    Breakfast is pricey but only because we were on a budget, there’s ample choice within walking distance though and you can leave your car until 12:00.

    Absolutely beautiful, we stayed in the Shepherds Hut, it was spotless, had absolutely everything you could think of needing and made me want to sell up and live on a mountain tending my flock. I got a text message in the morning telling me I could arrive earlier if I wanted to (and all feathers had been removed due to my allergies!) The parking is so handy and on the day of checkout you can leave your car there until 12:00 so you can have a little mooch around the shops in the morning or go out for breakfast.

    Wonderful stay at The Bailey. Mark was so welcoming and might us feel right at home. We stayed in the deluxe King room which was lovely, so many thoughtful touches including home made biscuits and robes. Location is fab, few minutes to walk into Skipton and the Castle and only a 10 minute drive to Bolton Abbey. Breakfast was perfection! The home made bread, granola, jams and honey were delicious. Thank you for a lovely stay.

A truly scrumptious breakfast provided with home made bread, jams and honey, together with a full Yorkshire cooked to perfection. Would definitely recommend or stay again.

    Shepherd’s Hut was the perfect accommodation for us. It was quiet, clean and comfortable so we got a perfect night’s sleep. It is just across the road from Skipton Castle, so it was also extremely convenient. There are also many lovely pubs and restaurants nearby. The hosts are very kind and friendly. We really appreciated being able to leave our bags there. They also kept the cheese we bought at Wensleydale Creamery in their fridge after we checked out, while we visited the Castle and went for a walk in the Skipton Castle Woods.

    On arrival, we were greeted by Mark. Who was very welcoming! I told him what time we would be arriving so when we got there he was waiting outside, he escorted us to our room, which was lovely and spacious, very modern and exceptionally clean. I would highly recommend here, and I'll be staying again. Thankyou Mark.
