The Stables Reviews

Our second time at the stables Honley and we love it The owners are so lovely and cant do enough for you

Kyesha

Amazing stay and It was so relaxing. We enjoyed every part of it, the nice long walks and the little villages. The bath was definitely the best part! Thank you so much. We would definitely be back again.

This was ideal accommodation for a couple. The welcome was fantastic, the walk through very professional then we were left in peace and privacy to enjoy the facilities and the surroundings. And what a beautiful location it is. Shame it was the middle of summer in a way we would have loved to have fired up that wood burner!!!

Lovely place, wish we could have stayed longer

The farm setting atmosphere and surroundings of The Stables was so calm but it was the intentional welcoming presence and home feel from Katy and her partner that contributed to this the most. Their thoughtful touches in the cottage of homemade shortbread and other goodies was greatly appreciated. And then the luxurious feel inside a modest yet beautiful cottage on the outside turned into us appreciating amazing sleep in the massive comfortable bed and many a soak in the hot tub and slipper bath.

Tracey

Perfect, what a little gem of a place. Spotlessly clean and cosy, owners live on site and were there for help but not at all intrusive. Loved seeing the horses being so well cared for. The owners allowed us to use one of the fields at the top that was fenced in to let our dog off lead which was lovely. There are plenty of places to eat locally, would recommend Jacobs Well for a good home cooked meal. The local takeaway Honley Spice was amazing value for money and the best dansak Ive had in years! Local Budgens in Honley has a sandwich counter that was out of this world! The walks by the stream at the bottom were great. All in all a great base if you are keen walkerscyclists or just want a place to chill and switch off from the world for a week. Hot tub was wonderful and private and great for those aching muscles. If you want somewhere relaxing that feels like you are in the middle of nowhere but still have the convenience of Uber eats this is for you! Thank you for an amazing relaxing week. Tracey and Andy

What a great place. We loved staying here. The rural location was just what we wanted, although only a few minutes walk from the village which had lots to offer. Katy & family was a perfect host, on hand for questions and advice but in no way interfering. Go on, book it you won't be sorry!

Thank you Katy and Stuart for a most enjoyable week at your lovely holiday cottage. The owners' care and commitment to the guests' experience is outstanding. The cottage is warm and cosy with an amazingly spacious bedroom. The huge bed was so, so comfortable. We slept soundly as it was so perfectly quiet. The Stables is situated in gorgeous countryside with fantastic walks on the doorstep. The magical Marsden Moors and Holme Valley are nearby. Within about one hours drive the fascinating Salts Mill in Saltaire, National Trusts' Nostell Priory and East Riddlesdon Hall can be visited. A visit to Hawarth, the Bronte Parsonage and the iconic walk to Top Withins is a midweek must! Thank you again. Kevin and Karen June 2026

Lovely cottage and lively area. Katy Stewart & Ben couldn't do enough for you

Lovely quiet cottage to chill. Everything you need in walking distance plus lovely countryside around. Owners cant do enough for you. Will return for definite.

Lindsey

Absolutely stunning place, so clean and well equipped. Hosts were welcoming and helpful. Will definitely be staying again!

Andrew

Lovely accommodation, perfect for a couple & a dog! . Very clean and well appointed, especially the wet room shower. Pleasant stroll into Honley itself where there were several places to eat and drink if you don't fancy cooking. The owners, who live on site were very nice and helpful with directions and suggestions not to mention the home baked shortbread as a lovely welcome gift.

Alistair

Perfect week spent at the Stables, was great seeing the horses right on your doorstep. The owners greeted us on our arrival with the keys and a quick guided tour with a couple of welcome treats. The property is laid out perfectly and cosy, with the private hottub and wood burner to come back too after a day out we couldnt have asked for any more,

Deborah

Great hosts Beautiful cottage. Highly recommend

We have stayed at The Stables a few times previously and it never disappoints. Everything is just perfect. The bed is so comfy and the cottage is equipped with everything you need. The hosts are always on hand for anything you need and its so peaceful and relaxing. Cant wait to go back X

This bolt hole is amazing! We felt like we had died and gone to heaven. There was absolutely nothing we felt could have improved our stay, from the friendly welcome, to waking up to the gentle wynnying of the horses accompanied by the birdsong, to relaxing in the hot tub. This really was our idea of paradise. Thank you so much to Katy and her wonderful family. We look forward to seeing you again

Perfect Christmas brake. Absolutely beautiful property Stuart & Katy are perfect hosts helpful and friendly go above and beyond to make your stay special. The area is outstanding for walks and lovely food great pubs and very friendly people we have booked for May we enjoyed it kslo much thank you and see you again in May

Super little cottage in every manner. Easy parking. Warm and cosy. Huge bed and the best sleep ever!! Very comfortable and greet walks nearby for dogs. Adored watching the horses and stables life. Our hosts were so helpful friendly and considerate. Fabulous spot for day trips and we loved the Yorkshire Sculpture Park. Thanks again

This is a fabulous place to stay. We had our first holiday with our dog and it was perfect. Fantastic walks, beautiful dog friendly pubs and restaurants very close by. The hosts were incredibly helpful and friendly. The cottage itself is lovely and the extra special touches set it apart hot tub, under floor heating, extremely comfortable bed, gorgeous bath...

