Kensington House

Kensington House is a three-bedroom family home in Harrogate's town centre, positioned between the Valley Gardens and the high street. You have the whole place to yourself: three double bedrooms upstairs, a bathroom with bath and shower, and downstairs a living room with Smart TV, dining space, and a kitchen equipped for proper cooking. The essentials—heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi—are covered. There's a garden at the back with seating, and parking for one car on site. One dog is welcome at no extra cost.

The location does most of the work. Valley Gardens is a 17-acre landscaped park within walking distance. Harrogate's high street, with its restaurants, cafés and tea rooms, is on the doorstep. Knaresborough, known for its viaduct and riverside setting, is a short drive, as is York. The property suits families and friends sharing costs over a weekend or longer break. No smoking indoors.
