Excellent cafe, garden centre, farm shop and ample grounds including a walled garden (fig, pear and apple trees laden with fruit in late summer). Sweeping lawns with majestic oaks - perfect for picnics.

Great for an amble along established paths and off the beaten track. You could take a picnic for a sunny day and head out across the boating lake.
A good opportunity to tie this in with a visit to the recently refurbished ‘Halifax Piece Hall’ - a magnificent building housing two floors of unique retail outlets.

This is a firm favourite. Hearty breakfasts served from 9.30 am and lunch from 12.00 to 2.30. We love ambling along the canal towards Marsden and then heading back for a breakfast of coffee and croissants, a bacon butty if we're famished or a slice of vegetarian frittata for a light brunch.

We have been going to ‘The Three Acres’ for special family gatherings for many years. Definitely worth considering for something special. It’s a little more pricey than your run-of-the-mill restaurant, but worth it. It has a ‘luxury traditional country inn’ feel with a warm ambience and delicious food.

Fabulous fish dishes on both occasions that I’ve visited. Country modern vibe - intimate low lighting rather than diner glare. Five minute walk along the Woodhead Road from Holmfirth, but still within striking distance of the central bars and cafes.

The food is delicious. We ordered a shared sea platter as a starter and a range of main courses, including the veggie option. The meal got a thumbs up from everyone.
