Pinterest Boards

The strive to be the world's most forward thinking hotel continues this week as Holdsworth House began building a profile on Pinterest. Pinterest is a website that lets you organize and share images and thoughts. A bit like a designer uses a mood board, people use pin boards to collect ideas - great for planning weddings, decorating your home, and finding new places to travel to. We have three pin boards: Informal Great Taste, Holdsworth House Weddings and Bronte Country, Yorkshire.
