Guests say
Church View in Keighley is a well-received apartment with guests praising its comfort, cleanliness, and prime location. Many appreciate the thoughtful touches, such as welcome hampers, and find the property to be a cosy base for exploring the Yorkshire Dales. While some mention minor maintenance issues and occasional noise, the overall sentiment is highly positive, with several guests being repeat visitors.
The majority of guests have highlighted the apartment's cleanliness, describing it as 'spotless' and 'well cared for'. There was a single mention of an unclean oven, but this appears to be an isolated incident.
The location is frequently praised for being central and convenient, ideal for exploring Haworth and nearby attractions. Some guests noted noise from the local pub and church bells, but these comments were few and did not detract significantly from the overall positive feedback on location.
Comfort is consistently commended, with guests finding the apartment warm, welcoming, and akin to a home away from home. The bed receives special mention for its size and comfort. A few guests noted noise from upstairs occupants, but this did not seem to be a widespread concern.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with the apartment described as well-equipped and thoughtfully designed. However, there are comments about minor maintenance issues such as a broken freezer compartment and a slippery entrance when wet. These are offset by the many positive remarks about the overall facilities.
While many guests mention and appreciate the welcome hampers, including wine and chocolates, as a thoughtful gesture, it is important to note that such gifts are subject to availability and are not guaranteed for every stay.

Haworth is a village that time almost forgot, with its myriad of curiosity and antique shops, alleyways and cobbled streets creating a wonderful period atmosphere, all set against a framing backdrop of countryside famously described in the novel Wuthering Heights as wild, rugged and barren. Nearby, the famous Worth Valley Railway. Visit Bronte Parsonage Museum, East Riddlesden Hall, and the National Railway Museum in York. The market town of Skipton, often fondly regarded as the Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, is just a short drive away, and also within reach are elegant Harrogate and vibrant Leeds and Manchester.

The flat was well equipped and cozy. There was some noise from a neighbouring pub at the weekend but you can't blame people for enjoying themselves. Parking in Haworth is a problem. We got over this by 'doing a deal' with a local pub and used their car park for the week.

Brilliant communication from the owner, and all in all a relaxing experience. We particularly loved Haworth Steam Brewery and Fleece Inn for food and drinks, and Changegate Fisheries for a great chippy tea!
