Surrounded by local reservoirs and spectacular Peak Park landscapes, the Cow Shed, with generous gated off-road parking, is an extraordinary ground-floor barn conversion.
Nestled in the historic village of Holme, opposite a gastro pub serving excellent food, the Cow Shed sleeps two and can be hired alongside The Hayloft (our ref: 1013614) and The Shearer's Hut (our ref. 1148316) allowing luxury accommodation for up to 6 people.
The surrounding area is popular with walkers, hikers,
cyclists and nature enthusiasts, making this an ideal retreat for those wanting to explore this beautiful part of Yorkshire and the Dark Peak. Located just outside of Holmfirth and the infamous Picturedrome music venue, the Cow Shed is also an ideal location for exploring National Trust treasures such as Chatsworth House, Quarry Bank Mill and Lyme Park.
The property has a small garden with picnic bench and chimenea overlooking the local reservoir and surrounding hillside - ideal for morning coffee, a picnic lunch or evening drinks. The property has a stunning Yorkshire stone flagged floor and boasts underfloor heating throughout, keeping you cool in the summer and welcoming you with a cosy warmth during the colder months.
The stylish kitchen/diner boasts views across the
National Park,along with granite worktops and a range of quality integrated appliances.
Relax in the sitting room on one of the two leather
sofas,choosing a good film to watch on the Smart TV as the warmth from the wood burning stove heats up the space and adds to the cosy ambiance.
The generously sized king-size double bedroom is served by anen-suite shower room with walk-in shower. The comfort height toilet is a welcome addition for anyone with mobility issues and a shower stool is available on request.
Holme Village is surrounded by hiking tracks and trails which are perfect for spotting a wide range of local wildlife. Set amongst the reservoirs of Ramsden, Riding Wood, Bilberry and Digley there is a wealth of long and short walks right on the doorstep. Using the car you can easily access the Hope Valley via the Woodhead Pass for walks that include Winnats Pass, Mam Tor and the Great Ridge. Other must see attractions such as the Blue John Mines and the Yorkshire Sculpture park are easily accessible and brilliant days out. The cities of Leeds,Sheffield and Manchester are nearby and can be reached by local bus and train services.
Two great pubs, serving fabulous food, are within walking distance of the Cow Shed (one directly across the road). The nearby market town of Holmfirth, which can be reached easily on local bus, offers a wider selection of amenities such as pubs with on-site breweries, artisan bakers, great cafes and restaurants plus attractions such as the Picturedrome, Ashley Jackson's Gallery, the Holmfirth Vineyard and of course Sids Cafe (made famous by the series Last of the Summer Wine). Annual festivals such as the September food and drink festival, the May folk festival, the June Arts festival, the July Motor sport festival and regular music and film festivals ensure that there is something for everyone.
The property may suit those who have mobility issues as
there are just three steps throughout the property and there is
wheelchair access directly from the driveway.
