Farmstay vacation rentals in West Yorkshire

Perfect location to stay so that we could meet our relatives in The Pickled Pheasant for drinks and dinner. Jeff couldn’t have been more helpful and provided tea, coffee, milk and cereals for breakfast, which was much appreciated

Simon is a great host. Usually responds within 5-10 minutes with messaging. He is very knowledgeable and Friendly. The surrounding areas are farmland and hills with sheep, horses, and cattle. It is all very beautiful, including a very close-by footpath that overlooks a good bit of it. The area is very quiet also. Walking into town has some really nice views along the way and is approximately 20 minutes. The nearby town is holmfirth which has cafes all over, restaurants, bakeries, and large and small food shops. The drive in is very short and finding parking is only a challenge at busier times of day. Loved it. The flat has everything you’d need in it. It has a big comfortable bed. The views from the flat are exceptional and it is so restfully quiet inside. There was rarely much noise at all from outside unless a bird was perched really close by. There is no microwave in the kitchen but Simon let me borrow his because as i need one to live. Highly recommend.

I had an amazing time staying here! Susan was a fantastic host—so warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived. She gave us a lovely tour of the place and made everything so easy with her clear directions. It was super simple to get there. One of the highlights was how thoughtful she was—she even gave my son some books to read, which he absolutely loved. I mentioned we were planning a picnic with family, and she kindly provided a picnic blanket for us! The area itself is beautiful—private, quiet, and peaceful. It was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of London, and we were finally able to get some proper rest. I couldn’t recommend this place more. Thank you, Susan, for making our stay so special!

We loved our stay at Swallows Nest. A tranquil, peaceful stay which allowed us to remove ourselves from our busy lives for a few days and enjoy the quiet. Slaithwaite has loads to offer too in terms of good restaurants & nice walks… all in such a picturesque spot too. Everything in the cottage was top standard. Clean. Comfy beds. The shower is great and the bath is huge! Our daughter very much enjoyed her relaxing baths every evening. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. Rumpus is a must visit in town for the most delicious burgers using beef from the cattle at Sally’s farm. Thank you Sally for such a wonderful stay.

We had a great stay at Nicola's place, the cottage was beautiful as were it's surroundings. Very family friendly and Nicola even let our daughter feed the baby lambs. We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend

Absolutely loved it, beautiful views and excellent value for money. Thank you!

This little house is so cosy with the wood burner and everything you need for a getaway in the country. Watch the kestrels hunt through the window and make friends with the goats and chickens. Wonderful little brook and woods to explore and a wee paddle around the lake as dear ran past was such a treat. This is on a farm and not a palace but if you want a private getaway on a farm with access to beautiful countryside - this does the job perfectly. Thanks John for providing this space and being a great host

We had a lovely few days here. Our kids really enjoyed seeing the lambs in the field at the back of the property & the chickens roaming about. Tranquil setting, spotless, spacious house and responsive host, we would definitely stay again! Would recommend the Beehive pub which was only a short walk away, family friendly & delicious food.

Cate’s shepherd hut was amazing! Exactly as it was described and perfect. All the loving attention to the little details was obvious - from the tasteful and unique decor to the welcome Prosecco, WiFi speaker and large bath towels (who doesn’t love a bath sheet??!). The care that had gone into the build of the hut was obvious - beautiful joinery, everything neat and tidy and finished and maintained to perfection. My son and I (and our labrador) had a wonderful time and I’ll definitely be going back. Loved every single minute!

A beautiful house, in a glorious location, overlooking a golf course. Tom and Sarah were great hosts, who responded quickly to any queries. The open plan kitchen/dining/living area was great to gather and relax in. Beds were very comfortable and linen was spotless. The hot tub was an added bonus and great to spend time in on a cold winter evening! Very happy to recommend to other potential visitors.

Had a great stay in a beautiful property. Simon was friendly and helpful even providing us with fresh hen eggs for breakfast which were delicious. There was everything you could need at the property and we loved the games room with pool and darts. Walking distance to local pub with recomendations of the pizza from Simon which were delicious. Absolutely wonderful stay!

Our stay at Spinners Cottage was most enjoyable. The location was spectacular and the cottage itself was well equipped and welcoming. Fiona was charming and responsive and we enjoyed seeing her going about her farm duties - feeding the chickens, etc with her delightful dogs in tow. To be highly recommended.

We had a lovely and very comfortable stay of 3 nights. I wish we could have stayed longer. It was really enjoyable spending time in such a spacious, tranquille space, in excellent condition, thoughtfully decorated, so well furnished and equipped, and needless to say spotlessly clean. It was a fantastic first experience also for my son to feed the checking, and collect and eat their eggs. Thank you for welcoming us.

We stayed here to escape our busy lives as hosts for a few days. Absolutely perfect! Beautiful local walks, secure field for the dog and some lovely pubs close by. Nic is friendly and helpful. Would recommend to Future Guests! Thanks :) Ben, Laura & Luna

We had a lovely time away! Barry and Helen were brilliant hosts, we couldn’t fault it. Views were amazing and the place was cosy, clean and everything you needed ! We would definitely recommend and return ourselves.

Headed to the little cottage as a last minute trip looking for a quiet place away from fireworks for our dog. This delivered exactly what we needed. Really nice location in peaceful surroundings. Lovely walks close by and the cottage had all the essentials I needed to cook.

lovely cottage and amazing location

We really enjoyed our stay here. It is perfect for a short or long stay. Lovely scenery, very clean and comfortable and a very soft and comfortable bed. This is a nice place to stay whatever the weather due to the scenery and thoughtful touches and facilities you have from the hosts. You can follow the river walks nearby to the local villages and you can walk from here to NT Gibson Mill etc.

Firstly I like to thank emma for how accommodating you've been during our say. You couldn't do enough for us. and it didn't go unnoticed. we'd love to come back once the play barn has had its makeover. my only suggestion would be you get a pop up gazebo for over the hottub. With this coming at a additional cost and not been able to use it during the first night £60 seemed a little steep for the rental. But i do appreciate you don't control the weather. A pop up gazebo would have meant we could have used it both days. p.s thank you for posting back the things my kids left. buying them easter eggs and marshmallows for the fire pit. thank you

Once again, the perfect weekend break thanks to Andrew and Gill. The hosts were responsive and helpful as always, making sure all our needs are met. The cottage is fully kitted with all the necessities one would need for their break. Thank you Andrew and Gill for always going out of your way. Regards Sham, Anfal and Ayra

Beautiful quaint little cottage right in town and a 5 minute drive to Ilkley. Felt right at home and had everything we needed. Highly recommend

A fantastic cottage with beautiful views. Every room is thoughtfully equipped and tastefully decorated. The sauna has to be seen to be believed. We’ve never felt more relaxed. Brian and Carolyn were friendly and welcoming hosts.

A beautiful cottage with a stunning bathroom and lovely attention to detail. The little enclosed garden is perfect for a morning coffee and the log burner was a welcome treat, adding to the coziness in the evenings. The hosts were helpful and welcoming without being intrusive - the directions to the property were clear and I managed to locate the cottage without any problems.

We had a super stay at the Gatehouse Cottage with my mother who has mobility issues. The accommodation was perfect for the 3 of us and mum really enjoyed her stay. Everything was just perfect and as described , with super nice touches like the fantastic homemade cakes and jams. Lesley and Graham were always on hand to ensure we where all ok but not too intrusive. They where Super host and have a lovely cottage. We would highly recommend Gatehouse Cottage and it will definitely first on our list when looking to stay in the area again. Thank you for sharing your lovely home. Paul, Anne and Joyce.
