Fountains Hall is a hidden gem within Studley Royal Park. You will love its historic charm, built from the stones of the nearby abbey, and its connection to the stunning Elizabethan and Jacobean architecture. Only parts of the hall are open to explore, but the exhibitions provide a fascinating glimpse into its past. The real highlight, though, is the setting. With water gardens, roaming deer, and the ruins of Fountains Abbey just steps away, it’s a perfect mix of history and natural beauty. A fair bit of walking is involved, but most find it well worth it. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Fountains Abbey – it adds character, history, and scenic views to the day.

Great coffee at grindhus

Very beautiful woodland walk.

Superb off road cycle track, busy, great pub in Ripley the Boars Head.

The church dates to the late 12th or early 13th century, but very little remains of that early medieval building. The church was comprehensively rebuilt in the 15th century and restored in 1859.

A very impressive building. This is actually a hotel and very dearly priced, I am sure! The estate is a 20,000-acre one and one of the largest privately owned estates in England (which is quite possibly saying something...) The hotel itself benefits from 200 acres of gardens. You're probably not going in... but it's nonetheless a fabulous building to look at: it has been owned by the Cunliffe-Lister family since the 1880s.

On a bike - Best to approach from Church St & The Bull Inn as steps at end of small path from North.

Knaresborough Castle, a bastion cherished by medieval monarchs, graces its surroundings with a stunning presence, commanding a view over the flowing waters of the River Nidd. The castle's historical trail first emerges in 1129, and subsequent refurbishment was undertaken by Edward I, with the project ultimately culminating under the guidance of Edward II between 1307 and 1312. This comprehensive endeavour included the erection of the magnificent Great Keep, often referred to as the King's Tower, a testament to the castle's regal legacy. https://www.visitharrogate.co.uk/business-directory/knaresborough-castle-museum
