2 Bedroom Cottage in Skipton

Located close to the canal basin, this stylish property has an open-plan layout that’s perfect for two couples or a small family. A games room and courtyard add elements of fun and fresh air, and a pet is welcome to holiday here too.

Enjoy a town centre stay with an emphasis on together-time – behind the traditional brick frontage of this terraced house is a well-planned interior that will make you feel at home the moment you step inside. Within the clutter-free kitchen/diner, there are all the essentials for an effortless stay, with a contemporary dining suite that suggests companionable mealtimes or simply somewhere to chat while the chef is at work. Comfortable seating and a TV set the scene for relaxing evenings in the lounge, while those with a competitive edge can follow a steep flight of stairs down to a games room that comes complete with a pool table and bar-style seating. When the last ball’s in the pocket and it’s time for bed, head up to the first floor where there are two bedrooms – one with a TV and a wrought iron double bed to match the feature fireplace, the other with two single beds – plus a spacious bathroom. Accessed from the kitchen/diner, the courtyard area at the rear extends your living space and, furnished with table and chairs, it’s the perfect place for outdoor drinks and dining.

Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, Skipton has a 900-year-old castle, romantic priory ruins, a weekly market and a cobbled high street. A thriving centre for trade since Saxon times, the town’s economy was boosted by the opening of the Leeds-Liverpool Canal, Britain’s longest inland waterway, in the 1700s. Today the waterfront is a prime spot for people-watching, while characterful side-streets are home to shops and a great choice of pubs, restaurants, tea rooms and takeaways – all just a short stroll from your front door!
