Sleeping up to six guests, this three-bedroom hideaway set on one of Skipton’s historic cobbled streets as featured in the TV show All Creatures Great and Small, makes the ideal base for families, couples and walkers exploring the Yorkshire Dales. Skipton Castle and Skipton Woods are both less than a five-minute walk away (0.2 miles). Known as the “Gateway to the Dales,” Skipton boasts an award-winning High Street, a popular open-air market, and a great selection of independent shops, pubs, cafés, and restaurants. You can also enjoy a stroll along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. Nearby attractions include the Embsay & Bolton Abbey Steam Railway, while outdoor enthusiasts can explore Malham Cove (11 miles), Gordale Scar, and Janet’s Foss waterfall. Bolton Abbey (6.5 miles) offers scenic riverside walks and historic ruins. Haworth, famous for its links to the Brontë sisters and Wuthering Heights, is also just a short drive away.
Follow the road down from the parking area to enter the cottage. On entry, find space in the porch to kick off your walking boots and hang coats. Be greeted by the property’s social heart – the charming open-plan living space. This welcoming room combines a well-appointed kitchen with a restful lounge and dining table, offering the perfect spot to unwind between your days of adventure. Find everything needed in the kitchen for cooking up your Yorkshire feasts. After each meal, head over to the lounge to sink into the soft seating and flick on the Smart TV. At the end of each day away, climb the cottage stairs to the first floor and take your pick from three lovely bedrooms: two double rooms and a bunk bedroom perfect for little ones. The two double rooms boast Smart TVs for lazy mornings in bed, while all three bedrooms are served by the family bathroom with a shower over the bath.
Outside, at the front of the cottage, awaits a small patio space with bench seating. This is the perfect spot for those peaceful morning coffees and evening tipples. You’ll also find private parking for two cars, making your arrival and Yorkshire day trips a breeze.
