                          Our Story:  

                                                                                         How Plover Cottage Started                                                                                                                                                                                                                        It all began from a simple idea. A place where guests could feel at home while staying away from home.

                                                                                        Growing Plover Cottage over the years                                                                                                                                                                                              We have welcomed guests from all over the UK and beyond, including people visiting family, working locally,                                                                                                                                                            attending events and discovering the beautiful surrounding of Yorkshire.

                                                                                        Four in a Bed                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      It was about much more than being on television. It was an opportunity to showcase what Plover Cottage is all about.                                                                 The comfortable accommodation, a warm welcome and the personal service we believe makes a stay special.

                                                                                       Today, 10 years on                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            We make Plover Cottage your home with our personal touch. We have built the business around hospitality, listening to our guests and continually improving the experience we provide.

Really enjoyed the property, great base for my stay to visit family and the surrounding areas.

It’s a great location visiting the Huddersfield area and beyond. The facilities at the property allow you to be completely self-sufficient and the property is equipped with everything you need and to a very high standard. I can only recommend the property as it meets all your needs and is such a lovely space to be in. The host is available to you to help in any way. I was fortunate to meet Cleide (host) and she was welcoming and helpful and so friendly. I had a lovely stay and will be booking again for sure.

We stayed in the Golden Plover apartment for 2 weeks and it was amazing. Everything we needed was available to us, it was super clean and comfortable. Cleide was super responsive if we had questions, a fantastic and friendly host. The location was spot on lots of lovely bars, restaurants and coffee shops. We will definitely be back to stay again. Thank you so much Cleide.

Cleide was an extremely helpful host letting us check in at 1 so we could drop our luggage off so we could make it to the wedding without bags in tow…

She also got intouch the day before with instructions which was great!

Room was lovely and well equipped with a shop the end of the road! And super comfy beds! If we ever need to stay in Lindley again we will be sure to get in touch ! Thank you for a lovely stay
