About Tyas Cottage
Tyas Cottage, a combined cottage and barn, is located within a small hamlet near Slaithwaite and Marsden on the site of the first water powered mill in the Colne Valley (C17th). It is 7 miles from Huddersfield & 11 from Halifax, West Yorkshire. Titanic Spa, with its superb range of facilities, is only two and a half miles away
South facing within the sheltered, wooded valley, Merrydale, this ancient, cobbled pack horse road echoes to the sound of falling water. This secluded property is within Merrydale, an area designated as a 'Site of Scientific Interest'. The abundant birdlife of this local beauty spot includes kingfishers, herons and sparrow hawks.
In addition to the private patio there is a large shared garden that includes a mill pond and stream. There are 11 golf courses within 5 miles.
The quality of the furnishings, mainly antiques, can be appreciated from the photos, but special mention must be made of the Georgian mahogany 4 poster bed with its carved ceiling.
Solar power - thanks to a post Christmas gap in bookings, we have completed the plumbing and the solar panel is now operational!
