Itâs got a garage plus plenty of on-street parking and is in a brilliant locationâjust a minuteâs walk from a Sainsburyâs and lovely cafes. The town centre and Harrogate Conference Centre are less than 10 minutes away, and it's easy to get into York and Leeds by public transport. The main bedroom is charming, with high ceilings and a very comfortable king-size bed and high-quality linen. The second bedroom is cosy with twin beds, and the kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need. The private south-facing patio was a lovely spot to unwind. The hosts were fantasticâjust around the corner if neededâand left a really thoughtful welcome pack with wine, treats and everything you need for a cuppa. A charming stay regardless of the occasion. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed a couple of meals out, the rest of our week, we self catered, using the well equipped kitchen, microwave and oven and hob. Shower was powerfully, central heating made a very warm home from home, and the large double bedroom, felt like a Hotel. Bedding Hotel quality, and bed extremely comfortable! A lovley flat.
