Property code: OC-DS115

An attractive, end-of-terrace cottage, with a pretty garden, this holiday home is set in a tranquil corner of Skipton. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom bolthole is 0.5 miles from the centre of the market town, with its independent shops, cafes and restaurants. Visit the medieval castle, see the ruined priory and walk down the cobbled high street. Plan trips into the Yorkshire Dales, 2 miles away, where you can pick up any number of footpaths. Spend time in Malham, 11 miles away and in the heart of the national park, where you can visit the impressive tarn and curved limestone cove. Take in Gordale Scar, a great ravine in the landscape, 12 miles from the cottage, during your Yorkshire break.

Open the front door to the cottage and step straight into the lounge. This comfortable room is a great place to spend evenings together, playing games or watching TV. Adjoining the lounge is a conservatory, where members of your party might like to steal a few minutes of quiet time with a book perhaps. Amble on through to the kitchen/diner when mealtimes beckon to find this excellent space has been equipped with everything you might need to help you prepare meals with your own ingredients during your stay. At the end of each exciting day, climb the stairs to a double bedroom, which has an en-suite shower room, or the cosy twin room. The family bathroom is also at this level.

Step out from the conservatory to sit out in the small courtyard garden, with its cobbles and grassy area. Have coffee in the sunshine at the table out here.

Skipton is a lovely town, with plenty of good places to eat and drink (jam session alternate Sundays at The Boathouse is a really good standard, and home made food at The Albion Inn good value).

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

A lovely modern improved interior at this cottage. Bathrooms were great, the conservatory is a great addition to the property. Very quiet area, within easy walking distance to Skipton town centre. Would highly recommend, short distance to local shops, Fish & Chip shop, lovely Bakery nearby, Spar mini supermarket.

We , a family of 4 (parents and 2 teenagers) enjoyed a lot our stay. The house is well situated, a 10 minutes from the center of Skipton (the street is getting down so it's a bit harder to climb it in the way back). It's in the end of the street, the railstation is just behind but it's really not a problem, very few trains and not noisy. The house Read moregave us a global impression of welcoming and sweetness. It's not a big house but every thing is here. The veranda is a plus. It was clean althought I must add it didn't match the standard we had before when booking with "hollidaycottages" in every details. Hide

This holiday cottage is in a great location to walk into Skipton and as a base for exploring further afield. It was very quiet and parking was never a problem. The owner who lives next door was very welcoming and provided milk and biscuits for our arrival. The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed.

It's perfect as a base for exploring the Dales and is also just a few minutes walk into Skipton town centre, which is great for places to eat if cooking on holiday is not your thing! The property itself is in a quiet street, has a lovely conservatory (cool for breakfast), large kitchen and two bathrooms!
