About this property

On the outskirts of Skipton, in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, this charming, family-run hotel boasts a wonderful canal-side restaurant, great leisure facilities and idyllic views of the Leeds and Liverpool canal.

Skipton is a delightful traditional market town and is known as the Gateway to the Dales. On the banks of the canal, surrounded by the beautiful Yorkshire dales and within easy reach of York and Harrogate, the hotel offers the best of traditional Yorkshire hospitality and good accommodation.

Dine in the canal-side Restaurant and enjoy the wonderful views. Watch the colourful narrow boats drift by, sometimes with equally colourful characters on board! The restaurant also offers wonderful views of the local wildlife. Local swans nest on the canal bank here every year and proudly present their latest brood.

Guests are entitled to free use of the impressive leisure facilities, including the indoor swimming pool.
