Beautiful character cottage with original features including Yorkshire Stone flagged floor, feature fireplace, original beams, and exposed stonework. Five-minute walk to the village’s independent shops, pubs, restaurants, and cafes on Haworth's historic cobbled main street in the heart of Brontë Country.
Mulberry Cottage has had a varied past dating back to 1850. It started life as a millworker’s cottage. It was extended and converted into a shop, operating as an off licence and a sweet shop in years gone by. During the 21st century it was converted back to the cottage it is now.
The cottage is a short walk to the rugged ‘Wuthering Heights’ moors, which inspired the English literary Brontë sisters, with commanding views from Top Withens. The famous Keighley and Worth Valley Railway is around the corner, an authentic steam railway featured in the film The Railway Children. There's so much to see and do in Yorkshire, you'll be kept busy no matter how long your visit! Mulberry Cottage makes a great base for exploring this lovely part of Yorkshire and beyond.
