We are the Manson Family - 2 adults and 2 children - 1 girl aged 9 & 1 boy aged 6.

Our home is a 100 year old terraced house on three floors, with high ceilings, fireplaces and is full of other period features.

On the ground floor is the lounge, dining room and kitchen with dishwasher, washing machine, electric oven, gas hob, fridge and freezer.

On the first floor is a spacious double bedroom, study/spare room (with sofa bed) and bathroom with shower over the bath.

On the second floor are 2 bedrooms. One has a single bed and decorated in pink. The other bedroom has a cabin bed and spare single bed and is decorated in blue. This room has a lovely view over the Wharfe Valley.

At the back there is a garden consisting of a smallish lawn, border plants and apple trees. We have a patio table and 4 chairs and a barbeque. The neighbours are all friendly and have children.

While you are staying at our home you can have the use of our 2 adult bikes and 2 children's bikes (if we don't take them with us and they are the right size!).

Our village of Menston has friendly local shops and pubs close by and we are off the main road. The railway station to Leeds and Bradford (both a 20 minute journey) is a two minute walk away and bus services are varied and frequent with stops also two minutes away.

Menston is a West Yorkshire village situated between the bustling city of Leeds to the south and the beautiful spa town of Harrogate to the north. We are right on the edge of where busy Leeds finishes and countryside begins. You don't have to travel too far to take in all the delights of surrounding Yorkshire. These include the Yorkshire Dales and historic city of York which is only 30 miles away. There is plenty of scope for walking, with Ilkley Moor (baht'at!) virtually on our doorstep - you don't have to get in the car to reach it. If visiting museums, art galleries and theatres are on your holiday list, then Bradford, Leeds and also the Hockney Gallery at the world heritage village of Saltaire are only a short train ride away. Also, not far away is the town of Haworth - made famous by the Brontė sisters.

From Menston, in one holiday you can take in the delights of the city and also the beautiful Yorkshire countryside, all within easy reach.
