Tom's cabin

About this property

Nestled on the outskirts of the lovely Knaresborough in North Yorkshire, is this charming single-storey property, Tom's Cabin. Benefitting from an open-plan living area, off-road parking and close access to the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Tom’s Cabin welcomes two guests, perfect for a romantic escape with your loved one. Upon entering your new home-from-home, kick back and relax in the plush sitting area as the designated chef gets to grips with a modest range of appliances to rustle up a tasty dish; settle down at the dining table ready to tuck in or venture out onto the private lawn area to enjoy an alfresco affair as the stars appear overhead. If the evening grows cooler, retreat back inside and treat yourself to a warm shower in the en-suite bathroom before climbing into a sumptuous double bed where you can slope off into a night’s refreshing embrace. If you can tear yourself away from this charming base, venture into the centre of Knaresborough where you’ll find all your nearest conveniences so you can stock up on the essentials or delight in a hearty pub lunch on the days you don’t feel like cooking; here, you can also tour the 14th century ruins of Knaresborough Castle, take a relaxing stroll along the River Nidd to reach Knaresborough Viaduct, or look for Mother Shipton’s Cave. Further afield, spend the day in the lovely spa town of Harrogate, home to the Royal Pump Museum, Valley Gardens Harrogate and of course, the renowned Bettys Café Tea Rooms, where you can sample a whole host of tasty treats! Traverse the Yorkshire Dales National Park to discover the National Trust sites of Brimham Rocks and Fountains Abbey, in addition to Hardraw Force Waterfall, Ingleborough Cave and Malham Cove, all with plenty to fill your days. For your next romantic retreat with the one you love, choose Tom's Cabin.

One of the nicest places in North Yorkshire is the old market and spa town of Knaresborough, which is located on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales and has a view of the River Nidd. Its position makes it the perfect starting point for exploring the breathtaking countryside of the Yorkshire Dales and North Yorkshire Moors National Parks. For those who enjoy history, Knaresborough Castle, St. John's Church, and Knaresborough House were all constructed by the Normans somewhere around 1100 AD. Mother Shipton's petrifying well, the Courthouse Museum, "Ye Oldest Chymist Store in England," which dates back to 1720, and the eccentric House in the Rock are some of the town's additional attractions. Outdoor enthusiasts can go cycling, climbing, fishing, boating, having lovely walks by the river, or just relaxing and taking in the stunning environment. The town centre is filled with unique stores and galleries, and every Wednesday, a vibrant and bustling market is held there. Nearby attractions include the spa town of Harrogate, the magnificent stately homes of Castle Howard and Harewood House, the Cistercian abbeys of Fountains, Rievaulx, and Jervaulx, as well as the castles of Middleham, Bolton, and Richmond. Both Ripon and York are fascinating, historic cathedral cities.
