Just 200 metres from Skipton’s vibrant retail hub, this terraced retreat offers an authentic taste of market-town life. An on-trend social space is complemented by three family-friendly bedrooms and an enclosed patio garden. Your pair of pups will love sniffing out the nearby canal towpaths and Castle Woods. For longer walkies, venture into the Dales – magnificent Malham Cove is 12 miles away.
This mid-terrace cottage sits at the heart of one of Yorkshire’s liveliest market towns. Pause to admire the traditional street scene before stepping into an inviting lounge/diner, tastefully updated with warm tones and wood flooring. Spend your downtime stretched out on a sofa before the Smart TV, or gather around the dining table for tasty home-cooked meals with the pups watching for titbits. Shaker-style units and all the must-haves of home feature in the sleek kitchen, which has a door into the patio garden. Once the dogs are settled for the night, ascend to the first floor where two double bedrooms await, along with a family bathroom. More stairs lead from one of these double bedrooms to a twin room with rooflights in its low, sloping ceiling – perfect for the children in your party. Your living space extends into the enclosed patio garden, where you can fire up the BBQ and store bikes or other holiday gear in an outhouse that hints at the property’s history.
On-street parking means you can truly live like a local – your whole pack will enjoy strolls to the nearby four-day-a-week market, and around the grounds of medieval Skipton Castle and its woodland. For longer walks, follow the Leeds-Liverpool Canal towpath –16 miles away, well-heeled Saltaire is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with well-preserved mills and workers’ housing. Head in the opposite direction and the Yorkshire Dales National Park delivers a wealth of waggy-tailed walks, with the limestone cliff of Malham Cove a must-see.
