Esholt & Otley
Step into the world of Emmerdale with visits to two of the show’s most iconic real-life filming locations. First, we stop in Esholt - used as the original Emmerdale village from the 1970s through to the 1990s. Fans will recognise familiar sights like the Woolpack pub, and the village itself still carries plenty of charm for a nostalgic wander.
Then it’s on to Otley, known on-screen as the market town of Hotton. With its traditional high street, riverside walks, and welcoming atmosphere, it’s easy to see why this town became a regular backdrop in the show. A must for fans and a lovely visit for anyone who enjoys a classic Yorkshire setting.
