Standedge Tunnel (50 minute drive)
Take a canal trip.
Standedge Tunnel is the longest, deepest and highest canal tunnel in the entirety of Britain. Measuring at just over 5000m long, the tunnel truly is a feat of engineering. Take a boat trip through the tunnel or enjoy a stroll along the canal before stopping for coffee and cake at the nearby coffee house.

Emmerdale Village Tour (35 minute drive)
Take a walk around Yorkshire’s favourite village.
While there won’t be any filming, you can explore the real Emmerdale set on the actors’ day off. It’s an outside walking tour, so unfortunately there’ll be no nipping into The Woolpack for a quick pint, but there’s opportunities to take plenty of pictures.
