A spectacular contemporary home built in the former Hawksworth Moor Reservoir, on the edge of Ilkley Moor.
Location
The nearby spa town of Ilkley is renowned for its superb range of retail and culinary service, as well as numerous sports clubs, including golf, rugby, tennis and squash. There is also a direct train service to Leeds and from there to London Kings Cross. Leeds Bradford Airport is about six miles away.
The picturesque town of Ilkley (about four miles) is situated in the Wharfe Valley, at the southern end of the Yorkshire Dales. The former spa town rose to fame in the nineteenth century when thousands visited for the fresh invigorating air and first class hotels. The town may no longer be a premier health resort but it is still renowned for its fresh air, moorland and beautiful countryside with a selection of quality accommodation.
The town is famous for its moor and you'll find fantastic countryside and walks for all abilities on your doorstep. The town is also home to one of the largest cycling clubs in the country. There are excellent restaurants and independent shops selling everything from gifts to vintage clothes and books. Enjoy afternoon tea at the famous Bettys Cafe and Tea Rooms or enjoy one of the many events which take place throughout the year, such as Ilkley Literature Festival, Ilkley Summer Festival and Real Food Ilkley Markets.
Please note all distances are approximate.
