Haworth Guide

Haworth's cottages with hot tubs offer the perfect base to explore Brontë Country. This West Yorkshire village, famous as the home of the Brontë sisters, combines literary heritage with stunning moorland landscapes that inspired Wuthering Heights.

The most popular attractions include the Brontë Parsonage Museum (4.5/5 on TripAdvisor), the cobbled Main Street (4.5/5) and the nearby Keighley & Worth Valley Railway (4.5/5). The surrounding moorland provides excellent walking opportunities with routes for all abilities.

Sylvia Plath is buried in the nearby Heptonstall churchyard, having chosen the location due to her deep connection to Ted Hughes and her admiration for the Brontës. The village has also featured in numerous TV productions including The Railway Children.

Cottages range from cosy one-bedroom retreats perfect for couples to larger properties accommodating groups of 8+. Many feature wood-burning stoves alongside hot tubs, with some offering dog-friendly options and others providing luxury touches like four-poster beds.

Sightseeing

Haworth sits in the heart of Brontë Country, making it perfect for literary fans and outdoor enthusiasts alike. The Brontë Parsonage Museum (BD22 8DR, open 10am-5pm Apr-Oct, 10am-4pm Nov-Mar, closed Mondays in winter) gives you a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the famous sisters with a 4.5/5 TripAdvisor rating.

Main Street in Haworth is packed with independent shops, tearooms and pubs. The cobbled street climbs steeply up from the bottom of the village and I'd recommend comfortable shoes! The street scores 4.5/5 on TripAdvisor with visitors praising its authentic Yorkshire character.

For railway enthusiasts, the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway (BD22 8NJ) runs steam trains through the valley. It featured in The Railway Children film and gets a solid 4.5/5 on TripAdvisor. A day rover ticket lets you hop on and off at different stations.

The wild moorland that inspired Wuthering Heights is just a short walk from the village. Top Withens, the ruined farmhouse thought to be Emily Brontë's inspiration, makes for a challenging but rewarding 8-mile round trip from your cottage.

Pet Friendly

Dogs will love the miles of moorland walks directly from your Haworth hot tub cottage. The Brontë Way is particularly good, offering well-marked paths across varied terrain. We recommend downloading the route before setting off as mobile signal can be patchy.

Many Haworth pubs welcome dogs, including The Black Bull (BD22 8DR) which was Branwell Brontë's regular. They provide water bowls and treats at the bar. The Old White Lion (BD22 8DU) has a dog-friendly section in their restaurant area too.

For supplies, Paws & Claws pet shop on Main Street stocks emergency essentials. The local vet practice, Aireworth Vets (BD21 5LE), is just 10 minutes' drive away in Keighley should you need them.

When visiting the Brontë Parsonage Museum, dogs aren't allowed inside but there's a shaded area in the garden where one person can wait with your pet while others tour the house.

Top 3 attractions you have to see in Haworth

The Brontë Parsonage Museum (BD22 8DR) is unmissable. This perfectly preserved home where Charlotte, Emily and Anne wrote their famous novels contains original manuscripts, clothes and personal items. The guided tours are excellent, with knowledgeable staff bringing the family's story to life. One recent visitor wrote: "Standing in the room where Jane Eyre was written gave me goosebumps. Worth every penny of the entrance fee."

Haworth Parish Church (BD22 8DR) sits next to the parsonage where the Brontës' father was curate for over 40 years. The current building dates from 1879 but contains memorials to the family. The graveyard is atmospheric and sobering - during the Brontës' time, the average life expectancy in Haworth was just 25 years due to poor sanitation. The church scores 4/5 on TripAdvisor.

The Keighley & Worth Valley Railway (BD22 8NJ) offers a 5-mile journey through stunning countryside on vintage steam trains. The line has six stations, with Haworth's beautifully restored Victorian station being a highlight. Special events run throughout the year, including dining experiences and themed journeys. A visitor last month noted: "Sitting in a 1950s carriage with the windows down, steam drifting past as we chugged through the valley - then back to our cottage for a dip in the hot tub. Perfect day!"

Is Haworth suitable for a romantic weekend?

Absolutely! The combination of literary connections, beautiful scenery and cosy pubs makes Haworth perfect for couples. Many cottages offer romantic features like wood burners alongside hot tubs. Book a table at Haworth Old Hall for dinner and take a sunset walk on the moors.

When is the best time to visit Haworth?

Spring and autumn offer the best balance of decent weather and fewer crowds. The heather on the moors turns purple in late August/early September, creating stunning landscapes. December is magical with the village's Victorian Christmas events, though accommodation with hot tubs books up quickly.

Can you recommend any good walks from Haworth?

The walk to Top Withens (supposed inspiration for Wuthering Heights) is the classic route. For something less challenging, try the Railway Children Walk which follows the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway line through beautiful countryside. The Brontë Waterfall walk offers great views and is about 3 miles round trip.

Where can I park in Haworth?

The main car park is at the bottom of Main Street (BD22 8DU, £5 all day). If your cottage doesn't have dedicated parking, this is your best option. Avoid trying to park on Main Street itself as it's very narrow and usually full.

Are there good places to eat in Haworth?

Yes! Haworth Old Hall serves excellent Yorkshire fare in a 16th-century building. For lighter meals, Cobbles & Clay on Main Street offers great lunches and homemade cakes. The Hawthorn on Main Street serves gastropub food with local ingredients. Most places get busy at weekends so book ahead.

What's the nearest train station to Haworth?

Keighley is the nearest mainline station, about 3 miles away. From there, you can either take a bus (the 760/762 runs regularly) or, in summer, the steam train on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway. If driving from Keighley, follow signs for the B6142.
