Owner Cath has taken great care in the presentation of the cottage, the accommodation is all on ground floor level, it is stylishly furnished with a calm, neutral colour palette throughout, there is a cosy log burner for chilly evenings, a hot tub for soaking any aching muscles after a day rambling across the hills and what could be better than climbing into a four poster bed for a relaxing night’s sleep.

Nestled amongst the glorious countryside of West Yorkshire it is ideally placed for discovering Brontë Country in all its glory, whether you are wandering the pretty streets of Haworth or setting off across the unspoilt moors in search of what inspired the iconic sisters, Charlotte, Emily and Ann to pen their timeless classics.

Visits to the Brontë Parsonage and the Worth Valley Steam Railway are both worthy of a visit whilst spectacular walks and wonderful scenery all around are yours to explore.

THE LOCAL AREA

Higher scholes Cottage is set in spectacular countryside just over a mile from the historic and attractive village of Haworth, West Yorkshire. The area is often called Brontë Country because of its association with the Brontë authors – Emily Brontë, Charlotte Brontë and Anne Brontë.  A short stroll from the property will lead you to Main Street, with its cobbles, alleyways and abundance of traditional pubs, restaurants and cafés.

The Brontë Parsonage Museum, home to the largest and most important Brontë collections in the world, is just a short walk from the property and Brontë Waterfalls/Top Withins, reputedly the inspiration for Wuthering Heights, a 10-minute drive.

Haworth hosts themed weekends throughout the year, including the hugely popular 1940’s weekend, 1960’s weekend, Steampunk weekend, Scroggling the Holly, Nativity and the Torchlight Procession.
