The Jacobean manor house hotel in Halifax
A Grade II* house on the edge of Halifax, run by the same family since 1962.
Holdsworth House is set in three acres, with walled formal gardens and rustic paddocks. The hotel has thirty-two bedrooms and suites, an award-winning restaurant serving seasonal menus, and our famous traditional afternoon tea. The Farmhouse Treatment Rooms offer a new and very private wellness experience. We are proud to have twice been voted the best wedding hotel in Yorkshire, and we never hold more than one wedding a day.
