Tucked in the serene West Yorkshire countryside, just a stone’s throw away from the iconic backdrop of Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights and the bustling town of Halifax, stands the impressive Holdsworth House.
Recently, Holdsworth House welcomed Hollywood stars Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie, set to portray Heathcliff and Cathy in Emerald Fennell’s upcoming adaptation of Wuthering Heights. The property exudes an air of historic charm with crackling log fires and dim, timber beams, tracing its roots back to the 13th century when it started as a simple cluster of barns. Today, it stands as a luxurious retreat offering exceptional dining, premium drinks, and top-notch service.
During filming, Holdsworth House provided a sanctuary for the cast and crew, shielding them from the harsh moorland winds as they worked on bringing Brontë’s masterpiece to life on the big screen.
For fans of Wuthering Heights, the opportunity to stay at Holdsworth House is a dream come true. The property, which has been featured in Airbnb, offers the chance to book Cathy’s room for couples, with limited availability. Requests to book this exclusive experience can be made starting from 12 pm on February 20, with three lucky winners chosen for a unique Wuthering Heights stay. Alternatively, guests can still enjoy a stay at Holdsworth House in one of its other charming rooms.
Reflecting on a day filled with Wuthering Heights-inspired adventures, guests at Holdsworth House are treated to a sumptuous banquet reminiscent of the film. The evening includes exploring the quarters where Jacob Elordi, playing Heathcliff, resided, complete with opulent furnishings mirroring the movie set.
The enchanting experience continues with a visit to Haworth, where the village’s Main Street takes on a magical aura as night falls. The Hawthorn, a historic local pub, becomes the evening’s focal point, offering a cozy atmosphere and delectable food and drinks.
As the day winds down, guests return to Holdsworth House for fireside stories and a moment of reflection before retiring to their comfortable rooms. With rates starting from £154 per night, Holdsworth House invites visitors to immerse themselves in the world of Wuthering Heights and experience a touch of literary magic in the heart of West Yorkshire.
