Description

Handsome Grade II listed property sleeping six guests and featuring a spectacular turreted rooftop terrace offering views over the River Nidd and Knaresborough’s medieval castle.

This property is located on the riverside in the historic town of Knaresborough, directly opposite a popular boathouse from where visitors can hire rowing boats by the hour to enjoy the river at a fun, leisurely pace. Of course, walks can also be enjoyed along the riverside, as well as in the dramatic valley of the nearby Nidd Gorge. In around the town there are a number of places of interest as well as a good range of shops, cafes, and pubs. The towns castle and neighbouring museum are located to the east of the town, whilst towards the west side of town the petrifying cave at Mother Shiptons cave is an unusual, yet fascinating, naturally occurring phenomena.

Stepping through the front door of this Grade II listed property, guests come first to the lounge/diner, a comfortable room with a dining area towards the rear of the space and a lounge area with its beamed ceiling, feature fireplace, and TV/DVD. Patio doors from the dining area open onto an unusual “cave” which offers a secluded seating area cut into the cliff face. A short flight of stairs leads up to the kitchen, a lovely light room with a flagstone floor which is equipped with a Range oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and washer/dryer. Just off from this room there is a handy cloakroom with WC. Another short flight of stairs leads to a landing off from which there is a cosy single room and an attractive double room which benefits from a Juliet balcony overlooking the river. A further set of stairs then leads onto a second double bedroom with its exposed brick wall and views to Knaresborough Castle. The fourth bedroom is another single room, whilst the bathroom is extremely well-appointed offering a roll-top bath, separate shower, and WC.

A door from the first-floor landing opens onto a lawned garden overlooking the river. A wooden walkway from here leads up to the stunning turreted roof terrace which, with its garden furniture, is a delightful spot to sit out and relax over drinks whilst enjoying the views. Please note that there is a low wall to the rooftop terrace which makes it unsuitable for children or pets. There is roadside parking close to the property.

Dogs fees are charged per dog at £20.00 for up to 7 nights, £40.00 for up to 14 nights and an additional £20.00 for every week or part week thereafter.
