HAWORTH


VISIT AND FALL IN LOVE WITH THE VILLAGE OF HAWORTH

ESCAPE TO THE MOOR - HAWORTH GUIDED WALK


BRONTE ADVENTURES

Bronte Adventures provides visitor information for Haworth in Yorkshire and is
also the local guide for Haworth walks.

Haworth is a quaint, little village, clinging to the edge of the Yorkshire
moors.
It has picturesque cobbled streets with shops, pubs and cafes where friends
visit to unwind over coffee or rest after taking to the hills for a rugged
moorland adventure.

Haworth is best known for being the literary home of the Bronte sisters and the
majestic steam trains of the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway. It’s where Cathy
and Heathcliffe embraced and where local folklore says passing through ‘The
Fairy Cave‘ will bring marriage within a year – dare you!

We’re also here to showcase things to do, what events are coming up and where to
find your perfect accommodation.

TOURIST INFORMATION


HAWORTH WEATHER

Check today's weather in Haworth to help you prepare for your trip, or see the
forecast for the next 7 days. Whatever the weather, there's always a warm
welcome.


PARKING

We suggest using the council-run Pay and display car park by the Bronte
Parsonage Museum, rather than the nearby private car park. See FAQs below.


TOILETS

The public toilets in the park at the bottom of Main Street are open Thurs to
Sun, from 11am and 3.30pm. The toilets by the Bronte Parsonage Museum are
currently closed.


1ST AID

We suggest visiting the pharmacy (closed on Sundays) near the train station or
ask a local business for assistance. Haworth also has a surgery if required.


BABY-CHANGING

Baby changing facilities are in the park toilet block at the bottom of Main
Street or you can ask at your chosen cafe or pub.


ATMS FOR CASH

A free ATM is outside of the Spa shop near the train station and another is in
the Kings Arms pub at the top of Main Street which has a fee for transactions.


7 TOP TIPS WHEN VISITING THE VILLAGE OF HAWORTH

Book your accommodation early to avoid disappointment as the village is popular
during peak season and for major events.

If planning your stay during the winter and want to visit The Bronte Parsonage
Museum, please check their opening dates as they usually close two or three
weeks in January to refit for their exhibitions. All admissions are by
pre-booked tickets only.

Take a trip to the picturesque hamlet of Wycoller. Park at The Atom, for lovely
views of Lancashire and Pendle Hill (famous for its witches), then walk down the
hill to explore the ruins of Wycoller Hall, believed to be the inspiration for
Ferndean Manor in Jane Eyre. There’s also a nature trail, duck pond and numerous
foot bridges crossing the beck. If you’re lucky, the cafe will be open!

Visit Salts Mill at Saltaire, near Bradford. This mill and village complex is a
UNESCO World Heritage Site, built by Sir Titus Salts, a textile magnate and
philanthropist. At its height, 3000 workers produced 18 miles of worsted cloth
per day on 1200 looms. The mill also hosts artwork by the world famous, local
artist, David Hockney.

Visit Gillson’s quarry in Haworth which is still active and cutting stone blocks
and bricks. It’s fascinating to see the process of taking the raw stone from the
hillside, slicing and carving it. You’ll see the quarry location by spotting the
single wind turbine high up to the East of the village.

Walk to Hebden Bridge, approx 9 miles and if you have time, visit Gibson Mill in
the pretty woodland of Hardcastle Crags along the way. Return to Haworth by bus
which run hourly.

Visit the historic site of Bolton Abbey to explore the abbey, wooded walks,
cross the river stepping stones (watch out for the wobbly one!) and treat
yourself in the tearoom. They also host events throughout the year, mostly for
children. You pay for parking, rather than individual tickets.


HAWORTH VILLAGE: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


HOW BIG IS HAWORTH?

According to the 2011 Census, Haworth has a population of 6,379, including
out-lying settlements and farmsteads. Haworth village itself is likely to have
just over 2,000 people.

The civil parish of Haworth, Cross Roads and Stanbury is within the Bradford
Metropolitan District Council area, which itself falls within the county of West
Yorkshire.


WHERE IS HAWORTH?

The village has a South Pennine hilltop location in the Worth Valley, West
Yorkshire, England. It is 3 miles (5 km) southwest of Keighley, between
thevillages of Oakworth and Oxenhope.


HOW FAR IS HAWORTH FROM...

Haworth is just 4 miles from Keighley which has a train station connecting to
Leeds, Bradford and beyond. It’s also the start of the Keighley and Worth Valley
Railway, so it is possible to enter Haworth via steam or diesel train.

You can also catch a bus to Haworth from the Keighley Bus Station and unless you
want to visit the railway station, we suggest you get off the bus higher up the
hill at the Haworth Surgery (ask the bus driver to stop there).

