Shortlisted for the White Rose Awards final - for second consecutive year

Holdsworth House has made it to the finals of the Welcome to Yorkshire White Rose Awards for the second consecutive year.

The prestigious awards recognises the best of Yorkshire's accommodation and tourist attractions and Holdsworth House is once again shortlisted for the Large Hotel of the Year title.

Hotel general manager, Mr Joseph Farrar, said "This is amazing news for Holdsworth House. To be shortlisted last year was incredible, but to reach the finals again this year is extra special. There are some incredible hotels in the final and to be ranked alongside them makes us all feel very proud. This comes off the back of our recent win at the I Do Wedding Awards for
Best Wedding Venue, making 2016 a great year for us."

Farrar continues, 'We've continued to invest in the hotel and we're always looking to develop new ideas so that we can offer guests something special, somewhere unique. We've just created two new roomy suites by knocking together our former single rooms which are going down very well with our wedding parties, plus we've upgraded the bar area with new flooring and furniture. There is lots of investment behind the scenes too to ensure the operation continues to run smoothly."

The White Rose Awards judging process continues throughout the summer and the winner is announced at a glittering awards ceremony in the autumn.

Get Shorty!



Holdsworth House has been shortlisted for the Small Hotel category in the 2012 Welcome to Yorkshire White Rose Awards. The excited team received confirmation from the judges on 25th June and will attend the glittering awards ceremony in October later this year.

General Manager Shane Williams said, “We’re absolutely thrilled to be in the finals for these prestigious awards. The team works so hard to achieve the high standards of customer service and to help grow the hotel’s reputation across Yorkshire and beyond.  It has been a positive start to the year as we were accredited with four stars – the first hotel in Halifax to achieve this.”

The staff at the hotel were recently presented with a commemorative thank you gift from the hotel’s owners in appreciation of their efforts in helping achieve four stars in the 50th year of private ownership.
