Lovely, comfortable, spacious cottage, only 10-15 minutes from the canal and the shops. Loads of eateries within walking distance.The bedroom and bathroom are huge and the bed was very comfortable.

Beautiful cottage with private parking as a bonus. Immaculate furnishings, spotlessly clean and well equipped. Very comfortable bed.15 minute walk into Skipton and a lovely (but a bit longer) walk through the park across the road and along the canal side. Fabulous farm shop up the road, wish we'd found it sooner.The only negative is that for a 1 bedroom property I do think it is overpriced. However, if you do book this property you will not be disappointed.
