Beautiful garden. Majority of the grounds are wheelchair/mobility scooter accessible. Lots of benches to sit and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Ample parking, and a Betty’s on site- made the day a really special treat. The plant shop and gift shop were well stocked, and came away with a lemon tree! Just wish it was a bit closer- had a glorious day.

Back again. Membership is truly worth it. Nothing beats this place in my eyes. The beds are to die for and your head is on a constant swivel. As soon as you walk into the gardens you feel at peace and its so good for the mind. The garden centre and shop have everything, although quite pricey and a fat rascal from the Betty's on site tops the day off perfectly.

A beautiful pleasure garden within easy reach of Harrogate. Take public transport to get a significant discount on your ticket. I went in early spring and maybe didn’t see it at its best, but still enjoyed the heather display and the early bulbs. The library is also worth a visit! Avoid the main Betty’s tea room; too crowded and overpriced. I had a lovely tea plus scone at the stand in the gardens.

We had a lovely visit to this garden. Even though it was early Spring there was a lot to see. Betty's cafe is well worth a visit but be aware there are queues to get in sometimes. There is a lovely outdoor cafe though. Children are well catered for too with a nice play area & a trail to follow.

We had a fabulous day out today. The gardens were huge and had a good mix of woodland area and gardens. Our children enjoyed the Easter egg hunt and tried hard to find all 30 eggs! There's fabulous food with Betty's on site as a cafe and kiosks. There were areas to see wildlife and there were a few play areas for the children to go on as they walk round. Definitely worth a visit!

Would have been happier if they charged less for off-season tickets. Only some parts of the garden were beautiful (like in my photo) but not the whole park. I expected to see colorful flowers everywhere but it wasn’t the case. We walked quite some distance with nothing much to see. Don’t expect too much or come later in the year. Maybe it would be more worth it if we had visited this place in Summer.

Visited for the glow event and it was a fun festive evening for the whole family. The gardens looked amazing, the light trail is really well done and the spiced rum hot chocolate towards the end was spot on. From four year old to grandparents everyone had a lovely time. The bubble man was particularly enjoyed and great that the shop was kept open late for the event.

Very helpful staff. Used the tramper, but I think it would be good for the staff to try them out. Some of the inclines were steep, with adverse cambers. You have to experience it to understand how frightening some of it was. That said the gardens were lovely, still undergoing work. Excellent embroidery display in the library and Japanese Gallery.

What a fantastic day. Never been before and well worth the visit. Fantastic gardens lots to see, nice stroll around all the areas with all in bloom, so many ideas for home. Cafe was busy, but Betty's had stalls in the garden, food was great and enjoyable.

Absolutely beautiful gardens! Been visiting for many years now and it never stands still. Always new borders and different sitings for plants. You could never get bored. Changes made every time you visit. Lots of seating for a picnic or just a rest overlooking the amazing trees and flowers and ponds. Streams running through too. Definitely worth visiting.

A lovely place and very pleasant for a few hours out. At the moment (August 2023) there seemed to be quite a bit being redeveloped/dug up so although that’s good in the long term there are a few bits which aren’t as nice as they could be. Highlights are the tropical garden (on the right after the entrance) and walking by the stream. Good for prams and excellent baby changing facilities. Plenty of places to sit and eat a packed lunch or food/coffee from the cafes. There’s a good size playground for children.

We were really impressed when we visited. The grounds are beautiful and well looked after. There are several places on site for eating and drinking and a well stocked shop with lots of books for children in particular. We had great fun exploring the grounds, there was so much to see. The kids loved the playgrounds. Definitely worth a visit!

Beautiful walk. I was working there so not sure of entry fee. Lovely gardens, gorgeous buildings and a wide range if plants. If it was closer to me where I live I would definitely take the Mrs there!

Such a wonderful tranquil, beautiful garden with a variety of plants, trees, shrubbery. I visited when the succulent and cactus exhibition was on by the British cactus and succulent society, it was so great to see all the various different plants including some award-winning cactuses. I would definitely recommend visiting as it's a memorable experience for outdoor lovers and UK explorers.

I was lucky enough to be invited to visit the beautiful gardens today. Absolutely gorgeous with lots of flowers already blooming.

Really well looked after, have joined for the year as it looks different in every season and relaxing place to go, all staff really nice looking forward to their cafe opening soon.

