Harrogate short break ideas

[123fushia]

My dd17 and I are going to Harrogate next week for a short break. We have a session booked at the Turkish baths. Any recommendations for places to go and other things to do? I like country walks, she likes shopping and sleeping!

Definitely go to Betty’s tea rooms.
RHS Harlow Carr is not far at all and well worth a good visit.

We walked through the very beautiful Valley Gardens and followed the trail to RHS Harlow Carr I suppose it took us roughly an hour to walk there. Lovely walk and HC is well worth a visit. We treated ourselves to a two course lunch in Betty’s at HC, amazingly good and such a treat! Enjoy!

The drum & monkey is the best restaurant

Try the Tannin Level, better than the Mum and Drunkey and yes that is deliberate...

I think Harlow Carr gardens are a right royal rip off
The valley gardens are free and much better and are right in the centre of town so very easy to walk too

[NaomifromMilkshake]

Agree re Valley Gardens.

Actually the best restaurant is the Italian Connection. Try the lobster and salmon ravioli.
