Discover Yorkshire with Brontë Walks. We offer tours, guides and so much more to make your visit to Yorkshire a memorable one. I am a Blue Badge Tourist Guide for Yorkshire and my love of the county and in particular Haworth and the moors that surround it is the inspiration for my work. I offer a wide range of guides walks, tours, support for tour companies, meet and greet services, day tours, drive tours and extended tours across the whole of Yorkshire. My job is to help you discover Yorkshire and all that it has to offer. The ‘Passionate Brontës’ is our acclaimed walking tour of Haworth that tells the story of the Brontë family. I use their letters, poems and writing to weave the story into the social fabric of the times. This is offered as either a scheduled walk that all are welcome to join, or as a private tour. It is the most wonderful prelude to visiting the Parsonage Museum. The times for these walks do vary and it is best to check when they are running.

* 17th March - we have closed the museum due to the C-19 outbreak. Check website for the latest information.* The Bronte Parsonage is the former home of the world's most famous literary family and the place where Charlotte, Emily and Anne wrote some of the greatest novels in the English Language. The house evokes the atmosphere of the Brontes' time and offers visitors an unique insight into their day - to - day lives and varied interests. The rooms the Brontes' used are largely unchanged and are filled with a world-class collection of furniture, clothes and personal possessions. Whether you are a fan of the Brontes' writing or simply intrigued by remarkable people and their stories, you will find visiting the Parsonage an absorbing and unforgettable experience. The museum offers an ever-changing programme of exhibitions, events, and activities for the whole family. Listed opening hours reflect first and last entry to the Museum (Last entry 4.30, shop remains open until 5.00pm).
This is an excellent museum to visit - and not just for Bronte fans - there is plenty to see and occupy the visitor for hours. Bronte fans will find it exceptional - there are many personal items belonging to the Bronte's to look at - its so inspiring and the staff are really passionate about the place - and really helpful too. The surrounding area is good to explore too - including a walk on the moors.

A bracing walk over a lovely moorland, passing the Bronte falls and bridge, a small part of the way we were followed by a little Grouse that made its rather strange territorial squawk, very well signposted round trip

My 13-year-old daughter and I made this hike one afternoon while staying in Haworth. I believe there are guided tours, but we decided to follow a crowd and do the hike ourselves. The falls are about 2 1/2 miles each way from the parsonage...another mile or 2 to Top Withens...but we didn't go that far. Lovely scenery and peaceful. We went on a partly cloudy day. I would take sturdy shoes and water to drink. It's a little hike but worth the effort!

Visited this church as I believed that I've got ancestors that lived and worked in the Haworth area a couple of hundred years ago,lovely church and well worth a visit,I managed to find one of my ancestors Graves in the churchyard,which was a bit strange as it is so big,but I'll be back there in a couple of weeks to pay my respects again
