Attractions & Leisure

Bradford offers endless possibilities for a great day out in Yorkshire, with its museums, galleries, cinema, theatre and shopping.

Nearby UNESCO World Heritage Site, Saltaire, is a perfect example of a Victorian village. Today Salts Mill is home to one of the largest collections of David Hockney's work.

Ilkley is also known for its good shopping and eating out, as well as having some of the most beautiful countryside in Yorkshire. White Wells and the Manor House, two of Ilkley's historical attractions, illustrate Ilkley's long and fascinating history.

History is also to be found in Haworth, the home of the Brontës. The Brontë Parsonage Museum is a wonderful place to learn more about this famous family. Steam trains, stately homes and transport museums are just some of Brontë Country must-sees.