Beautiful gardens, offering Betty's cafe, well maintained and deserving repeat visits as the seasons change

Wonderful place to wander round. Kids areas were busy but not too bad. Free parking appreciated. Nice to see they had taxi drop off spots too. Betty's only to eat at on site at the moment, both with a queue but good service - suggest the one inside the grounds as there are many benches to eat alfresco. Arboretum was glorious and quiet. Enjoyed the succulent and cacti show.

Great day out with beautiful flowers and surroundings. Walked the whole park. Great vibe. Well set out. Great for young and old. Will be back in the summer!

April / Easter was a beautiful time of year to visit RHS Harlow Carr as the vast majority of the azalea and rhoddendrons were in full bloom. We took away this beautiful plant (£10) which was like a snowdrop but from a different family, hoping it multiplies.

Wonderful day! Lovely place. You can spend the whole day there as there is so much to see. On a warm day, children can cool off in the pool and parents can lie on a blanket in the shade. The plants are breathtaking. I will definitely come back here again

Really great place to bring the children. Lots of things to do. Lovely play area with good play equipment. Tennis courts, pitch and put, disc golf and skate park. Café and toilets. Large paddling pool for the hot summer days too.

Fantastic park for taking a stroll around on a nice day. Everywhere is well kept and the flowers in the summer are superb. There’s lots of different sections and things to admire with loads of benches throughout, which is great. There’s a small cafe in the centre, children’s play equipment to one end, and it’d be easy to spend a number of hours here if wanted. Fantastic spot in the centre of the town!

A lovely park close to the city centre of Harrogate, has a tiny stream, small lake, Japanese gardens, tennis courts, and beautiful plants and trees. Parking is an issue if you have never been there before as it says disc zone everywhere which means that you need to get a time disc from the information centre to display in your the time of arrival, also there are many traffic wardens around that can also give you one, if you don't display the disc they are very quick to give you a parking ticket, like we witnessed many cars getting ones, also on one side of the road you can only park for 1 hour and the other side for 3 hours.

Loved our first visit to the Harrogate Valley Gardens and Park - great large established green area with very attractive trees, shrubs and planting along with children's play park with cafe area etc. Would deffo recommend a visit x

Splendid, vast green space to wander about in with a myriad of paths to meander on. I visited on a sunny Saturday and it was really popular with lots of folk perambulating n promenading, picnicking, jogging, dog walking. Has large kids play area, a café, an Oriental garden, pavilions, benches, a cascading brook, interesting historical features with information boards and a large variety of mature trees. Well maintained and looked after. Definitely recommended.

Gorgeous place to just sit and watch the world go by. Plenty of seating both in the sun and in the shade, all of which is easily accessible for prams and wheelchairs of all sizes. There are lots of beautiful and colour flowers and plants to look at and smell, the scenery is rather good, too!

Beautifully kept gardens and flower beds. Japanese garden was a pleasant surprise and a lovely tea house to have a small bite and something to drink. Saw the odd grey squirrel, who seemed more interested in us than we were of him.

Had a great few hours here. No charge to get in. There is I think 17 acres of garden. This includes the "Japanese garden". You can get snacks, ice-cream (delicious), teas and coffee. The crazy golf is fun, (when isn't it?) and doesn't cost much to play. If you fancy a picnic, it's a beautiful place for one.

Beautiful gardens and lots more. Right on the edge of town. Cafe, playground, paddling pool, tennis courts, picnic areas, it's got the lot and more besides. Well done Harrogate for keeping this place so special. It was still as I remember from my younger days

Such a lovely place to go for a walk, have a cup of coffee and people watch and admire the well groomed grass and beds with some stunning flowers. Or take the kids to the big play area which has an outdoor splash pool. There are so many benches around this place you will always find somewhere to sit, in the sun or the shade. The cafe in the middle has a great selection of light bites, drinks and ice creams. There are toilets on site and dogs are welcome with plenty of bins.

Stunning place in the middle of Harrogate. This was a great place to go for a walk before we stopped for coffee nearby. There’s lots of different things to see within the garden and you can event extend your walk into the woods.

Lovely gardens and parkland to wander about with the different mineral springs dotted around, very interesting and full of history. Great cafe for a cup of tea.

What a beautiful place to visit when you're in Harrogate. There is a lovely round the world tree walk to follow that takes you round helping you to identify certain trees and telling you from where they originated. Highly recommended.

