About this property

A charming, stone-built, end terrace cottage, just a short stroll from Skipton's award-winning high street. This cottage is one of the oldest buildings in the town, part of the original Coaching House that served the old market town.

Full of character and charm it seamlessly combines many original features, such as exposed stonework and traditional beams with contemporary furnishings providing a first-class holiday cottage ideal for a romantic break.

Renovated to a high standard, this lovely cottage features a delightful sitting room with a feature fireplace and cosy woodburning stove, exposed beams and contemporary styling which leads to a well-laid out kitchen featuring an exposed stone wall, a stable door and individual styling.

Upstairs, the bedroom features a double bed and an adjacent spacious bathroom with a freestanding bath and separate shower, providing an ideal place to relax and unwind after a day exploring this wonderful area.

Situated slightly back behind an interesting small parade of shops including a specialist coffee roaster and tea merchant, a beauty salon and a newsagents/general store.

Arguably, it is possible to enjoy a fine cup of coffee whilst having your nails done and reading the newspaper, all without taking your slippers off!

It provides an excellent base to enjoy the many delights of the famous town, recently voted by the Sunday Times as The Best Place To Live In Great Britain.

Craven Leisure Centre featuring two pools, pitch and putt and tennis courts in 20 acres of parkland and famous farm shop and restaurant serving fresh local groceries, ales and fine wine are just a few mins up the road.

A short stroll also takes guests to the Medieval Castle, one of the oldest in the country, the lively canal basin, Skipton woods, the fabulous four-day market set out down the entire length of the main high street and the many excellent pubs, restaurants and cafes of Sheep Town.

Further afield, enjoy moorland walks at Bolton Abbey, the local farmers' markets at Grassington, Settle’s famous cheese dairy and artisan shops or visit elegant Harrogate or picturesque Kirkby Lonsdale, all within easy reach of this Skipton cottage.

An ideal place to get away from it all, relax and enjoy this superb location

The market town of Skipton, known as the The Gateway to the Dales offers canal trips, steam railway rides, golf, restaurants, shops and tea rooms. The Yorkshire Dales National Park and the Bronte Country are close by and are well worth a visit.

    We were very pleased will all the extra little touches and amenities, you could tell a lot of thought had been put in to making the place homey. It was very cosy and felt like a home away from home. We loved sitting by the fire and the bed was very comfy. We were close enough to everything we needed. We would definitely come again and recommend to anyone.

  • Gail

    Perfect for a couple or solo visitor. Extremely well equipped, comfortable and friendly! The property is very convenient for the town centre where there are plenty of good cafés and restaurants. Also within walking distance of the train and bus station if travelling by public transport. Loved it!

    Free parking available just round the corner in the next side street (neighbours and shop use the limited outside parking). Newsagents for last minute essentials and a coffee shop next to the cottage on the main road which although busy at times did not disturb us. Appreciated little extras left by the owners such as oil, ketchup and spices which we were allowed to use. The most up to date and extensive information I have ever seen (on the cottage, attractions, eating places etc)... put together by the owners.
