THE SKIPTON HOTEL
GATEWAY TO THE DALES
Award-winning 96 bedroom waterfront Hotel, located on the banks of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal in Skipton, the ‘Gateway to the beautiful Yorkshire Dales.’ Ideal for conferences, a walking, cycling or family break. Perfect for weddings, team building and celebrations with event space flexible for your requirements up to 300 guests. Work out in our gym, or simply relax during your stay in our indoor pool and hot bath at the Leisure Club.
Ideally located to explore towns and cities such as Harrogate, York & Leeds or enjoy beautiful landscapes such as the Yorkshire Dales and Yorkshire Moors by foot, bike or car. Why not visit historical buildings such as Fountains Abbey, Bolton Abbey, or jump aboard a steam train on the numerous heritage lines that are close to the Hotel. If you are a keen cyclist, we are bike friendly and no better location in the UK to enjoy the two wheeled pursuit. Races including the Tour de France, Tour of Britain, and Tour de Yorkshire have graced nearby routes.
Finally, don’t forget that we’re also pet friendly (by arrangement), so you won’t have to be separated from your four-legged pals whilst you explore this beautiful area.

“Out on the wily, windy moors…” 🎶 No sign of Kate Bush, Margot Robbie, or Heathcliff today, but a great walk starting at the Parsonage in Haworth, to Bronte Waterfalls and up to Top Withens, the derelict farm building that many believe inspired Emily Bronte’s ‘Wuthering Heights’ 📖 Looping back to Haworth and its range of traditional pubs, cafes and independent shops. Bank holiday Monday done right! 🥾 Just 13 miles from Skipton and a highly recommended trip out during your stay with us 👍 #wutheringheights @bronteparsonagemuseum
