Known as “The Gateway to the Dales”, Skipton is well placed for visiting all that the Dales has to offer, whilst York, the Lake District and the West Coast are also within easy motoring distance. This lovely market town has much to interest the enthusiastic visitor, boasting an ancient castle open to the public, a beautiful old parish church and a colourful market occupying the cobbled setts each side of the high street. Enjoy a canal trip on a traditional barge or visit Embsay Steam Railway, which has regular steam train excursions at the weekend and is only 1 mile away. Golf, swimming, squash, tennis and snooker are all available locally and the excellent public transport means the car can be left at home!

Previous visitors' comments about Journeyman Loft:
The location was excellent, particularly the closeness to Skipton town centre, the railway and bus stations. We found it to be a spacious and well appointed property.
Mr Lingard, Lincoln, April 2013
The Journeyman Loft was lovely place, good location and easy to walk into Skipton.
Miss Stokes, Worcester, March 2013
In 30 years catering this is about the best property we've stayed. Cannot recommend it too highly. A truly splendid property.
Mrs Nurse, Derby, November 2012
We were made very welcome and there was tea and milk for us upon arrival. Good quality tourist information and the welcome pack and information pack for the property was excellent. It is a great central location to walk round Skipton and a good base to explore further around Yorkshire. Everything is provided for a comfortable stay for two.
