Overview
Property code: G0153

The Penthouse is situated down a leafy suburb in the gorgeous Yorkshire town of Harrogate, regularly listed as the best place to live in the UK. Combining elegance and style, the Duchy suburb is well-known as one of the most desirable postcodes in town. Take a stroll into the town centre via the famous Valley Gardens, highly regarded for its stunning floral displays and beautiful landscapes, and wander around the Montpellier Quarter, browsing the antiques dealers and fine art galleries this area is famous for.

The apartment itself is sophisticated and luxurious, with stylish understated interiors, a fabulous balcony, and rooms that have been lavished with exquisite attention to detail. Stepping into the large living room you are immediately drawn to the huge balcony which would be a gorgeous spot for breakfast in the morning or a relaxed sundowner in the evenings. This light and airy open-plan room is divided into living and dining spaces with plenty of entertainment options such as Apple TV and a traditional record player for those who love the sound of a vinyl. Across the hall you'll find a modern kitchen with dual aspect windows and glossy white units. Two bedrooms await weary guests, with the master featuring a king-sized bed adorned with the finest 400 thread count cotton and an en-suite bathroom with large walk-in shower. The second bedroom can be set up as a super king-size or twin room and the family bathroom is just next door.

Outside you'll find a large, well-maintained communal garden and ample off-road parking for up to two cars.

Please note there is a refundable £250 security deposit for this property payable closer to the start of your holiday.

The apartment is set down a quiet leafy suburb in the grand Victorian Spa town of Harrogate. Regularly listed as the best place to live in the UK, Harrogate is a truly gorgeous Yorkshire town which combines traditional elegance with contemporary style effortlessly. And the Duchy suburb is well known as being one of the most desirable postcodes in town.

The property is just a short and very pleasant 2-mile walk away from the centre of town. A walk that takes you down through the famous Valley Gardens, highly regarded for its stunning flower displays and beautiful landscapes.

Best known for its antiques and fine art, Harrogate has antique dealers and galleries around every corner, particularly around the Montpellier Quarter. If buying old paintings and furniture isn't your bag there are a host of other reasons to part with your cash in Harrogate. High fashion outlets nestle alongside lavish interior boutiques, punctuated with enough fine restaurants and cafes to keep you fuelled for weeks.

A visit to Betty's Tearooms is a must and if you have time we highly recommend a session at the famous Turkish Baths. Rejuvenate spirit and soul after a day on the town. If you're travelling with children, Harrogate is famous for its outdoor space with lots of parkland and greenery everywhere. The RHS Gardens at Harlow Carr are also a fantastic option for families.

The apartment is also very close to the Yorkshire Dales and North Yorkshire Moors so makes the perfect base from which to explore the glorious Yorkshire landscape and its many stunning natural sights. The breathtaking Nidderdale is 15 miles away and heading south-west you will be driving through some of the most dramatic Dales scenery. We highly recommend a day trip to gorgeous Ilkley (18 miles) combined with a visit to Bolton Abbey - all just a short drive away.

York is within easy reach (23 miles) and a day-trip to this beautiful medieval city is well worth it. So there is lots of choice, if you can drag yourself away from this beautiful apartment!

The Penthouse was a very agreeable place to stay and in an excellent location. The bedrooms and bathrooms were very comfortable. The living room was ok, not particularly luxurious but functional. The kitchen also was functional though with fairly basic equipment. The two parking spaces at the rear were under trees and only one was really useable.

Great apartment in a beautiful house in a lovely quiet area. The retro decor is a blast from the past. It was very clean and all rooms are spacious. Great welcome pack, coffee and cakes from Bettys and milk for a much needed drink on arrival.

Comfortable, spacious and high quality. On entering the property we were instantly very happy and appreciated the contemporary and luxurious decor. The communal gardens were very well kept and there was ample off road parking.

By far the most luxurious cottage we have stayed in. It was heaven sitting outside on the balcony drinking our champagne. A truly fantastic place to spend our 25th Anniversary. The owners even collected a bouquet of flowers for me for our arrival.

Comfortable flat in a quiet and leafy part of Harrogate. Lovely views from the sitting area and balcony - very peaceful high up in the trees.

Lovely apartment in a really quiet location. This area of Harrogate has lots of very large houses in quiet residential streets. The walk into Harrogate through Valley Gardens was very attractive and we also enjoyed the walk through the Pinewoods to the RHS Gardens. Fountains Abbey is well worth a visit, as is Knaresborough which is very picturesqueRead more. Also great walking from Pateley Bridge and Ilkley Moor. Harrogate is a great base from which to explore.The property does have steep steps up to the second floor and the view from the balcony is over the back garden, which is not so attractive as the front! However overall it is a very nice apartment. Hide

The penthouse is fabulous, every bit as lovely as the photos. Everything we could possibly need was provided, and plenty of huge fluffy towels. Beds were comfy, the location is great, the walk through the park into town is lovely-and not too strenuous. James was also so quick to respond to all my messages. We cant wait to go back.
