A short stroll will take you to the Medieval Castle, one of the oldest in the country, the lively canal basin, Skipton woods, the charming four-day market set out down the entire length of the main high street. Visit the stunning grounds of Bolton Abbey and cross the famous stepping stones, or test your swing with a round of golf at Ilkley Golf Club.

Those looking to get their steps in can take on the Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge, climbing Pen-y-ghent, Ingleborough and Whernside within the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Moor View makes a fantastic base for exploring the Yorkshire Dales. Note: This property can be booked with Waters View (Ref. 1119838) - together they sleep four guests, making it ideal for two couples.

Skipton, often known as "The Gateway to the Dales," is well situated for exploring all that the Dales has to offer, and is just a short drive from York, the Lake District, and the West Coast. This charming market town boasts an antique castle that is available to the public, a stunning mediaeval parish church, and a colourful market that fills the cobblestone setts on either side of the high street. It has much to offer the eager tourist. Skipton was rated the "greatest place to live" in Britain by The Sunday Times in 2014, and two years later it was designated one of the top nine towns in Yorkshire and the North-East. At Embsay and Bolton Abbey, steam railroads offer frequent excursions, and the Leeds to Liverpool Canal travels through Skipton, passing through the 1-mile-long Foulridge Tunnel and the 5-rise locks at Bingley within a short distance. Golf, swimming, squash, tennis, and snooker are all offered nearby, and the great public transportation allows you to leave your car at home!

    A couple of very small points - the WiFi code on the little board is wrong (a letter is capitalised which should be lower case) and although the correct code is in the information folder this did cause some confusion. Also, Andy very kindly phoned me to give details of the code for the key safe but because we both had poor signals I misheard one digit and wrote down the wrong number, which Andy didn't pick up despite me repeating the number back to him. A phone call is a lovely personal touch but perhaps it would be helpul to follow up with a text with the code, to avoid confusion.

    Ideal for exploring the area.

  • Doreen

    Extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean and well-equipped accommodation. The mattress was so comfortable we both slept very well. Off street parking was a plus. Ideal location, a short walk along the canal path to the town centre and close to lots of other interesting places to visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Moor View.
