What visitors say
Cliffe House is well known to many in Huddersfield who spent time there on school trips. A beautiful mock Tudor style manor house with an extensive lawn, garden and adventure play area owned and managed by Kirklees council. We chose it for our wedding reception venue and weren't disappointed. The staff were really helpful in both the run up to and on the day itself. We had a wonderful day and the house helped make it a success.

We booked on to the holiday activity Archery. It was so good we booked again. The host had lots of information and was happy to help everyone. The first time it was a large group but the second time it was a rainy day but as we knew it was undercover we still booked, this time was quiet and even the adults had a try. There are lots of picnic tables and the play area is very big with slides a zip line and lots more rope challenges.

Visited for the art event with my toddler and really enjoyed it. Would of been nice there had been some food stalls within the hall instead of just Cliffe House normal food on offer.

Brilliant playground used by kids of all ages. Only open during half term which is the only fly in the ointment unfortunately. Activity sessions are brilliant, our kids really enjoy them.
