A Christmas Cottage Made for Cosy Winter Breaks

Christmas is one of the most magical times to visit the Holme Valley. Picture crisp winter mornings, festive village lights, cosy country pubs and stunning countryside walks right from your doorstep.

After a day exploring the area, return to the warmth of Chimney Cottage, put your feet up, relax with a hot chocolate or glass of mulled wine, and enjoy quality time with family, friends and your dog.

Bring Your Dog Along for the Festivities

At Chimney Cottage, we know that dogs are part of the family. That’s why we’re delighted to welcome well-behaved dogs during the Christmas season.

The Holme Valley is a fantastic destination for dog owners, with miles of scenic footpaths, reservoirs, rolling countryside and moorland walks to discover. From gentle village strolls to more adventurous hikes, you’ll find plenty of opportunities to blow away the cobwebs after Christmas dinner.

Many local pubs and cafés are also dog friendly, making it easy to enjoy days out without leaving your furry friend behind.