Beautiful place to walk round even in January although a bit cold! Park, crazy golf, skate park, Japanese garden. although mulched over in winter, alsorts here, beautiful place to walk round.

One of the beautiful parks in Yorkshire. Child and disabled friendly with restroom, cafe and play area. The tracks are well maintained for prams and wheels to slide into. The garden is beautifully designed and maintained as per the aesthetic and standards. Neat and tidy. Bins can be located everywhere. The play area has a mini golf tracks, tennis courts etc. There is a separate dog lead free area in the park for the fur babies to roam around freely.

Very nice gardens. I went to see the Japanese garden for inspiration, which I got some ideas from for my own garden at home, but I went around all the gardens and they were lovely. I will come back to see them next year in the summer too.

Two sets of toilets, public ones so not the best but clean and with toilet roll and hand washing facilities. Two places to buy drinks and ice cream. A paddling pool. Huge adventure playground. Crazy golf Golf Tennis courts Flower gardens A boating lake Fountains A Japanese garden. Dogs welcome. A band stand, A duck pond. Trees to climb. Loads and loads of benches , picnic tables and places to lay out your picnic blanket. This park is amazing!!! Parking is tricky watch out for permit holders only, the further away you park the more free parking there is.

Was fortunate enough to visit this Country Park which is run by the National Trust - spent the morning exploring not only the rock formations but also the moss gardens. I visited the park on a Thursday and it wasn't too busy, but left once a coach full of tourists arrived from across the pond. I think that you can spend an entire day at the park only to return the next day and see something new. Will I visit again? Yes. Can I recommend? Yes.

Fantastic place. A great out door experience to just walk round and look at, or to climb over. there were lots of kids having great fun being kids and clambering about, and lots of adults enjoying acting like kids too. If you want to go for the geology, best to arrive early or late to avoid the crowds of families. There is a path around the whole park so you can find quiet areas . There is a coffee kiosk and picnic tables, and historical information in the building. We took our own food and ate on top of a rock with stunning views.

Very interesting place to visit with your kids and furry friends. One for rock climbers, too! The rock formations are impressive. It was fun, and the views were stunning. Be sure to wear shoes with grip because the rocks can be slippery in some areas. L

A family friendly place. I'd suggest not to take stroller/pram if you have a baby, instead use carrier to carry as pavement rocks are uneven for stroller. There's a coffee and sandwich shop as well. No admission fee, but you need to pay for parking. You'll enjoy it for sure. Recommend.

Great place to visit if you want a walk and scramble up rocks. The rock formations look amazing. We've visited before to have a climb, however this time we parked here to walk part of the Yorkshire Heritage Way long distance walk and as such needed to pay for parking for one car for the full day, which was quite expensive at £9. After walking from Thruscross Reservoir to Brimham Rocks I didn't really have to much energy to clamber on the rocks but did visit the trig point behind the visitor centre!

Nice little stroll. Be sure to find the "surprise view", which can be found along the scenic walk on the left, shortly after entering. Stunning bit of history, really interesting. Can easily be walked by all ages. Strollers should be manageable.

Beautiful day out for all the family. There’s plenty of parking. You have to pay at the pay machines which can be cash or online. If you’re part of the National Trust you park for free. There’s wheelchair and pushchair walkways so everyone can enjoy the beauty of Brimham Rocks. Toilets are free, clean and well maintained. There’s a nice picnic area, so carry your own snack. After all the running around and walking the snack is needed. There’s a nice little coffee shop where you can also buy snacks, drinks and ice creams, along with a nice little gift shop that also tells you some of the history of of Brimham Rocks

What a great place to get lost in!! The kids absolutely loved getting back to nature here, plenty of great photo opportunities too! Was a bit chilly as it’s winter but will revisit in the summer with a picnic to enjoy again. Although free to enter you do have to pay for parking (£6.50) which isn’t much for a days stay and all proceeds go towards maintaining the site. There is a coffee shop which did lovely hot chocolate’s with cream and marshmallows, we had 4 plus 4 choc bars and a sandwich for £20 which I few very reasonable in todays climate. Highly recommended for family days out.

The rock formations are amazing. We had a great day out, and we didn't even get around them all. My teenagers (13 and 16) climbed all over and had a great time.

Wonderful place for the family, on site amenities. Food, coffee and toilets all on site. Car park £6 -£9 plenty of staff and friendly people. Get up close with the amazing rock formations from time passed. Climb, but be careful these’s are weathered slippy rocks at times. A great walk out in a rural setting. Highly recommend a visit.

