The property

Canal View is a charming holiday cottage renovated to a very high standard and situated very near to the local amenities of Skipton, North Yorkshire.

With convenient roadside parking, this delightful retreat offers an ideal base for families, friends or couples seeking to explore the vibrant market town and its picturesque surroundings.

As you step inside, you’ll find yourself in a beautiful bright and thoughtfully designed open-plan space that brings together the lovely new kitchen, dining area, and sitting room.

The kitchen comes fully equipped with everything you’ll need to rustle up a hearty meal, while the dining table offers a pleasant spot to linger over food and conversation.

The sitting area, with its comfortable seating, is an ideal place to unwind after a day spent exploring the charms of Skipton, and a fantastic place to relax and watch the boats float by on the canal down below and great fun to watch the swing bridge operating.

To the front of the property, a nice bright enclosed patio offers a peaceful setting for your morning brew or an evening tipple, a welcome escape from the rush of everyday life.

When night falls, you’ll have two beautifully finished bedrooms to choose from.

The king-size room features its own en-suite with toilet, basin and walk-in shower, adding a dash of luxury to your stay.

The second bedroom, a calming double, also has an en-suite complete with walk-in shower toilet and basin, giving each guest their own private space to start the day.

If you can manage to tear yourself away from the exquisite comfort of Canal View, immerse yourself in the local charm at the bustling Skipton Market, providing not just an authentic shopping experience but also a taste of the town's history.

Venture deeper into the past with a visit to the impressive Skipton Castle, a well-preserved medieval fortress that offers breath-taking views.

For nature enthusiasts, a must-visit is Janet’s Foss, a mystical waterfall surrounded by enchanting greenery.

Alternatively, soak up the sun at Ilkley Park/Riverside Gardens, an idyllic spot alongside the River Wharfe for picnics, strolls, and even a bit of bird-watching.

Bring out the child in you with an exciting ride on the Embsay & Bolton Abbey Steam Railway, disembarking at Bolton Abbey Station for a day of exploration.

Be sure to stop at Linton Falls to marvel at Mother Nature's power and perhaps even glimpse a rainbow before rounding off your day at the extensive Aireville Park.

Canal View places you at the heart of these Yorkshire delights, promising a holiday brimming with laughter, relaxation and unforgettable moments.

Where you’ll be staying

SKIPTON

Grassington 9 miles; Harrogate 20 miles.

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. In 2014, The Sunday Times named Skipton as Britain's "best place to live" and two years later placed it among the nine best towns in Yorkshire and the North-East. Steam railways with regular excursions are available at Embsay and Bolton Abbey, and the Leeds to Liverpool Canal passes through Skipton with the 1 mile long Foulridge Tunnel and the 5-rise locks at Bingley within a short travel. Golf, swimming, squash, tennis and snooker are all available locally and the excellent public transport means the car can be left at home!
