  • Delightful cottage in a quiet corner of Skipton, North Yorkshire
  • Comfortable accommodation and small garden, suitable for a family break
  • Well placed for shops and eateries, as well as the Yorkshire Dales National Park

Property code: OC-DS115

An attractive, end-of-terrace cottage, with a pretty garden, this holiday home is set in a tranquil corner of Skipton. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom bolthole is 0.5 miles from the centre of the market town, with its independent shops, cafes and restaurants. Visit the medieval castle, see the ruined priory and walk down the cobbled high street. Plan trips into the Yorkshire Dales, 2 miles away, where you can pick up any number of footpaths. Spend time in Malham, 11 miles away and in the heart of the national park, where you can visit the impressive tarn and curved limestone cove. Take in Gordale Scar, a great ravine in the landscape, 12 miles from the cottage, during your Yorkshire break.

Open the front door to the cottage and step straight into the lounge. This comfortable room is a great place to spend evenings together, playing games or watching TV. Adjoining the lounge is a conservatory, where members of your party might like to steal a few minutes of quiet time with a book perhaps. Amble on through to the kitchen/diner when mealtimes beckon to find this excellent space has been equipped with everything you might need to help you prepare meals with your own ingredients during your stay. At the end of each exciting day, climb the stairs to a double bedroom, which has an en-suite shower room, or the cosy twin room. The family bathroom is also at this level.

Step out from the conservatory to sit out in the small courtyard garden, with its cobbles and grassy area. Have coffee in the sunshine at the table out here.

Very quiet location within 15 mins walk to High Street, Castle and Canalside. On the southside of The Dales it is ideally situated for a short drive to such treasures as Malham Cove and Bolton Abbey. The property is clean and comfortable with on street parking right outside.

Lovely cottage. Very well located within easy reach of the town centre. Everything we needed seemed to be provided. Beds are comfortable as are the sofas. Television is an "older" smart TV but perfectly adequate for our requirements. There are steps in the garden that less able people might struggle with. Traffic cones were supplied for parking outRead moreside the cottage. We used them but probably weren't necessary as there always seemed to be spaces available nearby. The owner is very friendly and accommodating and lives nearby for any problems that may be experienced. Thoroughly enjoyed our week in Skipton even though the weather was grim some days. Recommended cottage. We will be back I'm sure. Hide

Excellent cottage. The decor is very moden and has very comfortable beds and sofas. It is a short stroll to the centre of town but an even shorter drive for those less able guests. We had a lovely time and will definitely be back soon.

I love interior decorating so really appreciated the imaginative way that the place was designed. Besides being attractive it was highly functional. The place was quite convenient for the busses and there was a local chippy (tried - good) and Indian takeaway (maybe next time). The kitchen (which included an electric oven and a very powerful inductiRead moreon hob) and bathrooms were of a high standard. The place was very quite at night time but the very centre of Skipton was only a few streets away. The acid test is that we would definitely be happy to stay there a second time. Hide
