Didn't quite meet expectations
Fabulous rural location overlooking the water. A great base for our 2 week family holiday. Walks around the reservoir are lovely and local pubs offer great food and i would highly recommend the Fleece. One of the rooms is described as a twin but both of the 1st floor rooms seem to be single. There are a lot of thoughtful touches throughout the house eg games, books, kitchen implements. It has all amenities required. Unfortunately it wasn't as clean as we'd have liked. The attic room is very cute and has great views, but not very practical with not being able to stand up straight due to the low ceiling. We both banged our heads a few times. We encountered a few issues including the shower stall not draining at first so we couldn't use it till the handyman to came to unblock it. There was an issue with a bedroom light that continually flickered. The front door handle broke so couldn't be opened from outside. We were able to use the back door instead. I do need to add, the owner was easy to contact and very responsive to get things fixed, which was great, and very much appreciated. She also offered us a partial refund because of the issues.

Good Cottage
It was a lovely stay and local area was nice. I recommend the pickled pheasant pub. The bike shed was full so we couldn’t use it unfortunately. The house was very cozy with lots of blankets, nice stay. Great views too.

Short family break
We hadn’t appreciated what a gorgeous location this property was in. The view from the front of the cottage over the reservoir is gorgeous, and a first floor reading nook is so cosy and gives the feeling of being by the sea side! The property is really tastefully decorated, making it feel like a home from home. The check in process was really smooth and easy to understand. The weather during our visit was terrible but we would love to come back again with better weather to take advantage of all the local area has to offer. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely brilliant stay
Our stay at Martha's Cottage in Holmfirth was absolutely enchanting. The cottage provided a warm and inviting home away from home, equipped with all the amenities needed for a comfortable visit. Meticulous attention to detail was evident, with kitchen staples such as sugar, tea, coffee, and herbs thoughtfully provided along with all other necessities needed for a comfortable stay. The neighbours were incredibly welcoming and delightful. Situated in a peaceful and idyllic location, the cottage was an ideal retreat to relax, enjoy the beautiful surroundings, and listen to the soothing natural sounds. The cottage's picturesque setting, with views of the reservoir, presented excellent opportunities for leisurely walks and explorations. Holmfirth captivated us with its charming village ambiance, excellent shops, and superb dining options. We had a splendid week and eagerly look forward to returning to Martha's Cottage in the future. The landlady was exceptionally attentive to our inquiries, ensuring a memorable stay. Thank you, Marie.

Cosy, well-equipped cottage in a stunning location. Lovely views of the reservoir from all the windows at the front of the property. It feels remote yet is only a few minutes from town so offers the best of both worlds. The host, Marie, was easy to get hold of and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Great location for hikes in Dark Peak
We loved the location and felt very much at home in a comfortable home. Particularly liked the armchair in the window overlooking the reservoir. We were walking 7 “Ethels” in the Dark Peak and all were easily accessible from Martha’s Cottage so ideal for our purposes. Pie Night at the Pickled Pheasant was also a nice discovery!

Stunning location
Very well equipped and tastefully decorated cottage with amazing views over the reservoir and Holme valley. Local walks and places to eat are convenient. Only one thing wasn’t quite perfect. The key safe is near the ground and hard to access for those of us who aren’t as mobile as we used to be. Otherwise a wonderful place to stay.
