Salter Rake Gate Cottage, Middle Bottomley, Bottomley Road, Todmorden, West Yorkshire, OL14 6QZ

This is the second time we have stayed. Penny, the owner is amazing and so very helpful. The property is clean and has so much character. Honestly, if you book you will not be disappointed.

We stayed at this lovely cottage last weekend. The pictures on the web do not do it justice it really is amazing.

Seven of us stayed and a lot more with guests coming and going over the weekend. There was plenty of room for everyone.

The wood burner helped make it a magical stay for all of us.

The bedrooms were an excellent size and has three separate toilets including two large bathrooms.

We would have happily given five stars if it wasn?t for a couple of points:

The main shower was rubbish with no pressure, although the shower over the bath was good.

The cottage was clean but it desperately needs a deep clean with the floors very dirty and the mop head should be binned.

It is so close to being perfect and even though not a five star rating very reasonably priced and worth every penny.

Stayed here as a family group for a long weekend . This cottage has been restored to a high standard and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It has all the mod cons and is well equipped with everything that you may need. We didn?t have long enough here so we are hoping to return and further explore the area

We booked for Christmas 2018, and the cottage is comfortable and well stocked. The kitchen is good with most of the equipment you are likely to need - although you might need some extra pans if you are doing a big meal. Beds are comfortable. Main room is nice and warm once the fire gets going. The owners are friendly, and their dog is lovely. There is lots of good walking nearby.

It is up a steep access road, so if any of your party have limited mobility, be aware they might not be able to get about without a vehicle.

Overall, an excellent break in a lovely cottage.

We feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful cottage to stay in. Having spent a couple of years living in Todmorden a while back, I wanted to show the sights to my husband, 3 year old and in-laws. Finding a place to sleep 7 in the Hebden Bridge was surprisingly hard, but then we found Salter Rake Gate cottage and weren't disappointed.

Up a rather steep hill we found a beautifully refurbished house equipped with everything we could possibly need. The location was great too, beautiful rural views from every window yet easy to reach local amenities in Todmorden and Littleborough.

Our son adores trains so we took advantage of the railway to take trips to Halifax and Bradford as well as a ride on the Worth Valley Railway. We would highly recommend Eureka and the Bradford media museum for kids on a rainy day. The in laws enjoyed walks along the many footpaths accessible from the house, and the hubby even managed a bit of mountain biking at Lee Valley Quarry.

Also recommended is a visit to Grandma Pollards chippy opposite Walsden station. Fantastic fish a day chips in a real traditional restaurant with a bus to eat your chips on if you can find space! They also do enormous and delicious fruit pies and vanilla slices if your stomach can take it.

We would happily stay in this beautiful cottage again and would love to take advantage of the great location for walks along the Pennine Way and beyond in the future.

Beautiful house with lovely views and thoughtfully equipped. Stayed for a few days to celebrate our wedding anniversary ...wonderful spot and we enjoyed some great walking from the cottage. Not really any need to get the car out as there are some lovely walks from the house and the railway at Walsden is a 20 minute walk along the canal ...from there regular trains to Todmorden, Hebden bridge ...and further. The house is very comfortable and the wood burner make it cosy in the evenings ...the owners have provided some really detailed information both about us

We stayed here over the new year period with friends and what a wonderful place it was.. It came with everything you could wish for and being up the hills get some spectacular views..has all mod cons three great bedrooms and two spacious bathrooms..the owners couldn't do enough for you if you needed anything..the walks are amazing and if you get chance go to the Shepards Rest for something to eat..

This has to be one of the nicest cottages we have stayed in, extremely well furnished, very comfortable and well equipped and also spacious for a cottage. The location and surrounding countryside is stunning. It is the perfect place to stay to explore Pennines, West Yorks.
