Seamlessly blending traditional charm with modern updates, this lovely family-friendly cottage is a great option for a holiday in the Yorkshire Dales. The market town of Skipton (less than a mile away) is fantastic for all ages with its impressive castle, whimsical woodland and array of opportunities to shop and eat.

Welcoming you into the property is a spacious hall leading through to the open-plan living space. The lounge area is cosy with two stylish sofas and a charming feature fireplace for relaxing evenings spent with your loved ones. Through a large archway is the dining area, with a table seating six and beautiful bookshelves set into arched alcoves and filled with interesting reads to enjoy during your stay. Next up is the kitchen, a serene space with cool tones, clever storage and everything you could need to cook meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Upstairs are three tastefully decorated bedrooms including a king-size bed, a double bed and a single bed ensuring plenty of flexibility for families or friends. Completing the floor is the modern bathroom with a bathtub and overhead rainfall shower offering an idyllic way to start or end the day. At both the front and back of the property are paved courtyard areas for a taste of fresh air.

Avid walkers will be in heaven with the picturesque pathways in the area, including the circular trail at Silsden Moor (6 miles). This 12-mile trek takes you through a range of terrains with the opportunity to see cows and calves, heather-covered hills and the sparkling reservoir of Chelker. Set 19 miles away is the dramatic Catrigg Force waterfall, a hidden beauty set within a secluded gorge surrounded by woodland where you can sit to sip a flask of tea next to the calming sounds of the cascading water.

Lovely traditional two up two down house. Slightly uphill walk to town centre. Very quiet street. Easy parking on road plus rather tight dedicated spot in the rear. The house has everything that you might need. Highly recommended.

A very comfortable, well equipped and immaculate cottage in the centre of Skipton, but in a quiet location. We appreciated the the little box of provisions on our arrival. Good car parking and in walking distance of local convenience stores. We certainly would have no hesitation returning sometime in the future. Thoroughly recommended
