  • "Lovely, well kept, comfortable cottage."

    Had everything we needed. The bed was huge! And very comfy. The shower was nice and powerful. I loved the extra dressing room. We couldn't get the fire to work, but we put the heating on instead, so wasn't a problem. Thank you for the milk, coffee and choccies, also the doggie treats for our doggo. All in all we had a lovely stay...our first week away for 2 years due to myself having cancer treatment....of which I'm clear now

    Hi Caroline, we’re delighted that you chose our cottage to stay in after a tough couple of years of treatment and we hope it was a tranquil break. Knaresborough is a wonderfully healing place and I’m sure you enjoyed the dog walks by the river. We’d have been over in a heartbeat to sort the gas fire for you if we’d know but hope you were all warm and cozy! Thanks so much for the glowing review and wishing you continuous good health! Property Owner

  • "I can't recommend this lovely cottage enough."

    Its a perfect mix of old fashioned comforts and high quality, modern amenities. Tucked away just off the main road in Knaresborough, its quiet but convenient both for the town and station in one direction, and the lovely riverside walks in the other, both about 5 minutes away. Our stay felt like a real home from home. Mike and Zoe, the owners, were super helpful on the occasion we had a query. If you stay here, pls be considerate to the lovely neighbours too. We've stayed in a lot of cottages in the UK and abroad and this was one of the very best. A****. Recommend emphatically for visits to N Yorkshire, and visits to Ripon, Harrogate, Knaresborough, York et al.

    Thank you so much for the lovely review, we’re so pleased you had such a comfortable stay in the cottage and enjoyed everything that our beautiful town of Knaresborough has to offer. Come back soon! Property Owner

KNARESBOROUGH

Harrogate 2 miles; York 18 miles.

Knaresborough is an ancient market and Spa town on the fringe of the Yorkshire Dales, overlooking the River Nidd, and is one of the prettiest towns in North Yorkshire. Its location makes it ideal as a base for touring the stunning countryside of the North Yorkshire Moors and Yorkshire Dales National Parks. For lovers of history, St John’s Church, Knaresborough House and the now-ruined Knaresborough Castle were built by the Normans in around 1100 AD. Other attractions in the town include Mother Shipton’s petrifying well, the Courthouse Museum, "Ye Oldest Chymist Shoppe in England" which dates back to 1720 and the quirky House in the Rock. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy wonderful walks by the river, cycling, climbing, fishing, boating or just sitting and taking in the tranquil atmosphere and beautiful scenery. The town centre has many interesting shops and galleries, and there is a colourful and lively market held on Wednesdays. The fascinating, historic cathedral cities of Ripon and York are close by, as are the Spa town of Harrogate, the great stately homes of Castle Howard and Harewood House, the Cistercian Abbeys of Fountains, Rievaulx and Jervaulx, and the castles of Middleham, Bolton and Richmond.
