This gorgeous property, situated less than a mile’s walk from the centre of Harrogate, is the perfect romantic getaway for two – including the pup, of course! Sleeping you both in a sumptuous king-size bed, this first-floor studio apartment is an opportunity to enjoy a little bit of luxury after a long day out exploring the wonderful Yorkshire Dales National Park. Go for short walkies along the Bewerley Tree Trail (15 miles), or enjoy a longer walk on the Scot Gate Ash route that starts in the centre of Pateley Bridge (14 miles).
As soon as you step into this apartment, you’re greeted by opulent furnishings and rich decor in a bright and airy open-plan style. A large window looks out over the side garden, while the compact kitchen opposite has everything you need to cook up delicious meals for each other. Dine at the table by the window, watching your favourite series on the wall-mounted Smart TV, the dog snoozing by your feet. Take an indulgent soak in the roll-top bath before bed in the stunning en-suite bathroom where luxurious fittings make for a spa-like experience; there’s also a shower over the bath for added convenience. Outside, there’s a pretty side and front garden that’s shared with the other apartments for you to enjoy.
Go for a stroll around the 8 acres of gardens at Beningbrough Hall (25 miles) where you’ll find plenty of spots for a picnic. Visit How Stean Gorge (21.5 miles) where you can explore natural caves and climb up rocks, all with your loyal hound in tow. Closer to home, Mother Shipton’s Cave (3 miles) is England’s oldest attraction and you can walk along the River Nidd, experience the Petrifying Well and see some of the tallest beech trees in the country.
