Floral delights in Ilkley are not confined to the public displays in the town centre. On the road up to the moor, there are some beautiful old houses (my dream homes). I spotted this lovely arch of wisteria and honeysuckle over a door. These are spacious, double-fronted houses dating back to the early 1800s.
This one is currently for sale - a six bedroomed, stone-built terraced house... a snip at £675,000 (€814,000)! If you can't afford that but want the experience, The Rombalds Hotel is in the same terrace, so you could perhaps have a weekend break there instead.
Delicious!!
ReplyDeleteIt seems that we have the same kind of dreams about houses..and the same kind of problems to pay for one!!:)