Rocks carved by nature to achieve unique shapes and formation. Ice age, water, volcano and wind have all had a hand in it, I believe. Winding path leading through the rock formations, which you can clamber about. Great for kids and for some wholly unjuatified reasons dogs have to be on lead. Great views over surrounding countryside. Good parking and cafe facilities.

Beautiful place. I have not visited since I was a child. I'm now in my 50s and still had fun climbing and enjoying the views. As did my partner and our youngest, who's 11. Highly recommended. We were also lucky with the weather.

Loved it! Our visit was amazing! A great day had by the whole family. All the different rock formations are fantastic to see and be able to climb and explore, little caves and scurry holes to have fun in and so many great picture opportunities. A real natural beauty that will be somewhere I will always come back to. A bit muddy today; there were a few people braving the muddier trail but a fair amount can be seen from the main path if preferred.

Great place for an easy outdoor activity for adults and kids alike. Beautiful rock formations and with large rocks balancing on others. Plenty to climb on for different challenges and kids will love it here. There is also a well laid out path leading to a coffee shop which makes it suitable for wheelchair users and pushchairs. Parking is also easily available and the information hut is well staffed. Parking is free for trust members (you just scan the QR code on your card and get a free ticket). Even if you have to pay for the parking it's still worth it.

Beautiful spot. Not a hike, a lovely stroll. Done within an hour and that was spending time in the bookshop. Rocks perfect for the kids to explore. Not a 3-4 hour hike, and hour walk.

We were lucky to have lovely weather when we visited here mid October. It is a very well kept place and is full of great rock formations. There are a few good gravelled paths that take you around the rocks and up to the cafe and toilets. The views from the top are well worth the walk up which doesn't take too much effort. It is free entry although you need to pay for parking if you're not a national trust member. Take a picnic and find one of many places to stop and admire the views.

Recommended by friends to visit this place. As we were on holiday in Yorkshire, from the South Coast. A NT site , cost of parking was £6 for 4 hours which you can pay by cash or card. Even on a dull day the views were great. Our kids aged 20,18 & 9 all loved it there . There are toilets and a cafe as well

Good place to visit if you're reasonably fit and National Trust members, otherwise parking is around £6. A large site with plenty of pathways and amazing views. There's toilets and a cafe with takeaway drinks and food just up from the large carpark. We were there around 3 hours. Plenty of dog walkers and children walking the pathways

Castle closed but lovely grounds for walking in and walled gardens for exploring the plants within. Access no problem and tea shop great for a coffee on the way in and lunch on the way out. Lots of places to sit as well for those with tired legs. Lots of intriguing history; lots of bucolic views. Not surprised a wedding wedding was going on as we visited.

Visited the monthly market in the main courtyard of Ripley Castle. Free to enter the grounds that day. A small parking fee applied in nearby field. Easily two hundred visiting cars. The attractive open air market fare had a definite local artisan feel about it & included quick bites to nibble on. The main café was small & very busy due to the crowds visiting that day. Took a long walk around the open grounds & parkland and included the walled garden & my favourite the Greenhouses. One can see how the re-imagining of the estate for public access has created a wonderful amenity for a family day out in the country to view the splendour of parklands in Yorkshire. The weekend we visited was Easter time so there were lots of games for kids including an Easter treasure hunt. Didn't have time to do house tour. The day wrapped with a visit to the local Ripley village homemade ice cream parlour. Yum!

Went classic vintage car/ bike show . Plenty auto jumble stalls . Stalls serving food and hot and cold drinks . Ice cream van . Hundreds vehicles to walk round . Helpful friendly event staff... Then walked up to the castle .

Had an offer on up to end of March, if you bought any hot drink from the takaway next to the castle it was free entry to go round the grounds. Would be lovely later in the year. Beautiful lake, deer park, hothouse, temple, walled garden, various things for children to play on.

A very interesting castle and grounds. We stayed at the Boar’s Head for the night so it was an ideal morning wander. We didn’t go inside, but the gardens, deer park and walled gardens with greenhouse were well maintained and very interesting. Recommend if you’re in the area and it’s a nice day

Have been visiting Ripley Castle for years. It's a very special place, whatever the season, there are beautiful views across the Yorkshire countryside that are well worth the admission price. The staff members are always friendly too ☺️ The castle tea room and recently established coffee house are a good excuse for spending a bit more time here, whilst supporting smaller, local businesses. I always have a nosey in the 'Just Makers' craft / artsy shop too, which offers a very tasteful selection of locally handmade gifts....I never manage to leave empty handed. You can easily spend an afternoon here.

