  • "A little difficult to find."

    Your satnav will take you into a cul-de-sac. Follow the instructions you've been sent to the letter. The apartment is clean and comfortable. Heating is perfect: the thermostat is very efficient. Powerful shower. The bed is firm and comfortable will cool, crisp bed linen. The kitchen is well-equipped. A few gripes which slightly impaired my stay. There is no Sky TV as advertised. Apart from the first freeview channels reception is wobbly and for the last two days the set would not switch on at all. W-fi is intermittent. I had to use my phone as a hotspot and therefore ad to pay for data use. The oven doesn't work. The control knob came off in my hand and inside there were a pair of dirty baking trays. There were only three coathangers.

Where you’ll be staying

OAKWORTH

Haworth 1 mile; Skipton 10 miles.

Oakworth is a small Pennine village just a short drive from Haworth, overlooking the Worth Valley, made famous by the filming of the classic 1970 film version of E.E. Nesbitt's novel, The Railway Children. Besides its close proximity to Haworth and the moors, Oakworth has an attractive ornamental park, and is within easy reach of the town of Keighley. Nearby Haworth was home to the famous Bronte sisters, who were much-inspired by the surrounding moorland. Haworth has a myriad of curiosity and antique shops, alleyways and cobbled streets creating a wonderful period atmosphere, and all this against a backdrop of countryside famously described in the novel Wuthering Heights. Nearby, the famous Worth Valley Railway, an authentic steam railway brought to prominence in the film The Railway Children, makes a lovely day out, with a regular service to the old village of Oxenhope. The area is full of popular places to visit, including the Bronte Parsonage Museum, East Riddlesden Hall, and the Museum of Rail. The market town of Skipton, Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, is just a short drive away, and also within reach are elegant Harrogate, and vibrant Leeds and Manchester.
