Discover the magic of Skipton, one of Yorkshire’s much-loved market towns, on your romantic retreat to this one-bedroom apartment. Sleeping two guests, and also happy to accommodate one four-legged friend, this duplex apartment could be perfect for anyone seeking to stay on the fringes of the fabulous Yorkshire Dales National Park.

From here, stroll out to restaurants, cafes and pubs to enjoy tasty meals cooked with fresh Yorkshire produce, browse the many interesting independent shops of Skipton and wander around its colourful market. Head just 11 miles into the Dales to Malham, with its famous Cove and Tarn and to other beauty spots, such as Gordale Scar.

Let yourselves into this bright apartment to discover a modern finish and accommodation that has been designed with your comfort in mind. Find an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where you and your loved one can enjoy quality time together after your adventures in the great outdoors. Watch films together on the Sky Q TV, cook and prepare delicious treats in the kitchen area on those occasions you don’t feel like dining out and find you have a dishwasher so neither of you has to wash up.

Enjoy romantic meals at the table, then later on, make your way through to your king-size bedroom, which is also equipped with Sky Q TV too. In the morning, have a shower or bath in the apartment’s bathroom before planning the day ahead. Find you also have a utility room, with a washer/dryer, on the lower ground floor of this holiday home.

The historic town of Skipton offers a host of attractions including a castle. There are lots of options for eating out here and plenty of shops, galleries and boutiques for those who love to shop. Other nearby attractions include the Kilnsey Trout Farm, 11 miles away, and horse riding at Coniston, 7 miles from the property.

The magnificent Yorkshire Dales begin less than 1 mile from Skipton. And, as you would expect, the surrounding countryside here is simply magnificent, perfect if you want to strike out from the apartment in your walking boots.

This area is a true walker’s paradise but if you are more of a roamer than a rambler, try a stroll around the grounds of nearby Bolton Abbey, 6.5 miles away. These gorgeous ruins provide the backdrop to a particularly beautiful part of the Dales and are well worth a visit.

Settle, 15 miles from Skipton, is another destination that is not to be missed. This well-loved, market town is home to lots of cafes, restaurants, pubs and shops. There’s also a market held in the town every Tuesday – the perfect place to pick up everything from flowers to fresh produce for dinner. If real ale is your tipple, then you will find plenty of pubs serving Yorkshire brews close by.

Just outside the town, you can hop on the Settle to Carlisle railway, one of the most scenic routes in the UK which will take you over the well-known Ribblehead Viaduct, 12 miles from Settle.
