Property code: 90209

This homely yet stylish farmhouse is located in the beautiful West Yorkshire countryside. Tucked away in the small village of Greetland on the outskirts of the Sowerby Bridge, this is the perfect base for families and friends looking for a countryside retreat with a range of local pubs all within a mile. Explore the 50 miles of moors and valleys along the stunning Calderdale Way. Set within the Peak District National Park and surrounded by traditional Yorkshire market towns, there is plenty to see and do. The historic mill and minster town of Halifax is 3 miles away, home to the celebrated Piece Hall, as well as Shibden Hall where Gentleman Jack was filmed. Walk the cobbled streets and explore the restaurants, bars and shops.

Walk through into the spacious entrance hall where you will find a utility room that is perfect for muddy boots, the downstairs WC, and the large cinema room so you can kick back with snacks and popcorn and watch your favourite film on a rainy day. Through into the contemporary but country-style kitchen fitted with an AGA and everything else you might need. The vast island is ideal for preparing a family Sunday roast which you can enjoy eating together around the table under the chandelier in the dining room. Play board games or video games on the Smart TV/DVD and PS4 in the first lounge with its gorgeous vaulted ceilings and untouched countryside views, or cosy up in front of the wood burner in the snug/second lounge with its deep cushioned sofas and Smart TV. Head up the stairs to find the family bathroom where you can soak in a bath full of bubbles after a busy day exploring the area. There are three bedrooms, a king-size with an en-suite shower room, and two doubles, one of which also has an en-suite shower room. All these rooms are tastefully decorated with ample storage and have lovely views.

To the front of the house is the large, gated courtyard. Access to the back garden can be gained through the living area and onto the large patio area. Here, you can enjoy al fresco drinks around the dining table or unwind in the wood-fired hot tub. At the top of the garden is the children's play area with swings and slides. The garden is enclosed and boasts glorious views.

The cottage is very nice. It was very clean and well presented. The conservatory was a fabulous room. The hot tub was very usable and was a great way to spend time on a starry night. The house is nicely positioned to enable visits to the Piece Hall and Shibden Hall in Halifax, whilst being quiet and peaceful, with only sheep as direct neighbours.

Great size garden space and patio for our family and dog. Plenty of different rooms for relaxing . Nice quiet location. Good pubs within walking distance..had most things we needed. Wood fired hot tub meant planning usage and a minor faff to get going. In general gave us what we needed for our family holiday.

Great house for a family gathering. The facilities are A1. Young children really enjoyed the garden an all the games etc in the house. I have suggested to owners to replace one of the double beds with 2 signals to improve options for visiting children. We would definitely te book when in the area.

Prospect House is in a peaceful location but not far from Halifax. The large enclosed garden was ideal to exercise our dog. There wasn't a welcome pack, which is unusual these days. Good communication from owner. We informed Claire that there wasn't internet connection and she arranged for someone to come around the following day to sort it. The hoRead moreuse itself was spotlessly clean but we found a few of the oven trays had been put back in drawer without being washed. Pub with nice food 5 mins walk. Hide

Very comfortable accommodation Lots of space inside and out although the awful weather prevented us from utilising the latter. House was warm and well equipped. Beds and showers all excellent. Ideal venue for Christmas. Highly recommended

A great place to stay with lots of space inside and out. Comfortable rooms, great kitchen and a large garden for play. We enjoyed the cinema room with the large screen, the playstation in the rainy hours and the field to play football. This, together with plenty of things to do and places to visit in the surrounding we could have stayed much longerRead more. Very friendly and helpful owners Claire and Sam that resolved issues promptly. Hide
