The Spirit of Harrogate

My blog for Perceptive Travel about a visit to The Spirit of Harrogate in the spa town of Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England.

I write two travel blogs a month for Perceptive Travel, and they often involve spirits… or beer, or wine. Sometimes even travel! Here’s the latest from a visit I made to the spa town of Harrogate in England, North Yorkshire, and to a new attraction there: The Spirit of Harrogate.

And what is the spirit of Harrogate? Find out by reading the blog at:
