We loved walking to Hebden Bridge (train back), walking to Halifax and eating out in pubs including the Wainhouse Tavern. What a great shower and comfortable bed – why can’t all self catering places be like this? We hope to return, thank you.

Despite the low temperature, it was warm and cosy with all amenities available. The cottage is tastefully set out with a good mixture of the history and modern re-furbishment. Bedroom and bathroom are first class. Very safe and secure. We have family in the area and would not hesitate in re-booking in the future – have already recommended to friends.

When I walked into your cottage the first thing I said was “I’m home” and that is exactly what it has been for me. My safe place to rest after a long day of travel and exploring, my quiet place to read, journal and pray.

Dyer’s Cottage is exquisite.

Thank you for an amazing stay. Jane has been so efficient, welcoming and helpful that we cannot wait to come back. Dyer’s Cottage is beautiful.

Just perfect. Once I walked through the front door, I was totally at home.

Had a lovely “holiday” in the cottage whilst some major work was taking place on our house. Found some new walks and a new pub.

We had a great stay in your cottage whilst visiting family in Halifax. A perfect getaway.

We have had a wonderful time staying in your lovely cottage. We found everything we needed which enhanced our stay. The bed was comfortable and the shower was a pleasure to use.

A beautiful cottage ideally placed. Incredibly well equipped and modernised with great taste. A real ” home from home” experience.
