The beautiful spot in northern England used for filming Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi’s Wuthering Heights
TODAY is the day that Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi’s Wuthering Heights is out in cinemas.
The adaptation of Emily Brontë‘s novel is set to wow movie fans – and viewers will be stunned by the beautiful backdrop which was filmed across the sprawling Yorkshire Dales.
It was reported that the two Hollywood stars were filming in the Yorkshire Dales National Park early in 2025.
Cast and crew took over spots across the moors like Swaledale and Arkengarthdale.
Both valleys are known for their wild moorland scenery.
For those visiting, Swaledale is a great spot for hiking the Pennine Way, or take a drive to explore the Buttertubs Pass.
It’s essentially a mountain road with steep climbs that crosses the moorland between Wensleydale and Swaledale.
It’s popular with cyclists and motorcyclists, one visitor called it “one of the best driving routes in the whole country.”
The village of Low Row in Swaledale which has traditional stone cottages also featured in the film.
Anybody wanting to stay nearby can pop into The Punch Bowl Inn.
They serve up ‘Yorkshire food with a modern twist’ – in the evenings you can munch on the likes of fish and chips, burgers and Cajun salmon salad.
Rooms are available there too with a one night stay priced at £160.
Arkengarthdale is quiet hiking spot and is known for being home to the highest pub in the country called the Tan Hill Inn.
The historic pub is 1,732 feet above sea level, and it dates back to the 17th century it has exposed beams, stone-flagged floor, and a cosy fire.
Dig into some hearty Yorkshire meals, or book a room from £119 per night.
Another backdrop from the film is Surrender Bridge – it’s a Grade II listed, 19th-century stone bridge just outside of Swaledale.
It first became famous for appearing in the opening scenes of the 1980s All Creatures Great and Small TV series.
Another spot that wasn’t actually used for filming, but could see more visitors, is Haworth.
It’s heavily tied with the Brontës, sisters Emily, Charlotte and Anne – as their family lived there.
The village is still described by visitors as like ‘stepping back in time’ thanks to its cobbled streets and old English pubs.
It pays tribute to the sisters with its Brontë Parsonage Museum.
These spots are set to see a boom of tourists this year – along with a hotel that housed the actors whilst on their shoot.
Jake Dinsdale, from Simonstone Hall Hotel, near Hawes, told the BBC that the “set-jetting” concept is a reality.
He added: “We are getting visitors coming in from Canada, Germany and the States.”
The Simonstone Hall Hotel is in heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park – rooms have boasting four-poster beds, soaking tubs and stunning views.
Room rates start from £118 per night.
