    Hi once more and thank you from down under 🦘🇦🇺. It’s been a total joy touring this lovely place with you. We discovered it by chance on a UK trip some years ago and now hold it as one of our all time gems. Staying in a B&B right on Waterside, we managed a row on the river on a beautiful sunny day, as the church bells were ringing out, one of many fond memories of this splendid town.

    Brings back memories. It’s a lovely town. As a very small boy in the early 1960s my older sister took me out on one of the hire boats. I returned to Knaresborough for a while in the late 80s and lived in the gatehouse of Mother Shipton’s Cave and the Long Walk.

    Knaresborough! Wow! How do y'all keep finding these beautiful towns? The place is gorgeous, simply gorgeous! It bestows an aura that is totally loyal, yet at the same time, passionately intriguing, peaceful and serene, and solidly romantic and adoring. I hope this makes sense? I thoroughly enjoyed this video. There's something about Knaresborough that is so very alluring and enchanting in a very gentle, kind and righteous way. Wow!

    Hi Simon and Will! Knaresborough is a pretty town indeed. The River Nidd sounds like the name of a fairytale. Maison Parfaite invited you to explore here as well. How wonderful! I took quite a few screen shots. I especially loved the view of the viaduct from above and the old castle mill converted dwellings by the water. What I’d give to have a peek inside. Your videos are always such a joy to watch. Thanks again to you both. Stay well. ❤
