Settle in for a comfortable stay at this welcoming cottage on the edge of the Yorkshire market town of Skipton.

Wander inside to find airy, sunny accommodation, with ample space for everyone to spread out and enjoy some quality time together. Kick back and relax in the lounge, where you can watch TV or a DVD. Head through to the kitchen/diner to prepare delicious meals with the array of fresh produce you have bought at the market in Skipton. Choose whether to dine in here or out in the garden. Have coffee in the conservatory after dinner and perhaps read your book for a spell. When bedtime beckons, head up to the first floor of the cottage to treat yourself to a good night’s sleep in either the king-size or the twin bedroom. The king-size bedroom has an en-suite shower room and there is also a family bathroom up here. Watch your pet play on the grass in the small garden as you sip a glass of wine out in the fresh air on summer evenings. Parking is on the street, subject to availability.

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
