Kirk Lea Guest House

Does what it says on the tin, cheap and local to Huddersfield town centre, nice and clean and the staff are friendly and courteous. Stayed a while ago when there was a food festival in Huddersfield, had a good time and would definitely stay there again.

A good sized room with a big TV, comfortable bed and en-suite toilet and shower. My room was at the front of the property, and it's quite a busy road outside. It didn't bother me, but a light sleeper may be disturbed by traffic. The breakfast was delicious.

I stayed here for four nights in order to spend some time in Calderdale. The accommodation was very good and suited me, as a mature single traveler, perfectly. The host, Pearl, was friendly and welcoming. The room , a single, was small but clean and tidy and the bed was comfortable. I had exclusive use of a large bathroom over the corridor. The shower was excellent. Breakfast was served at a civilised time (between 7.30 and 8.30) and needed to be ordered the previous day. It was a good breakfast which set me up for the days of walking, travelling on public transport etc. Good value for money in a town that appears to struggle for Bed and Breakfast accomodation away from the usual chains. It is easily accessible for the splendid town of Halifax, with a regular bus service running to and from Huddersfield. It is opposite the Royal Calderdale Hospital so there vcan be ambulance sirens and the windows need to be closed at night. I was there when the temperature was in the upper 20's and had to keep it open. I had a very positive experience, saw three football matches and a Rugby League game thanks to the decent Northern Rail services that trundle about and had some superb beer in The Three Pigeons, which is a 20 minute walk away. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kirk Lea to travellers who, like me, have no issue with being out all day
