Durker Roods Hotel – Holmfirth
The magnificent Durker Roods Hotel was originally built in 1870 as a
private residence and became the family home of entrepreneur, Sir
David Brown, who built up the David Brown Gears business in
Huddersfield and the David Brown Tractors operation at Meltham
Mills. In 1947, Brown purchased a High Class Motor Business and
acquired Aston Martin the following year.
The legendary 'DB' series of Aston Martin motor cars, including the
DB5 famously driven by James Bond, the DB6, the DB7, DB9 and the DBS
were all named after Brown using his initials.
The residence was converted in to a hotel in 1975
and since then it has established a distinct reputation as a
principle venue for weddings, celebrations and all corporate events.
Durker Roods Hotel exudes traditional grandeur and
charm, and having been recently restored now enjoys a stylish mix
co-coordinating both old and new, making it an ideal venue for every
occasion. Durker Roods Hotel is also renowned for its exceptional
