We visit the market town of Knaresborough, set high above the River Nidd and filled with 'olde worlde' charm, before continuing on to RHS Harlow Carr Gardens.
Evoking the surrounding landscapes with water features, dry stone walls and wooded areas, we explore the colourful herbaceous borders, wildflower meadows and stream side walks. You may like to follow the Sculpture Trail, stroll through the Scented Garden or the Main Borders, or enjoy a treat at the on-site Bettys Café Tea Room.

We are unable to guarantee that the hotel will be able to meet your dietary requirements. We find that the majority of European countries do not generally cater for vegetarians and that the meal supplied may well be what everyone else is having minus the meat.
We will of course endeavour to arrange for a vegetarian meal at the hotel. We do however suggest that you advise us of your dietary requests at the time of booking and recommend that you speak to the receptionist on arrival with regard to your request.
