A Perfect Day Out …

Full of history, independent shops, amazing cafes, restaurants and bars and its very own medieval castle a visit to Skipton makes for a great day out.  Known as the Gateway to the North Yorkshire Dales, Skipton has a thriving community and was voted as the second happiest place to live in a pole by Rightmove.co.uk, 2020. 

The newly restored Town Hall has become the hub for Culture and Heritage, housing the Craven Museum & Gallery, with a changing programme events and exhibitions from both local and national artists. 

Sitting at the top of the high street  Skipton Castle is one of the most complete and well preserved medieval castles in England.  Fully roofed, with an enchanting  courtyard and incredible gatehouse  combine your visit  with a scenic walk along Eller Beck that runs behind the castle for a perfect day out,  

Check online for events to keep the little ones entertained … and the grown-ups! 

A visit to the castle will not disappoint.
