About this property

A stone-built, semi-detached barn conversion, located on a working livestock farm on the outskirts of the ever-popular market town of Skipton. Well known as 'The Gateway to the Dales', Skipton has a bustling high street, which has won an award in 2008 for being the best shopping street in Britain and Ireland. Visitors will enjoy the lovely surroundings, the beautiful views across the Aire Valley and the delightful canalside walk into the town centre. This Skipton holiday home boasts an unusual upside down layout with the sitting room located on the first floor, taking full advantage of the delightful views. There is a cosy sitting room with woodburning stove, a modern kitchen diner and three lovely bedrooms. Outside is a garden with patio area, where you can relax and plan your itinerary for the next day, whether it be visiting the nearby swimming pool, golf course, tennis courts or the excellent cycling routes in the area. Note: This property is next to Refs. 913341, 913342 and 913346, together they sleep 20.

Skipton is known as The Gateway to the Dales. The Lake District and the West Coast are also within easy driving distance. The town is home to a high street with lively market, many tea rooms and an ancient castle. Canal trips can be enjoyed or visit Embsay Steam Railway one mile away.

    1 mile walk down a flat well maintained canal tow path ito skipton. All amenities you need and the beds are big and very comfortable. Xx

    The only fault was the cold bathrooms, although it was minus 3 some nights. The towel rails aren't really adequate to keep the rooms warm in those temperatures which made using the showers a very quick exercise! Have to say that Mrs Marshall quickly altered the start times for the rails, which helped. With having two dogs, it would have been nice if they could have roamed the garden, unattended, but couldn't because it's not fenced off securely and a gate would be also be needed. Just an observation. Overall a very pleasant experience.

    Warm, cosy and quirky. Had everything you could need. Short lovely walk along the canal, from the door into Skipton
