Leeds Bradford → Harrogate: key facts

Getting from Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA) to Harrogate takes about 25 min by car on an empty road (25–35 min in heavy traffic) over 20 km via A658 and A61. Our private transfer costs €65 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €95 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.

On arrival: The driver waits in the arrivals area of the airport's single terminal, after baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name; the car is parked in the Pick Up & Drop Off car park, about a one-minute walk from the terminal. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.

Harrogate is about 20 km north of the airport, a drive of around 25 minutes. The road heads north on the A658, crossing the River Wharfe at Pool and climbing through farmland before joining the A61 on the southern edge of the town. It is a rural route with few junctions, but traffic builds on the A61 approach at weekday rush hours and during large events at the Harrogate Convention Centre and the Great Yorkshire Showground in summer.

Harrogate is a spa town built around the Stray, a wide area of open grassland that wraps around the southern side of the centre. The Royal Pump Room, the Valley Gardens and the Montpellier Quarter with its independent shops lie on the western side, while the bus and railway stations and the Victoria shopping area are in the middle of town. The Harrogate Convention Centre stands a short walk north of the Royal Pump Room. RHS Garden Harlow Carr is on the western outskirts, and Knaresborough is about 6 km to the east.

Public transport instead: Transdev (FLYER) bus FLYER A2 from Leeds Bradford Airport bus stops at the terminal to Harrogate, hourly through the day, seven days a week.
