Knaresborough a Top Site
Knaresborough
A very warm welcome from Teri on our arrival at Knaresborough.
A spacious site with large pitches.
All the wardens were friendly, efficient and hard working with the facilities kept up to a high standard. Unfortunately the Wanderer Kitchen was in a state of metamorphosis, but opens again on 17th.,the Guy Fawkes PH in the village was not particularly welcoming and then closed during our stay. However it’s free parking in the town after 6pm so other options available. Drakes chippie superb.
A good Wednesday market in town. The Saturday Artisan Market was busy, with a nice variety of stalls. Whilst the Castle and Courtyard Museum well worth a visit.
The Marigold Cafe and Boating on the banks of the river, the best we found, in a picturesque setting, as long as you are happy to walk back up the hill.
Pateley Bridge a pretty town , can recommend Wildings Tea rooms by the river Cold stone cut and Stump Cross Cavern on the scenic road to Grassington worth a look to. Jenny’s cafe and Heal Coffee Shop good, in Harrogate where we visited on a damp day using the local buses, so no parking problems.
Ripon, Skipton, Ilkley and Otley and the surrounding countryside not to far, whilst York is no distance. A site to be recommended
