Christmas at Holdsworth House
Christmas at Holdsworth House Halifax
Since 1633, guests have gathered beside the fire or around the table at Christmas. For four hundred years, our halls have hosted celebration feasts, and this year is no different.
Book your ChristmasA family hotel
Still in the family
Spend Christmas at our peaceful Jacobean manor where the fires are lit, the kitchen is busy and a place at the table is set for you.
Holdsworth House dates from 1633 and, over the centuries, only a handful of families have called it home. Today the manor is Grade II* listed, has 32 individually designed bedrooms, and remains in the hands of the third-generation Pearson family, who have devoted their lives to it since 1962. This Christmas, we'd love to share it with you.
