Robert greeted us at the door and was friendly. The room we were shown to was perfect, bed was comfortable and amenities clean and tidy. The location of Kirkgate House was great, in the middle of the town with bars and restaurants within a couple minutes walk. Would recommend and if we visit Knaresborough again, definitely would stay.

Enjoyable stay, highly recommend

Very clean and comfortable accommodation in this well run B&B right in the town centre, but on a quiet street. We were made to feel very welcome and couldn't think of a single criticism. The breakfast was excellent too and plenty of choice.

Ideally placed in the centre of Knaresborough, we were welcomed warmly. The room was lovely with a generous bathroom attached. Plenty of teabags, coffee and hot chocolate sachets and fresh milk was kept in a small fridge. The chocolate was a nice touch alongside the complementary biscuits. It was very quiet and the breakfast was delicious. We will certainly visit again.

Very welcoming and comfortable abode. Location is perfect for town centre. Car park is close by but you have to pay for that so bring change for the meter. The cooked breakfast is a must..... well recommended.
