Well placed for visiting all that the Dales has to offer, the town of Skipton is also close to York, the Lake District and the West Coast. This lovely market town has plenty to offer visitors and boasts an ancient castle open to the public, a beautiful old parish church and a colourful market occupying the cobbled setts on either side of the high street. Visitors can enjoy a canal trip on a traditional barge or visit the Embsay Steam Railway, which offers regular steam train excursions throughout the weekend and is just a mile away.

  • Carla

    Perfect location close to the centre of Skipton with Tesco a 2 min walk away and loads of good pubs and the castle nearby” “ a wonderfully set up and equipped house in a fantastic location right between a supermarket and the pub filled town centre" “ Fantastic house, clean & well equipped, in a great location, comfy beds, plenty of seating and a kitchen to make most cooks jealous!” "A lovely, cosy house - perfect for groups looking for sociable spaces. Good layout and well equipped. Easy walking distance to town and very close to supermarket. Lots of steps/stairs and no designated parking so might not be suitable for anyone with reduced mobility but as long as that's not an issue, I would definitely recommend this house."

  • Jacqui

    very spacious property. It was warm, clean well equipped and we enjoyed our stay and will use it again

  • Tamsin

    Perfectly convenient to get around Skipton easily. Clean and tidy with plenty of equipment in the kitchen. We enjoyed the courtyard garden. It is a little tired and there is a bit of road noise but absolutely nothing to complain about.
