History

The Bronte sisters wrote their famous novels whilst living at the parsonage in the village. It is now an evocative  museum furnished as it was in their day. The Keighley and Worth Valley steam railway passes through Haworth. The iconic film The Railway Children was filmed here.

Meet the team

Our dedicated team, many of whom are local to Haworth, are on hand and happy to offer you the best advice and guidance to really appreciate this stunning location. Not only is Haworth famous for its vast and stunning landscapes which influenced the iconic Bronte Family but the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, celebrating its 50th Anniversary in 2018, which runs steam trains on a daily basis through summer and is a must for steam enthusiasts!

Managers recommendations: With excellent transport links to Leeds, Bradford and Halifax you can really get out and about exploring the local areas and the manager recommends Hebden Bridge as a quirky little town to visit, it has built a reputation for "great little shops" and has an unusually high density of independent shops for a UK town of its size with more than 20 cafes and tea rooms, and about 20 pubs, micro pubs and restaurants so you certainly wont be bored. There really is something for everyone at YHA Haworth!
