The Keighley & Worth Valley Railway is a unique 5-mile branch line railway set in the heart of West Yorkshire, running heritage steam and diesel trains from the industrial landscape of Keighley to the stunning Brontë Country of Oxenhope.

It is well-known as ‘The Railway Children Line’ since being thrust into the limelight in the 1970s when Lionel Jeffries selected the railway to be the backdrop for his adaption of  E. Nesbit’s “The Railway Children”. This launched the railway onto the big screen over 50 years ago, with iconic scenes along the Worth Valley with the paper chase at Mytholmes Tunnel and Oakworth Station. “The Railway Children Return” is a brand new feature film, the sequel is set during World War 2, and sees Keighley & Worth Valley is used as the backdrop once again.

Please note that the hotel no longer has a swimming pool. There are some pictures of the pool on Google, but this has ben closed since the COVID-19 lockdown.
