High Hollins is for couples wanting a cosy, quiet retreat from the rat race. A country escape where time slows down. Where there's time to sit, to watch Annette's homemade biscuits slide unapologetically into your afternoon tea. It's that sort of place. Spend days walking and touring. Spend evenings in good local eateries or hit the highspots of Holmfirth... or just curl up by the fire at home. It's that sort of place.
