Be sure to visit the iconic Holme Valley, where you can admire panoramic views of the rolling hills and rugged moorlands that inspired generations of artists and poets.



For those seeking cultural enrichment, Holmfirth offers a wealth of attractions and activities to suit every taste. Immerse yourself in the village's artistic heritage at the Holmfirth Artweek, an annual festival showcasing the works of local artists across various mediums.

Getting Around:

Holmfirth no longer has a railway station so it's best to go to Huddersfield by train and then onto Holmfirth by bus. There is a railway station on the rural 'Penistone Line' in the village of Brockholes about 2–3 miles from Holmfirth.



There are regular bus routes to the surrounding villages, towns and cities.



Taxis are also available upon request.
