“Last of the Summer Wine” was filmed primarily in and around the small town of Holmfirth, in the Holme Valley, West Yorkshire, England. Many exterior scenes used real streets, cafes, and houses in Holmfirth and nearby villages in the surrounding Pennine hills.

Main filming location

  • The series was set and shot on location in Holmfirth, a town about six miles south of Huddersfield in West Yorkshire.
  • Productions used the town’s valley setting and steep hills to create the show’s distinctive countryside look.

Notable spots fans visit

  • Sid’s Café in central Holmfirth is the real café frontage used regularly in the series and now trades on its connection to the show.
  • Nora Batty’s famous steps and Compo’s house are real properties in Holmfirth that fans still seek out on “Summer Wine country” walking tours.

Wider area around Holmfirth

  • Some scenes were filmed in other Holme Valley villages such as Holmbridge and in the surrounding West Yorkshire countryside.
  • The broader “Summer Wine country” covers the rural landscape around Holmfirth that appears in many of the walking and slapstick outdoor sequences.
