The Best Things
  • school (ironic)
  • The top end of Harrogate is lovely...the Valley Gardens and the Pinewoods are great for walking and fresh air...
  • rudy of course its worth going there just to see him. he gave me a tub of marmalade free once. tasted nice...
  • skating mountain boarding
  • Its a place where you can have a quiet life and easily move to places where life is less quiet.
  • the alright skatespots
  • The stray in summer.
  • the stray nd valley gardens
  • The very sexy ladies. Especially on a nice summers eve, if you get what i mean!
  • Excellent for egging
  • Harrogate is a good town for families or older people. It's got some quite close-knit communities and good schools. It's also quite a pretty town in Summer, especially round the Valley Gardens (by day anyway!!). There are some great walks round the Nidd Gorge and some lovely pubs on the outskirts of the town.
  • Valley Gardens in the summer
  • close to leeds...kinda
  • lived here all my life, n still love it
  • around the cenotaph when its really sunny, its always busy with people sunbathing, its also funny if a bird poos on all of those people...
  • the thing i like most about harrogate is that you will find so many different types of people getting along (most of the time!). harrogate is generally a really nice medium sized town. it has a lot of bars and clubs for its size, but that goes with the amount of students that call it home, the 'young professionals' and the conference center brings a lot of business people out on a night too. on a night you might walk into any bar in the center of town and find a healthy mix of all three, and others, all intent on having a good time, regardless of what 'social set' they normally belong to.
  • There are loads of great looking girls in harrogate!
  • Summer time, so much grass to sit on you can sit in the middle of the stray away from everyone.
  • robert purdy
  • harrogate is very nice, to visit, i imagine.
  • Jimmys. People having lots of money and nice cars. Not much trouble.
  • The Stray-remember this when you leave you wont find anything like it anywhere else
  • The Valley Gardens - the perfect place to spend a Saturday morning (but not in the rain) Loads of cafe's Prettiness
  • Has to be Genny H. Gorgeous top over forty totty!
  • sunbathing in the valley gardens
  • I managed to leave there about two years ago.
  • There's a couple of pubs where the ale's cheap, I suppose.
  • Harrogate is just so *nice* that even when it rains, it rains nicely. Stray FM - the radio station - has competitions where you can win things like book tokens, its really local and friendly - the DJs look out the window and comment on the people waiting at the traffic lights on Station Parade. The Stray itself is great just because of its cool name - its a big green park all round 2 sides of the town centre
