What’s The Cottage like?

This detached 19th Century cottage is one of the village’s last remaining links to the coal mining industry. It previously served as an office for the former Cross Pit and was also a doctor’s surgery before it was converted into a three-bedroom holiday home. The cottage, which is located on the A628, is approximately 10 minutes from Barnsley.

How dog-friendly is The Cottage?

Excellent. Dog beds, blankets, treats and poo bags are provided and there’s also a crate of toys for pets to play with. Stan loved rummaging through it every day to pick out a new ball! There is plenty of outdoor space for dogs to enjoy, too. The cottage has a large enclosed patio area that wraps around the back of the house and is completely secure as long as the gate is shut. Up to three dogs can stay at a time for no additional fee. The only rule is that they stay off the beds. Read more on Ernie's Adventures...

The Cottage was beautiful & so welcoming as soon as we stepped inside. There was everything & more there that we needed. It was my dogs first ever holiday & they were so relaxed & chilled out. Garden was perfect for them too with it being so secure & lovely to sit in. The cottage is absolutely perfect & the personal touches all around made it that bit more special. Absolutely loved all the Steven Brown touches around (big fan) myself, my best friend & my dad, not forgetting the dogs all loved it & found it hard to leave- l could hibernate in that cottage for a month & would be happy. We'll done to the owner for providing this gorgeous gem.
