RTFM (maybe available on the WWW if you don't have one).

A guess - just pull away & the handbrake will release when car has enough oomph to not slip back?

Exactly. As long as you've got the hill hold turned on, just drive away as usual and it will both stop you rolling back and release automagically.

There are also scenic hills in Yorkshire (and lots of other places).
