Holmfirth, an old traditional Pennine town on the edge of the West Yorkshire Pennines, is located in the heart of the lovely Holme Valley. Holmfirth is more than Compo and Nora Battye's stockings, as made famous by the TV series The Last of the Summer Wine. The 'Picturedrome,' the best live music venue in the North of England, attracts many well-known bands and is conveniently located in the town centre. The Tour de France 2014 and the Tour de Yorkshire 2014 pelotons both passed through this small Holme Valley village on their way to the famed 524-meter Holme Moss climb two miles distant. Ed Clancy, a three-time Olympic medalist in cycling, grew up amid these hills. Holmfirth also includes an excellent public pool and fitness centre, as well as parks and a few supermarkets and restaurants. The people are pleasant, the streets are charming, and the scenery is stunning. The Peak District National Park is also conveniently accessible, with its moors, dales, woodlands, lakes, and reservoirs. The Upper Derwent Region, home to the magnificent Ladybower and Derwent reservoirs, is only a short scenic drive away, as is the famed 617 'Dambusters' Squadron, which trained the daring bombing operation on the Ruhr valley in 1943.

From heather-clad moors and limestone scars, to market towns and the steady pace of country life - the sublime Dales await you! Where else in Britain is it as satisfying to sit and do nothing as it is to explore the numerous pursuits on offer?
