Harrogate is an incredibly attractive town with a richly woven, historic tapestry of architecture. Look about the buildings and feel the past in their shapes. Although mainly Victorian, Harrogate has excellent examples of many periods in history.
It is a set in one of the most beautiful areas of the British Isles . Situated just to the North of the sprawling cities of Leeds and Bradford and to the South of the rugged Yorkshire Moors, Harrogate is the perfect blend. Harrogate is sophisticated and cosmopolitan, whilst retaining the charm of many a bygone era. It can be a serene and peacefully picturesque place but is also lively enough to be one of the premier Conference venues in the world.
Conference Centre
The Harrogate International Centre, with a renowned 2,009-seat auditorium interlinked with seven exhibition halls and the delightful 864-seat Royal Hall, stands resplendent and is just a short walk from your base here at The Acorn Lodge. The 2004 entertainment's schedule already includes world class entertainment such as: the Moscow Ballet, Go West, Jools Holland, Amici Forever as well as scheduled conferences concentrating on antiques and fine arts as well as swim wear and bridal exhibitions to name but a few highlights, in a packed calendar of events.
Turkish Baths
A visit to the Turkish Baths is an indulgence you really should not miss out on. The building itself is exquisite and the tiling is pure art. After using the extensive facilities, you will be left with a feeling of exhilaration, euphoria and absolute cleanliness.
All you need bring are your personal toiletries as fresh, soft towels are provided. Allow yourself a recommended visit time of two and a half hours to obtain maximum benefit from the Turkish Baths
Firstly, after a shower, visit the Steam Room where high humidity, made gently fragrant with cleansing Eucalyptus, opens pores, penetrates the respiratory system and eases tense muscles.
Then have a shower before taking a bracing dip in the Plunge Pool.
Towel down and work your way up through the three inter-connecting Hot Room Chambers - Tepidarium (warm), the Calidarium (hot), and the Laconium (hottest) allowing the warmth to continue its therapeutic effect on skin and well being. Repeat this cycle as often as you wish, then spend half an hour cooling down in the elegant Frigidarium (Relaxation Room) to round off this enjoyable experience
Parks and Nature
Justifiably proud of being " England's Floral District", the Harrogate District overflows with beautiful parks, floral displays and gardens, both public and those belonging to historic houses, castles and abbeys. The now famous Valley Gardens are so beautiful and varied, they have become gardener Alan Titsmarsh's favourite.
Harrogate is the perfect base for exploring the moors or doing business. It is just 20 minutes drive to The Leeds Bradford Airport and is well served by public transport. Here at The Acorn Lodge you may find driving just as easy as we have ample parking.
We look forward to welcoming you to our warm, friendly hotel and hope your stay will be wonderful. Please do let us know what we can do to make it even more special by calling or submitting the following contact form. We will get back to you just as soon as we can
