Description

Mrs Fig's House is a pretty 17th Century stone cottage sitting in the grounds of the owners' farmhouse close to the bustling village of Haworth in West Yorkshire. The owners have recently sympathetically refurbished the cottage using sustainable and environmental methods, bringing it into the 21st Century without losing its character and charm. Surrounded by stunning views of moorland and pasture and with fantastic walks from the front door, it is the perfect retreat for couples looking for a rural getaway. A perfect blend of traditional charm with modern day creature comforts.

The cottage is attached to the owners’ farmhouse with a 17th century barn separating the two. It is therefore quiet and secluded with the convenience of owners on hand to provide local knowledge or any help that might be required. Home baked bread welcomes you on arrival and more can be purchased during your stay..

Local area:
Mrs Fig's House is located 3 miles from Haworth with its independent shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes. The Worth Valley Railway, made famous by the Railway Children, is close by and literary enthusiasts can walk the moors in the steps of the Bronte Sisters and visit the Parsonage where they all lived.

Beautiful scenery is in all directions with Skipton and the Yorkshire Dales to the north and the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, in Lancashire, to the west. To the south is the quirky town of Hebden Bridge and to the east is the World Heritage site of Saltaire with the Hockney Gallery. All these places are within a half an hour's drive away.

There are walks from the door in all directions including moorland, pasture land, round reservoirs and along various way marked trails. Keen walkers can pick up the Pennine Way, just a short stroll across the fields, to walk into Haworth or to enjoy a drink and a meal at one of several local rural pubs. If in a less energetic mood, stunning views can be enjoyed from the cottage itself. There is a huge variety of birds that visit the garden and through the spring and summer, ground nesting birds such as curlews and oystercatchers are welcome visitors.

Guests who stay at Mrs Fig's House love the ambience of the cottage and appreciate all the work that has gone into its refurbishment. They enjoy the peaceful surroundings, open views, stunning walks from the door and the proximity to great places to enjoy local history, good food and drink. We hope we can look forward to welcoming you to share these experiences.
