A unique chance to stay in the house that inspired the Brontes
High above Stanbury, on the edge of the moor the Brontes knew and loved, we overlook Ponden Reservoir, where no two days are the same, but every day is beautiful.
Now you can share some of that Bronte experience by staying in one of our three unique rooms.
Our rooms
We are Steve Brown and Julie Akhurst, and we’ve lived at Ponden Hall since 1998, moving in exactly a month before we got married.
“Ponden Hall is surrounded by the beautiful, rolling greenery of the Yorkshire countryside. I visited for a tour around the hall whose stunning architecture dates back to the 1500s. Ponden Hall is mindful of its literary and historical traditions and provides a pleasant and truly memorable experience. I’m sure I will be returning in the future.”

Everyone should visit Ponden Hall. For me, the initial draw was the house’s literary ties, and it didn’t disappoint there: there are period details everywhere to stir up the imagination.
What really surprised me was the warmth of the place – it was nothing like the forbidding Wuthering Heights depicted in the novel! I couldn’t think of a more welcoming, cosy and comfortable place to spend a hard-earned break.

Jim Murphy from Wigan stayed last night with his wife Caroline and son Damon in the Heaton Room, and as he left handed me a folded piece of lined paper.
An odd thing about the hamlet of Ponden, is that, although tiny, it seems to have been involved in one way or another with many of the major happenings of the area.

Coffee cakes are a love them/hate them thing – I rarely make one for guests, since those who dislike coffee flavouring really dislike it –
As part of my ongoing excursions into Scandinavian cookery I made a plate of these scented, crispy lavender biscuits this morning.

We live here at Ponden Hall, and we’ve been here for 16 years.
We got back from a week’s holiday in the early hours yesterday, to discover that in our absence the moors had exploded in colour! I don’t know whether it’s last