OVERCHARGED made us pay £20 for 4 people when 2 of the 4 were children!!! The house has been apparently close for a year and a half and won’t be open till Easter. The walled and kitchen gardens were very nice and well kept and the walk around the grounds was nice (also was told we would get free entry if we brought a ticket to the harrogate food and drink festival but that was not upheld) pretty but way overpriced for what it is!!!

We often go too the Ivy for Breakfast in Harrogate, and try to find somewhere nearby to visit. We love looking round gardens and castles , and although this isn't a medieval type castle, we thought it was worth a visit. Well it most certainly is. Waze took us there no problem, but there was a little bit of confusion as to where to park. the car park is quite small, but we got parked. It is a pay and display where you have to put your reg number in, but it wasn't expensive. £1.00 gets an hour with the shop and cafe giving you the £1.00 back with a purchase. We headed for the Castle gardens, the actual Castle was shut anyway. We had a lovely walk through some kitchen gardens and took a walk through a pathed wooded area then along the small lake, heading back to the cafe. We missed out a fair bit of the gardens, we only paid for 2 hours and hadn't thought we would stay longer. We had a lovely Coffee and cake, the Cafe was well organized, reasonably priced and the staff were very polite and swerved really quickly. I had to nip out and pay for an extra hour of parking as i really wouldn't chance a ticket. We would definitely return, perhaps with a picnic on a nice sunny day, explore more and would quite like to see inside the Castle.

We celebrated a wedding there and the place was absolutely fabulous. Gorgeous settings, organisation very friendly, good fun. It's quite impressive to use these beautiful rooms to celebrate with friends and it added a magical touch. The village around is also beautiful and I could not recommend enough enjoying the forest nearby for a lovely walk.

A wonderful combination of architecture, garden and parkland to enjoy. Unusual wall trained Ginkgo and some magnificent tree specimens in the garden and parkland. Intriguing glasshouse collection. A tranquil delight on a midweek visit with lovely views across the lake which will improve as Autumn colour begins to show further.

It is a beautiful place for a family day out. Nice garden, tearoom, and shops nearby. And it's free entry for historic house members.

Ripley Castle is just a few miles out of Harrogate. There is a large carpark but I travelled from Harrogate on the 36 bus which is every 30 minutes between Ripon and Leeds; the bus stops just yards from the entrance. Entrance to the gardens and grounds is payable in the coffee shop and just £7 for concessions. There is lots to see if you follow the free map. I walked around the lake through the deer park and upto the walled gardens and beyond. Although the surfaces are pretty flat you really need sensible shoes as it was quite muddy in places. There are picnic tables and children’s play areas.Toilets are just as you one through the Grindhus coffee shop at the entrance to the grounds. Well worth a visit!

Lovely piece of history in Yorkshire. Impressive building and the gardens and grounds are lovely. Small shop and a cafe and they do take away drinks at reasonable prices. We visited in March and it was free entry if we purchased a drink. Plenty of spots to sit and picnic as you walk round the grounds and lovely views. Definitely worth a visit

Ripley Castle is a stunning wedding venue. It looks great in every season, the food is delicious, the staff are knowledgeable & are helpful from beginning to end. The accommodation next door at The Boar’s Head is also perfect. Our wedding day ran smoothly and there’s plenty of room for dancing!

We had a lovely February Sunday at Ripley castle gardens and grounds. Great gardens, well tended and the walk round the deer park was a good length (muddy in places). Nice water features too, plenty of variety here and only £4pp! With £1 off for parking too. Highly recommend.

Great looking castle with beautiful gardens. The formal gardens are well kept and the vegetable patch had a good selection. The park is a very pleasant walk and the lake is beautiful. Entry is via the coffee shop which has a small selection of drinks and cakes but no meals. There is a cafe opposite with a decent selection but very little for vegans or vegetarians. There is a guided tour of the castle available.

Lovely place for a walk. Beautiful architecture on a lakeside setting in extensive grounds. Good coffee shop and tearoom on site.

