Award-winning Newton House in Knaresborough has a novel holiday offer during August 2022: Knaresborough Resort Holidays at Knaresborough-on-the-Nidd.
Owner, Denise Carter says: “In the Summer when the sun comes out everyone heads for the seaside. But Knaresborough, which has been a holiday destination for hundreds of years, can offer just as much (if not more) than a traditional seaside resort – from beaches by the river Nidd, caves and tunnels to explore, to rowing on the river and fish & chips and ice cream.
Here are 10 reasons to choose Knaresborough for your Summer holiday:
– Discover sandy beaches by the river Nidd, or go wild swimming at the Lido – Relax in a rowing boat on the river – depending on who’s rowing of course! – Investigate the tunnels under Knaresborough Castle, perched on top of Knaresborough’s own cliffs. – Explore the caves that were once the homes of Old Mother Shipton and St Robert without the worry of being cut off by the tide. – Enjoy traditional seaside activities like pitch & putt, and crazy golf at Conyngham Hall; the paddling pool in Bebra Gardens; – Relax and unwind in one of Knaresborough’s riverside cafes or pubs. – Eat Fish and Chips on the Market Square sitting next to local characters Blind Jack and Old Mother Shipton. – Enjoy a wide variety of Yorkshire ice creams from Brymor and Yummy Yorkshire to Yorkshire Dales and Italian Gelato. – Look for wildlife in the ancient woodland of Nidd Gorge – from otters and deer to kingfishers and dippers; and search for the source of Knaresborough Spa. – Make friends with the ravens at Knaresborough Castle
