Set in the heart of Skipton with lots of fun things to find and discover - making an ideal retreat for a small family or couple.

Superbly located in the centre of Skipton, less than a minute's walk from Skipton's historic high street where you'll find a fine range of old and new pubs, restaurants, shops and the market which is on four times a week. Well known as The Gateway to the Dales, Skipton has a medieval castle, canal boat trips to be enjoyed, a swimming pool, golf course, excellent cycling routes, tennis courts and hundreds of walks including easy rambles and challenging fell walks within close proximity of the cottage. The peaceful village of Grassington under ten miles away and slightly further afield the Three Peaks can be found within an hour’s drive. Other delights of the area include the fabulous Bolton Abbey, the elegant spa town of Harrogate and Ilkley Moor. A wonderful base for a memorable break in the Yorkshire Dales.

Featuring an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with comfy sofas and a TV/DVD in the lounge area, just the place to unwind after a long day exploring the Dales. The kitchen area is well-equipped with everything you need to rustle up a meal with electric oven and gas hob, fridge, microwave and washer/dryer. Head up the stairs to the first floor and you'll find a shower room with WC, and two bedrooms, a double with TV and a single with quality bedding and soft furnishings to ensure you're warm and cosy here. A wonderful base for a memorable break in the Yorkshire Dales.

It's a comfortable centrally located cottage with parking space and within easy walking distance of many shops, pubs and restaurants and Skipton Castle. There's a nice little cinema a few minutes' walk away and the railway station is walkable too.

A comfortable cottage in a very convenient spot for Skipton High Street and for picking up a very easy road network to other places. Sadly there is no outside garden space which we did find limiting.

Apart from the above we cannot recommend the cottage highly enough. It was exactly the right size for us, the location perfect for what we wanted to do and I think it was the best one for equipment we have ever visited As I said in the guest book it was a delight to come back to as it was so cool after being out in the heat all day. Advise guests tRead moreo take care with the kitchen and bathroom taps as the kitchen one can give you a soaking, and make sure you fully turn off the bathroom hot one. Hide

The location of the cottage is excellent, between the High St and the canal. It is comfortable and generally clean. The decorations in the bathroom should be a higher standard and it would have been nice if the battery candles in the mock fireplace had worked.

This is a very comfortable cottage, with lovely beds and a fabulous shower. In a great position near the High Street, but it's not noisy. We slept very well. Please note that the second bed isn't a 'small double', it's a single bed. The kitchen is well stocked, with plenty of cleaning materials so you don't need to bring anything e.g. hand wash, faRead moreiry liquid, bin bags. The bathroom had a box full of small shampoos etc. Very useful. Handy parking space very close. Recommend highly! Hide
