About this property
Peaceful 18th Century Weaver's cottage , perfect for a weekend retreat!!
An old stone terrace cottage , with all the character you would expect from an historic property built in 1759. This delightful spot has fantastic views from the lounge and the front bedrooms, situated as it is in the heart of the West Yorkshire countryside and the Hamlet of Oldfield. With 2 wood burning stoves (one with small oven), stone walls, exposed beams and a relaxing vibe, this house is not only peaceful but near to walks, cafés, pubs and restaurants and is also a popular cycling area. The cottage has a raised platform outside with benches, unfortunately not the garden in front, but with the countryside literally on the doorstep and a small park 100 metres away there is plenty of outdoor space to relax in. There is also an outbuilding that can be used as a bicycle store for up to 3 bikes if requested. If you want to just relax, this is a fantastic property to re energise your soul.

Why they chose this property
We bought this property as our quest to buy a bigger house near our current home in the Peak District had fallen flat. With our search extended, we happened upon this cottage and instantly got that feeling. It is our peaceful retreat and we love it!
What makes this property unique
Peace and quiet, walks, Yorkshire, nearby villages and towns and the mood of the house can feel the history.
