  • A quirky Grade II listed period property arranged over three floors with a wealth of original features
  • Excellent location on the River Nidd offering castle and river views
  • A turreted roof top terrace a fantastic place to relax and enjoy the views
Property code: HH090

Stay in a Grade II listed turreted property with its own cave cut into the side of the cliff and roof-top terrace with views of the River Nidd. All this can be yours, and it’s within 0.3 miles of Knaresborough town centre. This unique property is a great place to stay, whatever the reason for your visit to North Yorkshire.

 

A fantastic blend of period features and contemporary fixtures and furnishings, this quirky  property is the perfect spot for a truly memorable stay. Beamed ceilings in almost all of the rooms as well as exposed brickwork give the property a charming appeal, whilst views to the river and castle can be enjoyed from two of the four bedrooms as well as the roof terrace. The ground floor offers an attractive kitchen with a 200-year old floor, seven steps from which lead to the spacious lounge/diner, which in turn leads through to the cave cut into the cliffs. The bathroom has a sumptuous rolltop bath and separate shower cubicle. Please not that children and pets are not permitted to use the roof terrace due to the low railings, but there is separate garden accessed via the first-floor landing which is a great spot for BBQs.

 

Situated right on the riverside in the market town of Knaresborough, this property is ideally situated for easy access to the town centre shops and eateries, as well as for the station which is situated just a stroll away, a few hundred metres along the river, allowing easy, frequent access into Harrogate for its convention centre and spa baths.

This property has a fantastic location but sadly is not value for money. Everything felt old,tired and the house was damp. It is in need of a refresh to be charging what they are charging for this property. Stayed in a lot of old properties that were maintained a lot better than this one.

What a stunning location! Absolutely perfect for riverside walks, the train to York or Harrogate and a lot of excellent coffee and cake. The house was charming, cozy and full of character, and we loved being able to hear the Church bells. There are a lot of steps inside and out (as it says in the description) so I wouldn't recommend for anyone withRead more very young children or with mobility issues. But otherwise we had a lovely break in a fabulous part of the country. Hide

This quirky property oozes so much charm and originality which we loved. It is extremely spacious for 6 people. It is well equipped and has everything you could possibly need. We loved the central location where we could sit on the terrace and watch the world go by.

The house is in a good location, opposite the boat rental place and just a short walk from the town. Lots of places to walk dogs.
