Annette
Lovely place would definitely stay there again
Jonathan
Lovely house, perfect for family get together. Near Holmfirth centre and close to attractions. Had everything we needed. Loved the hot tub after a long busy day at Cannon Hall farm. Had a great meal in Old Bridge Inn to celebrate our daughters 40th. The only downside was that all the outside bins were already full so had to leave our rubbish just at the side of the bins.
We have just had a weekend at The Porthole, please thank the owners, we have had a lovely time and they have a wonderful house, 10 of my family stayed this was for my grandchildrens birthdays one was 21 and one was 18, it has been a very memorable weekend, the house is in a perfect location to explore Holmfirth and we would definitely stay again. Thank you

We loved staying at the Porthole! The property was lovely and clean, the beds and bedrooms are very comfortable, we all slept perfectly, and the welcome package was a nice addition! The garden is great, its very large, clean, and has a large hot tub too. It is in a great location in a very nice village with plenty cafes, shops, a Lidl, coop, etc. Thank you & we would definitely return!
