HOTELS IN Harrogate

Things to do in Harrogate

Explore, escape and exfoliate. There’s a lot more to Harrogate than meets the eye and here are some of our favourite things to do around town.

• Book a Turkish bath - Turkish Baths Harrogate first treated guests to steaming and deep cleaning back in 1897. While the same services and ornate interior remains, treatments at the baths now include more luxurious options such as deep tissue massages and bespoke facials.
• Plan your way out of an escape room - You’ve got 60 minutes on the clock, a room filled with puzzles and clues and no obvious way to leave. Will you find a way to escape Clue HQ in time? Take on the challenge as a pair or in a group of six in the inconspicuous building tucked behind James Street.
• Take a stroll through the Stray - The 200 acre-park toward the south of the town centre was once a royal hunting forest. Today, locals head to the Stray in search of colourful flowers and green space away from the crowds. Green-fingered tourists can find more scenic gardens at RHS Garden Harlow Carr, Valley Gardens and Newby Hall in Ripon.
