Great days out


Dive into the past, discover treasures from around the world, follow in the footsteps of the Brontės, pamper yourself or get active - it's up to you!

Bygone days

Step back in time to the Elizabethan era at Longley Old Hall and Oakwell Hall. Explore the legacy of our textile heritage at Colne Valley Museum, or travel 460 feet underground at the National Coal Mining museum and discover our industrial past.

Art attack

From the watercolours and pastels of Ashley Jackson, to ceramics at the Art and Craft Space and Booth House. If you enjoy contemporary art and sculpture, visit the changing exhibitions at the Media Centre and Huddersfield Art Gallery and enjoy the well renowned Yorkshire sculpture park.

Museums

Discover Brontë connections at Red House and Oakwell Hall, or enjoy the history of Rugby league and Britain's rarest car. You'll be spoilt for choice.

Stimulate your senses

Take a tour of Summer Wine country, or hire a classic car or carriage drive! Enjoy laserquest, sports and football action, or relax and get away from it all at the luxurious Titanic Spa.

Family fun

From tiny tots to the big-kid in us, you'll find exciting activities and events for all the family. Take the train at Kirklees Light Railway, or discover rare breeds at Ponderosa. Visit the ancestors at Tolson Museum or travel the world at Bagshaw Museum.
