Neighbourhood highlights

Ideally located for Shibden Valley adventurers, foodies or those seeking to explore Shibden Hall, discovering the secrets of Anne Lister. Giving easy access to the best walks around Calderdale, and cycle routes including the "Shibden Wall" featured on the Tour de Yorkshire with a half mile average 15% gradient, over the famous Yorkshire cobbles; and max gradient of 25%!

We have an abundance of traditional Pubs including the 2AA rosette Shibden Mill Inn which you can access via a short footpath 0.8 mile from the other side of the main road. Children can enjoy a 3 minute walk and discover Shibden Park, with boating lake, road tram, and miniature railway, large outdoor play area, wooded area, seasonal fairground and ice cream vans and large coffee shop. A short walk into town provides access to the impressive Piece Hall where inside the incredible walls you'll find Gin Lane for a Botanical Gin experience, Elder for scrummy taste sensation food, ohhhh their pies! Kids can walk the piece hall steps to stumble upon the toy shop Totally Awesome, and for the big kids and older teens there is Escaporium, get out if you can. Fancy a short road trip and walk? Stoodley Pike, Wainhouse Tower, Ogden Water Nature Reserve or Calderdale Way. And if your little ones still have energy - Another World Adventure Centre is the place to go, located close to Ogden Waters Nature Reserve, less than a 15 minute drive from the cottage. Or you can even try Halifax Ski and Snowboard centre for outdoor fun with kids snow tubing, only 5 minutes by car from the cottage!

Want to go a little further, hop onto the train at Hallifax and arrive in the vibrant city of Leeds in less than 45 mins, with an abundance of shops, eateries and cocktail bars. Love a cocktail and want t stay local? Head up the main road to Northowram and find 22 The Smoke House, who also do some super tasty nibbles! It's an uphill hike of about a mile, but when you are fresh you can giggle all the way back down to the cottage.

Hello, I'm Adam, I grew up in Halifax, West Yorkshire and have lived here my whole life. I was brought up with my family who ran grocery stalls at the Halifax Piece Hall and Halifax Borough Market. I am optimistic, cheerful and love communicating with people. I'm married to Sally and we have two boys. In my spare time I enjoy mountain biking around Halifax and surrounding areas, discovering new places to see. There are so many amazing trails to walk and ride, we really are spoilt for choice. As a family, we are explorers and love to travel and visit new destinations to see wildlife and nature. We find it important to make the most of our free days filling them with new exciting things to try and experience. We always finish the day with a good pot of tea...... Oooooh that's important! We are glad to welcome you to our home town. We will share places to visit and tips in our guest book, so you can make sure your trip is a memorable one too. Favourite quote. The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page. Favourite song. Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free To Wear Sunscreen
