Holbeck Urban Village: Live It

Want to be part of a dynamic and lively new community? Want to be able to read the morning papers in an Italian style piazza two minutes walk from the city centre? Want to live in a high quality, sustainable environment?

Located just to the south of Leeds city centre, Holbeck Urban Village combines the scale and feel of a community with all the advantages of city living. Only ten minutes from the hustle and bustle of Leeds city centre, a short walk in the opposite direction takes you into the surrounding communities of Holbeck and Beeston Hill.

These communities are home to a diverse mix of cultures and lifestyles which come together every year to create an energetic showcase for the area at the annual Holbeck Gala.
