“Very nice cottage close to town no problem with hill turn left at front door left again small hill on return”

“The cottage was clean and kitchen well equipped however it needs updating, both the kitchen and bathroom are seriously dated and whilst you don’t go to Skipton to sit in the house it needs to be up to modern standards.”

The TV is tiny and in the visitors book it has been complained about since 2016 - they’re not exactly expensive especially when compared to how much we paid for a 2 night stay. Also the modern traveller expects WiFi. The cottage is on a very steep hill which I think should be mentioned in the description as I imagine some less mobile visitors would find it a struggle. Skipton itself is a beautiful town and we will be returning but probably not to Rose Cottage.

“Super cottage and good location.”

But if you have walking problems it is on a very steep hill. And if you walk down to the town its steep hill all the way up. Train station about 15 mins walk by alley, bus station 10 mins walk. Can get trips out if you go to the big red bus company web site. I did get some internet but very limited. But very clean cottage all the utensals we needed. Thanks for milk to make our 1st cuppers most welcome.

“The cottage was fine however there was no WiFi which made things diffecult when trying to look at local services, train's bus's and check access to the local area nearly all info is now find on the internet.”

The TV was far too small and the pans need renewing.

“Lovely cottage in the heart of skipton.”

Well equipped with all you would need. Very clean on arrival. Be aware of steep hill as this took some getting used to for parking and unsure if neighbours like holiday makers. They seemed to spend long periods tapping the wall in the evenings!!

“Lovely cosy cottage with close access to Skipton on foot.”

Also close to stunning Yorkshire Dales and Harrogate. Skipton is also a lovely town for shopping and exploring.

The property

A traditional, mid-terrace cottage situated just a short walk from the centre of the popular market town of Skipton.

This is a delightful holiday home, providing an ideal location for a small family or couple to get away from it all and enjoy the many delights of this medieval old town, known as the Gateway to the Dales.

The cottage features a spacious sitting room with a warm and cosy gas living-flame fire set in a feature fireplace, two comfortable settees and an excellent selection of books.

The adjoining kitchen is well equipped, with a dining area and useful pantry.

The rear yard is enclosed, and guests will discover a good little evening sun trap to enjoy after a day out in the nearby Dales.

There is also a lockable garden shed ideal for bike and equipment storage.

Upstairs, the two comfortable bedrooms are well served by a spacious bathroom with a bath and separate shower cubicle.

Just a two minute walk down the ginnel brings guests out onto the high street, once voted one of the best high streets in England.

A great base to indulge in the many delights of the famous town of Skipton, voted by the Sunday Times as “The Best Place to Live in Great Britain”.

A short stroll takes you to the medieval castle, one of the oldest in the country, as well as the lively canal basin.

Not to be missed is the fabulous four-day market, which is set out down the entire length of the main high street, along with the many excellent pubs and restaurants of this much-loved town.

It is just a short drive to the wonderful moorland walks at Bolton Abbey, limestone formations at Malham Tarn, and onto Grassington with its local farmer markets, 1940's weekends, beautiful stone buildings, quirky shops and friendly pubs.

This is an ideal base for exploring this part of the Yorkshire Dales.

About the location

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 2008 the Academy of Urbanism voted the High Street the best shopping spot in Britain, and The Copper Dragon/Greyhawk Brewery is highly rated in the CAMRA listings. 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!
