and gym area really made it that extra bit special, the size of the lounge, TV and beautiful fire, really added to our stay and made us feel cosy and right at home. The bed's were incredibly comfortable and there were plenty of bathrooms/showers/toilets even for 10 girls all getting ready at the same time for a night out!! Location was easy to find and only a short car journey into the centre of Huddersfield, making it an ideal location for both staying in and going out. Overall fantastic weekend in a lovely house.

I was reluctant to post a negative review, but have monitored reviews for this property and as we were so terribly disappointed feel that future guests deserve to see both sides. We booked this as 'luxury' - it really wasn't. The house was, once, built as a luxury property, but lack of care and investment, not to mention cleaning, has left it in a poor condition. Lights were out, doors didn't close, bin liners didn't fit in bins, tea towels and towels, bin liners etc were not provided. None of the gym equipment worked - it was rusted and dangerous. The whirlpool bath jets hadn't been cleaned and black and green gunk filled the bath when turned on. The 'decking' was full of water as the drainage didn't work on the balcony, and if you stepped onto it filthy water and cigarette butts swamped the decking. The bar b q had never been cleaned and was full of rubbish - the decking at the back was full of moss and unuseable, the blinds at the windows were damaged and didn't close properly - one window had no blinds at all! Dining chairs were bent and unuseable, there was insufficient table cutlery and not enough plates for the entire party - despite being less than the number the property is advertised for. We were instructed to remove our bedding, and found stained and filthy mattresses. It was, in all a very disappointing experience, which left us angry at the advertising for the property which we felt was misleading. To be fair we did receive a part refund - none of our complaints appeared unexpected by the property owner, and I suspect we weren't the first to raise them. If you are looking for a luxury property this isn't it.

Clouds Hill is a beautiful home and a real treat to stay in. It was very well kitted out and the beds were very comfy. It was a real luxury week, with the pool and jacuzzi baths, loads of space and all the mod cons. It is well positioned for York, Leeds, the Moors and Halifax. We hope to go back in the future.

This is a lovely big house with the 'wow' factor when you first go in. Unfortunately there were a few problems. This was one of the most expensive houses we have rented and would really have expected the little things like bin bags, washing up liquid and toilet rolls. Luckily I had taken a couple of black bags with me otherwise I am not sure where we would have put our rubbish to take out to the bin. Smoke alarm in kitchen not working (unfortunately we burnt some toast). Fire in front room not working.. All the showers require shower mats, they are very slippy and dangerous when wet! And in all there were 9 lights not working!!! For the amount paid for this house we really expected everything to be perfect but thankfully it did not ruin our weekend. The kids loved the pool.

We have just spent Easter week at Cloud Hills with all of our family. This is a lovely place to stay. There were 10 of us and we did not feel at all crowded. The swimming pool was well used by us all. All of the bedrooms are nice and spacious, as are all of the other rooms. There was only one minor problem, a bit of a dodgy shower in one of the bathrooms, which in no way spoilt our time here. The weather was good to us which helped, but even if it hadn't been we would have been more than happy to spend our time in the house. If you are looking for a place to take all of the family, then you won't go wrong by renting Cloud Hills.

Cannot recommend this property enough. We stayed here for the week with adult friends over the weekend ,and then for the rest of the week with 6 teenagers for our sons 16th birthday.The property is so spacious that there was plenty of room for all of us.The swimming pool was constantly warm and a good size even with 10 adults in and got used daily and sometimes till very late.The boys had all taken their mountain bikes so went out on some great rides but did say that the area although beautiful was very hilly. There is nothing much to do or see in Almondbury itself ,but we did visit local towns and had a few nice days out .We were very lucky with the weather and had sunshine every day.We all look forward to visiting again soon.

We stayed at Clouds Hill last weekend with 4 other couples as part of our friends 25th Wedding Anniversary celebrations. The house is fantastic, it is extremely spacious and very nicely decorated. There is more than enough room for 10 adults to eat, drink and be merry, as well as the large living room there are other areas to relax and also lots of outside areas to enjoy. Added to this we spent lots of time in the pool which has a seating area for those who may not wish to swim but can feel part of the party. The house is in Almondbury which is only a small village but there are a couple of pubs which are worth a try and also enough shops to get any bits you need. There is plenty to do nearby, Holmfirth and Huddersfield are only a few miles away and the taxis service was good during our stay. There is parking for 6 cars easily. All in all if you are looking for a place to spend time with friends or family I couldn't recommend this place highly enough.

We received a warm welcome by the owner who briefly showed us around the property. There were no towels put out in any of the bathrooms and had to hunt around to find them. The swimming pool was the major selling point for booking this property, which was very well maintained and it made the stay worthwhile. The house was spacious, comfortable and very clean and situated in a quiet location. It was just the place to chill out and relax. The only down point was the constant humming noise from the pool pump cupboard which could be heard throughout the house.

Clouds Hill could be a luxurious property - it has a nice, warm swimming pool & changing area and a spacious lounge, dining room & common areas. However it has been cheaply furnished, so wear and tear are really showing eg damaged breakfast stools & rickety chairs. Service was poor - towels were stained (one with a dirty mark), stuck in a cupboard & not distributed to the bedrooms; no dishwasher tablets or dishcloth & pan scourer provided, minimal washing up liquid, no bin liners and no spare toilet rolls. What a shame - with a bit more care this could be a great place to stay.