This is a small museum and doesn't take very long to go through, but it does preserve a very interesting part of history for the area. It tells you about the treatments that people would receive from the mineral wells in Harrogate, and how the high levels of mineral deposits in Harrogate's water put it on the map as a spa town and health center. The woman at the desk was very good and told us lots of information. While the museum could do with some updating and sprucing up, I am glad that we stopped by.

A small, perfectly formed Museum. Worth an hour or more to find out about Harrogate as a fashionable spa town...and the rather weird treatments available to visitors!

Interesting history of Harrogate as a Spa town. The pump room museum has a number of artefacts, posters and other items which give a good understanding of life in those times. Old black and white video of treatments is surprising.

First time visit here. Its a small museum & I think for what on offer a bit over priced to enter.

A lovely look around the history of Harrogate Spa. Small museum & reflected in the entry fee. Very inspiring. Looking back at where Spa & wellness started. Buy a bar of Sulphur soap for beautiful skin.

Amazing place. The building is gorgeous. Lots of information about its use as a healthy bath spa. Doesn't cost much to go in. Will take about an hour to look at it all.

Well worth a visit for the story behind Harrogate as a Spa town. Excellent focus on the hardworking local people who made it all possible. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff 👍

Small, but informative exhibition about Harrogate - how from discovery of first spring in 1571 in this area developed prosperous spa town.

Very interesting history of the Pump Room, the spas and water/heat/electro treatments our ancestors endured.

Two years ago I wanted to visit but it was closed. So I decided to come back because I really wanted to visit this museum. It’s quite small but you learn a lot about the past of Harrogate. It’s very interesting to see how they used to live and how popular was the water of Harrogate. We spent an hour but we were really interested. If not you can clearly visit in less than 10 minutes.

Really nice quaint little museum! Good value for money as a little activity when visiting Harrogate. Really like the focus on the origins of the town as a spa town and how it was supported by the working class. Some cool exhibits like the Fabergé cutler

It was good to read up on the history of the place, it was also disabled friendly as I could walk around without any problems. The lady at the desk was very friendly and informative. Explained a lot about the place and how it work's, she was also a fellow Scot from Aberdeen.

This was very interesting, if you like that sort of thing, and obviously people did in those day's. And in a way some good things did come out of it. Eat well, exercise, take care of your body, relax, massage in all its form's. Now for the place it's self as I said it's interesting, it is disabled friendly so anyone can go see it.

Very informative and interesting as long as you stop and listen to the videos. I really liked the black and white film showing real people receiving treatments! If you want to try the waters 😳 make sure you have a drink handy!! 😅

We visited just after opening on a Sunday and, at first was put off by the size of the building it was housed in, but decided to give it a go anyway. So glad we did because it was crammed full of displays explaining all about the history of Harrogate and the baths. The lady on the till was welcoming and explained things to us. £3.50 per adult. £2.50 for concessions. Pretty sure the opening times were 10am-4pm.

Enjoyable and well priced. The staff are mostly helpful. Bought a beautiful print out of the shop section. The stained glass window was my personal highlight

We managed to book in last minute and what a lovely experience we had! Would highly recommend for any age. Have a cuddle and one on one with your llama over 3 hours. Jess (tour lady) was very knowledgeable and you can tell she has a pure passion for what she does. With over 90 llamas and she knew everyone’s name. Not just a one time experience, will be going back !

Really enjoyed our time at Nidderdale for the scenic llama trek. Staff were lovely and even had gluten free cakes and flapjacks for afterwards with our drinks. You need to book in advance.

I will start by saying I was slightly apprehensive about this before, but I can say this is an amazing experience! Firstly finding the place. I initially drive past it a few times before I used the what3words location. I would advise you use it as it took me straight to it! The post code will only get you to the village and by that point you have too far. Our trek guide (unfortunately I didn't catch her name) was amazing. She spent about half an hour in the barn explaining all about the alpacas and llamas, we got to meet all the animals and they really did have completely different personalities. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and answered any question that was asked. Personally I found Tim to be the funniest one. He kept trying to break out of the pens. After meeting all the animals we were paired with our animals for the walking part of the experience. Please Note: I did read the email about wearing boots and I did take what I believed to be acceptable shoes, oh how wrong would I have been. Lucky for me they have 'Rent-a-wellies'! At £2, they are a bargain and well worth while, take it from me! I was lucky enough to be paired with Rohan. He was so easy to handle for a novice. He is an amazing animal so calm and caring. I am sure he was sussing me out initially, but by the end of the walk he was cuddling up to me (which was very cute). I would highly recommend this experience to anyone, young or old and anything in-between. You will get the chance to get up close and personal with these majestic animals and have a life changing experience. Thank you Suzanne and team for a wonderful experience.

