The property is praised for being well-equipped and beautifully appointed. However, a single mention of the need for updating and difficulty with the shower suggests there is a slight room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.

Sitting at the centre of the excitement within the lively town of Skipton, you will find the charming dwelling of 4 Prospect Place. Just a stone's throw away from the vast green landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales, this warm and inviting abode is the perfect base from which to enjoy the very best that the English countryside has to offer. As you step inside this newly-refurbished home, discover an attractive and traditional sitting room featuring two plush sofas and an eye-catching gas stove, ideal for snuggling up and enjoying an entertaining evening indoors on those cold winter nights. Continuing through the property, a well-designed contemporary kitchen can be found boasting a plethora of appliances such as an electric oven and hob, as well as hosting a pretty country-style dining table where you can indulge in many delicious meals. Climb the staircase up to the first floor and be greeted by two lovely bedrooms; the master bedroom includes a king-size zip & lock bed, which can be divided into two separate single beds if required, whilst a second bedroom is home to a futon, allowing for flexible sleeping arrangements. Here you will also find a sizable bathroom with both a bath and shower over. Head out to the enclosed garden for a breath of fresh air, or grab your walking boots and waterproof coats and head for the great outdoors. Often referred to as 'The Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales', it's little wonder that Skipton has become a firm favourite amongst many holiday makers. Spend your days wandering the canals that line the town, or delight in a tour of the 12th century Skipton Castle and the Craven Museum and Gallery. See the beautifully-restored Embsay & Bolton Abbey Steam Railway, or head deeper into the Yorkshire Dales to discover the Stepping Stones, Bolton Abbey and The Strid Ancient Woodland. Admire colourful flowers and the well-kept lawns of Parcevall Hall Gardens, or discover the quirky and unqiue geological site of Malham Cove on an awe-inspiring hike through the Malham Tarn Estate. Escape to the beautiful Yorkshire countryside with a holiday to 4 Prospect Place.
Ideally positioned on the outskirts of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Skipton is a bustling town boasting beautiful canals and an abundance of amenities, such as a good selection of cafés, pubs and stores. Surrounded by the glorious open countryside, there's so much adventure right on your doorstep. The encompassing towns of Keighley and Harrogate are well-worth a visit, whilst Pateley Bridge and Aysgarth provide ample opportunity to explore the Yorkshire Dales and Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Had a lovely week bit hilly getting in but really good neighbours, everything you could need for a lovely stay in Skipton

The cottage has everything you could want. Tony goes to so much trouble to make it homely and welcoming for his guests. Left us lovely treats in the fridge, bread cakes and even bunches of flowers. Yes, parking could be tricky I imagine in the height of the season, but we managed to get a space on the end road on Friday, then Sat and Sun we actually got on Prospect Place right opposite. It literally is only a five minute walk down into town, and maybe 10 at a push back up, itâs not as steep as some are saying. Really enjoyed it, and will definitely stay again if weâre back up that way. Thank you Tony!