Lovely cottage for two everything you need for a week away the hot tub was an ... Lovely cottage for two everything you need for a week away the hot tub was an extra bonus the owner Katy and Stuart was very welcoming and the fact the horses was just outside the cottage in their stables was bliss

Melanie

Gorgeous little cottage in a gorgeous setting. Beautiful and tasteful features throughout and Katy was an amazing host. Really welcoming, friendly and helpful and it was lovely to arrive to bubbles, crisps and delicious homemade shortbread and then leave with raspberries and rhubarb from the garden. Honley is a great location and the cottage is perfect for two with everything you could need. Loved having the horses so nearby as well. We hope to return.

We had a wonderful stay here a perfect middle point for myself and my mum to get together and celebrate our birthdays! What better way to celebrate than relaxing in the hot tub, and not having to worry about anything because it was all here for us including delicious homemade shortbread on arrival!! The cottage was super clean and cosy, and Katy was very friendly and helpful. It's also in a great location far away enough from town to be peaceful, but not so far that you can't just nip out for dinner

Melanie

We had a lovely week staying at this property. The owners were very welcoming and knowledgeable about the local area, full of recommendations on walks and places to eat. The cottage was very comfortable, the hot tub a delight after a long walk. We would love to stay again in the future.

Tamira

We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday here and really appreciated being shown where things were, how things worked and the home made shortbread. Initially we were worried about our dogs barking at the horses but the owners reassured us that they wouldn't frighten them and, after a short while the dogs realised it was nothing to bark at and one of the dogs even enjoyed sitting out in the evenings to just watch the horses. It was the perfect place to relax in the peace and quiet and to be able to explore the Peak District.

Deborah

We stayed in April for my partner's birthday. We really loved the cottage, which was well equipped and very clean, we liked having the underfloor heating too. Great surrounding area and woodland for walking our dog. We had a really peaceful stay and enjoyed seeing the horses and life at a working stables. The short bread best we've ever had wine and milk was a nice gesture and much appreciated. Owners nice, friendly and helpful. Loved the jacuzzi. We would recommend.

Lovely little cottage in a peaceful location. Cottage was really clean and had all the amenities we needed, private gated hot tub. Under floor heating was so nice underfoot although we had to turn ours off as the dog likes a cold floor to lay on. Lovely big super king size bed and comfy bedding! On arrival Katy had left us, homemade shortbread, crisps, milk and a bottle of fizz, lovely little touch! Just a short walk away into the little town of Honley with shops, pubs and little restaurants. Or 10 minute drive into Holmfirth. Would definitely recommend for a relaxing break away!

A perfect place to stay. Nice and clean throughout, fresh and modern with bags full of character. Very welcoming hosts. Would definitely recommend.

Carole

Great relaxing week away, the cottage was amazing, hot tub and slipper bath a real bonus, the owners could not have been nicer and so accommodating, great walks it was just beautiful.

Alyson

Beautiful cottage in a lovely peaceful setting with lovely hospitable hosts We would definitely recommend and we will. Be back

Joanne

Lovely cottage great stay the hot tub is great after a long walk everything you could wish for

Lovely cottage, exactly as advertised and immaculately clean. Everything we needed was provided as well as treats which are very much appreciated. The owners live on site, we didn't have any issues when we were there but if we had I feel confident they would have sorted them. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will most likely return

Geoffrey

Small but perfectly formed. An ideal retreat for a couple looking for peace and quiet. The cottage has everyrhing to make a stay complete, and although it's in an isolated location, it's only a 5 minute drive from all essential amenities. The owners go above and beyond to provide a quality experience. Highly recommend.

Victoria

Katy and her hubby were lovely, really welcoming and friendly. The hot tub was warm and very, very clean. The hob wouldnt work despite us having clean, dry hands. A couple more mugs for tea addicts would be much appreciated. The cottage was very smart and lovely. The walk from the cottage through the woods was perfect.

Absolutely bliss, tranquility and relaxation. Beautiful surroundings and walks a plenty. Lovely clean cottage and brilliant welcoming hosts. Would highly recommend.