This property is fantastic. My husband had his 60th birthday here; we booked it for the week and weren't disappointed. The standard of the property is exceptional. The pool is immaculate, warm, with steps at one end for easy access in and out. The kitchen is amazing and well equipped, the cooker is the best I have ever used. The bedrooms are all big and beautiful. The house is so pretty, near by there are shops and pubs and Castle Hill which has the most amazing views I have ever seen once you drive up to the top. Best break ever.

The whole family loved the stay there. Thank you so much for the experience.The pool was a big hit with all of us - especially the children. We invited our English family to this home and there was plenty of room for entertaining. The house was able to accommodate all of our individual needs for living, having fun, relaxing and there was still space left for relaxing.

The house was beautiful with the pool getting lots of use by all of the kids every day. Our two year old actually learned to swim with armbands he was in so much. It was an excellent size and depth for children. The kitchen was wonderful as the adults could sit at the breakfast bar chatting while cooking, and there was a table and chairs for the kids to sit at and play. The living room was a great size and very comfortable for the evenings, with a great sized TV.

Wow. What an amazing property. Myself and 9 other ladies have just had the most fantastic luxury weekend at Clouds Hill. The pool was much bigger than we thought and a welcome addition. Would highly recommend the property. In fact, if the owners ever need a house sitter, they just need to call!

Myself and my 9 friends really enjoyed our weeks holiday in this house. The house was gorgeous, and the swimming pool was bigger than we expected. The village was lovely and the local pub The Radcliffe Arms, was ever so friendly and welcoming. I would certainly recommend this house and area to my friends.

Clouds Hill is a little look into how it would be if you won on lotto. Our holiday was about the house swimming, huge meals with friends, relaxing.The space is wonderful and the furnishings comfortable It was a pleasure to cook in the gleaming kitchen and I fell in love with the snake tap over the kitchen sink!!! The owner met us and showed us around and was on hand via the telephone when the lights fused People laugh when I say we went to Huddersfield on holiday until I tell them about the house. We also found many places to eat and shop We worried a little over the off white carpets with wine, juice and felt tips and breathed a sigh of relief at the end of the week when no stains where evident The house could be more geared to eating in than out by providing some serving dishes but that's my only complaint We are at present thinking about booking again for 2014

The situation of the property was delightful with lovely views and a handy village location. The house was very spacious and the swimming pool warm and clean.

The House was ideal for a group of friends and made me feel like royalty for the week!! Swimming pool was well maintained and even managed a drink the local pub "The Woolpack". Overall, Top stay and would highly recommend.

It took us a while to get through the snow to the house, so we didn't plan on venturing out for a while, so can't say much about the area. We spent a lot of time in the swimming pool which was the highlight of the holiday. The house was lovely, although I wouldn't recommend it for those with disabilities or very young children.

Excellent property, no need to explore as I didn't want to leave the house. Swam every morning before breakfast, have never been able to do this in this country. Had an insight in to how I will live when I win the lottery!

We really enjoyed our stay - a family gathering for our Ruby Wedding. The owner met us there and showed us round - the personal touch was lovely. It was well placed for nearby towns, etc, though we stayed in the property most of the time, as we made very good use of the gym and the beautiful swimming pool. All the family, from a baby to great grandma enjoyed staying at Clouds Hill.

An excellent place for a family get-together. It was spacious enough to accommodate everyone (9 adults, 1 child, 1 baby) in absolute comfort. Very stylish and the beautiful swimming pool was used everyday.

Great space throughout the property and it was a decent layout in terms of the accommodation available on each floor. The large lounge was particularly good in terms of the size of the parties you would expect to rent a property of its type.

As a family we rented this house for a surprise 50th Birthday for 10 people, everything in the house was a described but slight shortage of saucepans for cooking meals for 10 people.....this was a struggle but we did manage.....and I would suggest oven gloves as we couldn't find any and we did come home with some blisters!!!!.....the house is situated in a very private location and handy for local shops if you don't mind a 10minute walk up hill.....amenities in the house were lovely and it's a shame the jaccuzzi in the one bathroom didn't work......but all in all a fantastic place to stay and 'Chill'

From the moment we arrived and were greeted by the owner and his wife and baby, you could see how beautiful this place was and it didnt let us down. Beautiful accommodation, clean, hi-tech and spacious, just what we wanted for a 50th birthday celebration weekend for my husband and close family. It was amazing and we couldnt fault it at all, although could have done with a few more saucepans and serving dishes, but we managed. The pool was beautiful and we swam twice a day and it was so private and warm. The gym we didnt use much but ideal for a workout if you wanted it. The rooms were spacious and very very clean and the master suite we stayed in was gorgeous, with a separate dressing room and en suite bathroom with jacuzzi bath and a double shower. It was light and airy and perfect in every way. I cannot stress enough how perfect this house was for what we wanted it for and we all had the time of our lives and are even talking about going back same time next year. It has made me come home and want to improve my kitchen now, as it was a dream to work in and lovely for a large family to all join in with the cooking and chatting over a glass of wine. Highly recommended.

Wow! This property was simply amazing! The overall design is to die for, this is a ultra modern home with wonderful balconies and outdoor living. The views are amazing, watching the sunset was something. The pool was the icing on the cake. This is a spacious home, ideal for a special occasion or if you simply want to pretend to have won the lottery!
