About this cottage rental
Set beneath the landmark Victoria Tower on Castle Hill, the cottage enjoys a glorious south-facing position near the historic village of Almondbury, one of Yorkshire’s oldest recorded settlements. Draped in wisteria, Woodlea’s stone exterior hints at the warmth and elegance that lie within.
Inside, you’ll find original mullioned windows, exposed beams, and two welcoming fireplaces—one with a crackling wood-burning stove and the other an open hearth. Thoughtfully updated throughout, the cottage blends its rich heritage with contemporary comfort to create a space that feels both luxurious and homely.
There are two inviting sitting rooms—one with a piano and open fire, the other perfect for relaxing by the stove after a day exploring. The well-equipped kitchen and adjoining dining area provide the ideal spot for anything from a hearty breakfast to a candlelit dinner.
Outdoors, guests can unwind in the sunny front patio garden or the quiet rear courtyard, both ideal for alfresco dining or simply soaking up the scenery. With ample off-road parking, a utility room, and four beautifully styled bedrooms—three king-size (one with an en suite) and a twin—Woodlea Cottage is perfectly suited for families, couples, or friends looking for a memorable Yorkshire getaway.
Beyond the cottage, you’ll find a wealth of places to explore. Enjoy a lively night out in Holmfirth at the Picture Drome, or discover the charm of Honley, Slaithwaite, and Marsden. A little further afield, Hebden Bridge and Haworth, home of the Brontë sisters, offer a perfect day trip. Families will love Cannon Hall Farm and Pigs in the Wood, while art lovers can visit The Yorkshire Sculpture Park, The Hepworth Gallery, and Salts Mill.
Whether you’re seeking countryside calm, family adventures, or a touch of Yorkshire heritage, Woodlea Cottage is a truly special place to stay.
