"Spen House looked lovely on the website, but nothing can prepare you for how wonderful the house is. Additionally the House is in such a stunning location, it makes for a very magical holiday. There were 8 of us who stayed and whilst the house was very spacious, it also felt warm and welcoming. The area is also very special, and ideal for walks with lovely villages and pubs within easy walking distance."

"I cannot rate this accommodation highly enough.We stayed for a long weekend with our extended family, including young children and one small pet. and found everything was well catered for, from kitchen equipment, cot beds etc . Every room is tastefully decorated to a VERY high standard - and every one of our guests was delighted with their rooms. It is perfectly situated for day trips to various places etc, plus we went on many walks in the countryside. A lot of thought and care has gone into providing excellent accommodation, that has high standards across the board. We are planning on returning in the future."

"We spent our family Christmas at Spen House, and we could not have been happier with our choice. The attention to detail was second to none. The house had been decorated for us including a Christmas tree. The bedrooms were large, bright and comfortable. The bathrooms were modern and more than enough baths/showers/ toilets to accommodate a big family over the festive period! In short it had everything we needed, and it became an in joke that the minute someone said 'oh we should have brought xxxx' we would open a drawer and find one. A lovely holiday."
