Bronte Adventures In Haworth

I had an absolutely fantastic four-hour walk on the Bronte Moors with David. He provided entertaining and informative commentary, and made sure that I was kept safe on a rainy day where there were quite a few slippery spots on the route. He can be seen here testing a route before I embarked on it. I highly recommend his guiding services.

Magical experience. Exploring the beauty of the moors, gazing on wondrous waterfalls, walking through crags and heather. Hearing skylarks, wild grouse and curlews. David took us off the beaten path and was sympathetic to our interests . I highly recommend this walk.

I don’t have the words to say what a wonderful experience my partner and I had with David on our guided walk. He knows this terrain like the back of his hand and took us on a full day’s journey across the moors. David lives there, he knows everyone and everything about the place, and it was an experience that never would have been possible had we gone on our own or joined a group tour. He took us to locations we wouldn’t have found on the map or known how to access on our own (we crawled through the Fairy Cave! hung out at Top Withens! Saw the specific window in the specific house that was the setting for Cathy’s ghost asking to be let in!), and it was magical. He left us off in Haworth, so we could finish our day with a visit to the Parsonage Museum. If you are visiting the area and want to see the locations related to the Brontes or just experience walking this storied landscape, I really can’t recommend David highly enough.

David made our trip to Haworth so magical! We were a group of 6 women visiting Haworth as part of our Bronte literature course. Visiting Haworth really helped us understand the setting where the Bronte sisters grew up, but hiking the moors with David gave us a first-hand view of what inspired them to write their marvelous novels. Davids know the trails inside and out and took us to see some of the most important landmarks that would have been around when the Bronte sisters were alive. The moors are a stunning landscape and David takes you to all of the best spots to take in the sights and sounds of Yorkshire. I highly recommend hiring David to take you on a private guided walk of the area. He is a wealth of knowledge and also, the nicest man!

David organised a really great private tour for me over the Moors to see the Bronte landmarks, I wanted to see Top Withins but what he delivered was so much more than that. We had the most beautiful 8km hike, taking in the Bronte waterfall and bridge as well as some truly stunning scenery - it was a truly magical afternoon filled with so much joy - I learnt so much and it was really great to be out with someone so passionate about the area. Highly recommend!
