Menston is a popular village community and occupies a very pleasant setting on the edge of Wharfedale which affords ready access to West Yorkshire business districts and lovely open countryside. The village retains a good provision of everyday amenities including local shops, primary school, a choice of pubs and a number of sports clubs. For the traveller there is the 'Metro' railway station from where frequent services are available throughout the day into the local cities of Leeds and Bradford and into Ilkley too. The local towns of Otley and Ilkley both offer their own style of shopping environments along with cultural and social amenities.
If entering Menston from the traffic lights by the JCT garage, proceed towards the village centre passing the park on the right hand side. Continue through the village towards its fringe where Bay Tree Cottage will be found on the left hand side on exiting the village identified by a Dacre Son & Hartley For Sale board.
The property enjoys a pleasant village fringe setting close to open countryside yet accessible to excellent local amenities including shops, post office, doctors surgery, public houses and a variety of sporting and recreational facilities. There is the local railway station nearby with links to Leeds, Bradford and Ilkley. The nearby towns of Guiseley, Otley and Ilkley provide a more extensive range of shops being within a short drive. There are excellent schools nearby and there is the International Leeds/Bradford Airport at nearby Yeadon.
