This is a well equipped and comfortable accommodation just 10 mins walk from Skipton centre and perfectly placed by the road network to take you in any direction. There is also an excellent farm shop at the top of the road stocking fresh sandwiches should you wish to pre plan lunch before any road trip. In the Guest Book some people had stayed there 5 x times and I can understand why!