A must do activity!! We loved it from start to finish , the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable, and we even had the lady who owns it on our trek and she was lovely too. The llamas were very cute and affectionate and every single one had its own personality. Will definitely be back to do it again. We didn't want to leave when the trek finished or say bye to our llamas Mike and Lloyd. But we did purchase key rings with them on to remember our experience. To top it off the weather was lovely 🦙🌞 Emily and claire

Such a great day, Jess who looked after us pn the trek was fab and shared lots of info about Llamas and Alpacas, and all about the ones they have on the farm. A great location, beautiful scenery and the facilities were clean and tidy, perfect :)

Amazing afternoon spent at Nidderdale Llamas, thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Kevin and Neville and the rest of the boys. We had the best time walking around (even in the rain)! Would recommend to anyone!! Thank you for an enjoyable experiance!

As a group we did the farm experience and shared a llama between two. The staff were fantastic, knew their stuff and taught us loads about llamas and alpacas! They matched us up with a suitable llama (cheeky, calm, naughty you name it they had it). The trek was great and the llamas were really well trained. Great credit to the company and would 100% recommend it to anyone

What a fantastic experience. We were so well looked after, the team and Lamas🦙😆 are so engaging. Highly recommend the half day trek. We learned a lot too about these amazing animals. It is obvious they are so well looked after and loved.

Me and my wife had a great day with Trevor and Tony, our Llamas. The whole experience was fantastic. Our two guides were brilliant, very knowledgeable and passionate about the animals and made our day totally memorable.

What an experience. This was by far one of the best days out. Meeting the llamas and alpacas was great fun, each has their own personality. The staff there are knowledgeable and fun and clearly working in jobs they love and it's clear to see why. My children 11+12 had a fantastic day, it's amazing how quickly these animals steal the hearts of everyone who participated, myself included. We did the scenic farm trek around 3 hours in total. Overall this was one of our more expensive days out this summer but it was absolutely worth every penny. Highly highly recommend. I went as a spectator as my daughter is usually a little shy/nervous but the staff gave her so much confidence with the instructions and reassurance, she was absolutely fine and really enjoyed it

Place is really nice, the llamas are awesome it was a treat for my girlfriend but it was pricey for what it was. Staff were nice and friendly if they lowered the price for return visits I'd likely go again but not at the full price.

We were treated to the Christmas cuddles experience and it really made our Christmas Eve. The llamas were great, we learnt a lot about them from very informative staff. Would highly recommend it and hope to return for a trek in the near future.

Wow what an amazing experience!!! The llama trek was absolutely fantastic, the staff are so informative and friendly! I had Polly who was a gem 😍 I can’t wait to go back and do another trek!

Just wonderful. We've done a llama walk here before but this one was even better. The lady who hosted our group was very knowledgeable and introduced us to the different types of llama before matching our personalities to a llama! The walk is across country and with some slopes so be prepared.

Went with our two children, aged 9 and 7. They were a bit apprehensive at first, especially our boy, but we were introduced to the llamas and alpacas very gently and calmly, and soon enough and concerns were gone. A matchmaking process means that you are paired with a llama or alpaca to suit you, and we asked for less boisterous animals for our walk and it was a lovely experience in beautiful surroundings. By the end the kids had bonded with their animals and were confident enough to put their arms around them for photos. Fabulous experience and great memories for the kids and adults alike.

What a fantastic afternoon we had meeting the llamas and alpacas! It was a wonderful experience, made more so by the knowledge and enthusiasm of our guide Jess who was so dedicated in her role. It was clear how much she really loved and cared for the animals. We were celebrating our Ruby anniversary and the whole experience made it a very special day. We had Rohan the llama (very affectionate and gorgeous) and Alan the alpaca (cute and cheeky). Both were a total joy to take for a walk in the beautiful countryside. We were joined by Charlotte on the walk who like Jess totally dedicated and enthusiastic. It is certainly an experience to remember and one we would like to repeat but do a longer trek next time! We cannot recommend this experience enough. Thank you all and of course Rohan and Alan for being so good and adorable.

We did the junior trek which was great. Charlotte was very informative about both alpacas and llamas. A very hands on experience. Would definitely do again.