Haworth is the following road miles from: Bradford – 9 miles, Colne – 11 miles,
Skipton – 13 miles, Leeds – 26 miles, Manchester – 45 miles, York – 52 miles,
London – 213 miles.


HOW DO I GET THERE?

By car: If driving, you’ll enjoy stunning moorland routes from Colne or Hebden
Bridge, and the roads from the M62 motorway, Halifax or Keighley are very
straight forward. 

By train: To get to Keighley by train, you can plan your trip and book your
tickets with Trainline. The Keighley and Worth Valley Railway runs steam and
diesel trains between Keighley railway station and Haworth railway station at
weekends, bank holidays and daily in summer (01535 647777). These are great if
you’re into vintage railways, but a bit pricey if they’re not your thing and you
just want to get there.

By bus: The Keighley bus station is a 5 minute walk from the train station and
you can catch the B3 or B2 bus to Haworth for approx £4 (adult). If you want to
go to the top of the village, near the Bronte Parsonage Museum, ask the driver
to stop at Haworth Surgery.

By taxi: An Uber taxi costs approx £8 (as of 2021).


WHERE TO PARK THE CAR?

With many streets in Haworth narrow and winding, it can seem difficult to find
somewhere to leave your car without causing an obstruction or inconvenience to
locals. Here’s a quick guide to what car parking spaces are available (all are
Pay & Display).

 * Bronte Parsonage Museum Car Park: 63 spaces – council. Our choice, at the top
   of the village and adjacent to public toilets. This is our suggested car
   park.
 * Bronte Village Car Park: 300 spaces – council. Within an ex-quarry setting
   with short paths to Main Street.
 * Haworth Railway Station Car Park: 35 spaces – railway. Lower part of the
   village.
 * Gas Street Car Park: 60 spaces – council. Lower part of the village.

Locals tip – free parking is usually available at the doctors’ surgery car park
when not in use on Saturday afternoons and Sundays. Please do not use when the
surgery is open, as local patients need it.

Central Car Park, formerly Changegate Car Park is owned and managed by the
notorious ‘Yorkshire Clamper’ (Google it). We suggest you read their reviews on
Google and TripAdvisor to make your own judgement.


IS THERE A CHILDREN'S PLAYGROUND?

Central Park is a well-kept green space with beautiful flower beds, bowling
green and children’s playground. This has swings, a climbing frame and slide,
and there’s also a band stand in the centre to shelter under in case it rains.

Located between the train station and Main Street with large grassed areas and
numerous benches, it’s ideal for picnics and to rest your legs after a busy day
wandering around. It also has public toilets there too.

David made our trip to Haworth so magical! We were a group of 6 women visiting
Haworth as part of our Bronte literature course. Visiting Haworth really helped
us understand the setting where the Bronte sisters grew up, but hiking the moors
with David gave us a first-hand view of what inspired them to write their
marvelous novels. Davids know the trails inside and out and took us to see some
of the most important landmarks that would have been around when the Bronte
sisters were alive. The moors are a stunning landscape and David takes you to
all of the best spots to take in the sights and sounds of Yorkshire. I highly
recommend hiring David to take you on a private guided walk of the area. He is a
wealth of knowledge and also, the nicest man!

My wife and I had a guided tour by David on Saturday. The booking process was
simple and straightforward. Thereafter David did his upmost to keep us informed
and to advise us how things would happen. The walk itself was superb, with David
being a knowledgeable and entertaining guide. David takes you off the beaten
track and makes sure see and experience things the guide books don't.If you wish
to see the moors and all the main Bronte sites in a morning then I could not
recommend this more!

Magical experience. Exploring the beauty of the moors, gazing on wondrous
waterfalls, walking through crags and heather. Hearing skylarks, wild grouse and
curlews. David took us off the beaten path and was sympathetic to our interests
. I highly recommend this walk.

I booked a walk to Top Withens, the site reputed to have inspired Emily Bronte’s
descriptions of the setting of Wuthering Heights, with Bronte Adventures in
Haworth. The guided walk on the moors, which took in other places known to the
Brontes, was so interesting and enjoyable. Our guide, David, was so helpful and
knowledgeable and made the walk, which had initially seemed a bit challenging,
safe and thoroughly good fun. Thank you, Bronte Adventures!

Last Saturday morning my partner and I had the pleasure of a group walk with
Bronte Adventures.Our guide, David, was waiting to welcome us at the allocated
meeting point. After a brief description of the walk and approximate finishing
time we were on our way.The first part of the walk was uphill but we were soon
rewarded with fantastic views.David was happy to go at the pace of the group
with lots of information stops and rests along the way.If you have a spare
Saturday morning in the coming weeks I would not hesitate to recommend Bronte
Adventures.
