The Upper Holme Valley is a paradise for walkers and cyclists. With the Pennine Way running through the moorland and iconic climbs such as Holme Moss (famously featured in the 2014 Tour de France), the area offers some of the finest walking and cycling country imaginable. The cottages are also just three miles from Holmfirth, a delightful town known for its role as the filming location of the beloved BBC series Last of the Summer Wine. The area boasts plenty of attractions, including the Holmfirth Vineyard and Holmfirth Picturedrome, as well as annual events like the Music Festival, Food and Drink Festival, and Tractor Rally. The surrounding area has also featured in several popular TV shows, including Where the Heart Is (filmed five miles away in the Colne Valley), as well as Gentleman Jack, Happy Valley, and Last Tango in Halifax in nearby Halifax.
For an added touch of elegance, Huddersfield, just 10 miles away, is home to the renowned Titanic Eco Spa.
