The settlement of Harringworth is located in the English county of Northamptonshire and is a charming little village to stay in with friends and family on a self-catering holiday. With only a couple of hundred residents living in Harringworth, you can soak up the serene and quiet atmosphere of the village, exploring the incredible backdrops and surroundings that can be found here, going on long country walks or hiring a bicycle and cycling through the hills and fields of this part of Northamptonshire.
Lying in a picturesque area on the banks of the River Welland, Harringworth is home to the 16th century coaching inn, now a cosy pub and restaurant, The White Swan, plus there are a couple of village shops and plenty of self-catering cottages in and around the area available to rent. Staying in one of these accommodations is the best way to see Harringworth and the surrounding settlements, as you can relax and unwind in your cottage that will come to feel like a second home, and you can eat your own food and catch your favourite programme on the TV in the evenings after a day of exploring, where you can sit with your loved ones and reflect on your day.
For day trips to larger towns in Northamptonshire from Harringworth, you could visit Corby, only 7 miles away, or the delightful Market Harborough, 17 miles away. This is a great way to add variation to your holiday and see different parts of the county.
