ZAPATO SUPPORTS SUSTAINABLE TRAVEL

The beautiful Colne Valley in West Yorkshire

WALKING

We are located right by the Huddersfield Narrow Canal at Holme Mills, just off West Slaithwaite Road. It’s an flat 1.3 mile walk from Slaithwaite or 1.6 miles from Marsden along the towpath. The towpath has some bumpy slopes and can be a bit muddy in winter, so care needed with buggies and wheelchairs.

ACCESSIBILITY

The tap and beer garden have step-free access. We have a large accessible toilet with baby changing facilities.

The front door and main bathroom door width is currently 800mm, which some wheelchair users can navigate easily, however some users with wider wheelchairs may experience difficulties. We are looking into options on how we can widen our doorways. Our team are always happy to assist customers with accessing the tap. Please do not hesitate to ask, or contact us in advance at tap@zapatobrewing.com and we’ll do everything we can to help.

ON YOUR BIKE

You can cycle to us along the canal towpath or on the A62 Manchester Road from either direction and there is plenty of room to park your bike.
