"An excellent cottage in an ideal location for Skipton and the beautiful Dales."
Hadn't realised quite how steep the stairs were as neither of us as mobile as we used to be! The property was beautifully maintained and well equipped. Great support when the wifi dropped out (BTs issue, not the cottage). Would recommend to others.
-
"This property has obviously been recently renovated and has been done to a high standard for rental properties."
It was a pleasure to stay there. I hope the standard is maintained. It was warm, comfortable and cosy. Well done.
-
"Lovely, comfortable cottage, brilliant location just off the high street, but very quiet."
Would highly recommend, and hope to return.
-
"Cottage lived up to expectations - very convenient for everything in Skipton - had a lovely relaxing time."
-
"Wonderful cottage."
Everything provided for a relaxing stay. The position in Hallams Yard is perfect. Very quiet location with access to shops, restaurants and pubs within minutes. Milk , biscuits and cake welcomed us on arrival. Quiet outside seating area for sunny days. Would definitely book again
-
"Very clean and fully-equipped cottage."
Very quiet and well located.
-
"Very disappointed by the owners response to my query regarding the Freeview service."
It is not acceptable to expect everyone to have a smart phone and be able to access wifi (even if I had a smart phone I had no password). When a cottage advertisers Freeview we would normally expect to be able to access all the channels not just BBC as the person who phoned told me!!!!!!!
-
"We really enjoyed our stay in the very warm and comfortable cottage."
It's so close to everything Skipton has to offer. We had everything we needed and appreciated the sweet treats and milk that greeted us on our arrival.
-
"The property is charming and cosy, the kitchen is very well stocked."
The lounge is cosy with the fire on, sofas could be more comfortable. Beds were on the small side. The Cottage is fine for 5 adults but it would be better for a family with 3 younger adults or children. Overall we had an amazing Christmas at the Cottage, there is so much to do on your doorstep, with the canal and woods very close by, and 2 major supermarkets within easy walking distance. There is a good choice of cafes and bars/pubs along the High Street. Have always loved Yorkshire but fell more in love with it after this cottage break.
-
"The cottage was very central yet quiet."
It was comfortable and had everything we needed The owners were extremely helpful and we would strongly recommend this cottage
-
"Overall a comfortable and well located property."
Two things to consider if you are less mobile. 1) Stairs are very steep and there is a right angled bend at the bottom of the stairs which means that parts of the treads are narrow. 2) You have to walk about 50 metres from the car space for the property to the back door of the property itself, so make sure whatever you take is easy to carry.

"Cherry Tree Cottage was perfect for us, despite being just off the main street it was quiet and peaceful."
The kitchen was spacious and well equipped, the bathroom was modern and comfortable as were the beds. The house remained cool during the two-day July heatwave which was a bonus. With the train station about ten minutes walk and bus station nearby it was not essential to have a car.
-
"Really nice cottage."
Lovely and clean. You couldn't want to stay in a better location in Skipton. The stairs are a little steep with 1 bannister which is something to bear in mind. Overall excellent. Can't wait to stay again!
-
"The cottage is delightful and in a great location being in town and so close to everything."
I would highly recommend it but not for people with mobility issues because the stairs are very steep and come round a bend at the bottom which made it hard for my husband to get up and down. There was no highchair by the way although that is listed on the facilities and we had a 2 year old with us so it was a bit awkward. Other than that we enjoyed staying there very much.
-
"Cherry Tree cottage was very clean and well equipped bedrooms were very clean and comfortable it was situated well for local amenities we really enjoyed it ."
-
"We had a very enjoyable stay at Cherry Tree Cottage and hope to return there in future."
The property is a excellent base to explore the Skipton and Yorkshire Dales.
-
"It was one of the best equipped properties we have had, champagne flutes, cheese knives, sharp kitchen knives!"
It was very comfortable and we felt very at home.
-
"What a fantastic cottage."
Situated in the centre of the town but On a quiet yard just off the main street, and a few metres from the canal. The cottage has private parking right outside which is a bonus. We found it to be very clean and Very comfortable. Some really lovely touches with the decor. The rooms are all a good size with plenty of wardrobe space. The bed was so comfy.We had taken our own pillows as we normally find them not suitable in holiday accommadation, but to be honest we didn't need them. A lovely corner outside with table and chairs to sit and relax with a drink. I would definitely recommend Cherry tree cottage. We hope to return in the near future. Just the therapy needed for a relaxing break.

"Lovely cottage, second stay here, pleased to see light next to the dining table."
Great position for all that Skipton has to offer. Would be delighted to visit again.
-
"A lovely cottage in the one of the oldest parts of Skipton."
So convenient for the market, museum and castle and many eating places. Yet quiet and peaceful with friendly neighbours.
-
"A wonderful, well resourced house very conveniently situated near to the canal."
It was perfect! We had a wonderful holiday, since Skipton is the perfect base to explore the Yorkshire Dales. Cherry Tree cottage was a lovely 'home' to come back to after our daily adventures. We'll certainly recommend this house to our friends!
-
"A lovely Cottage in the Heart of town."
Really enjoyed our stay would highly recommend.
-
"This house and location is ideal for us and this is our second year in a row here and would book again for next year if not for the inflated corona prices."
We find Sykes very professional and a pleasure to deal with.
-
"Very impressed with property overall - very good position just off the High Street with plenty of shops/restaurants/cafes within a short walk."
We had a lovely stay with lovely weather. Couldn't get to grips with heating control and so cold towels in the morning.
-
"Gorgeous cottage in a fantastic location."
Had everything you'd need and more. Lovely and clean. Appreciated the welcome note and cakes.
-
"Good location for visiting Skipton and local area just 2 minutes walk for boat trips and same for the High St, Castle is only 5 Minutes walk up the High St To access cottage on a Friday when the market is on you need to approach from the other side of the canal ,would be handy if directions to property included alternative route if coming while market is on ."
-
"Would book again if the price was reasonable."
We shall not be booking any more cottages with the prices so high.
-
"This cottage is in a superb location."
The High Street is only 2 minutes walk away and the canal area is only 2 minutes walk away. Despite this the cottage is in a mews setting which is quiet and the adjacent parking is a real bonus. The cottage is very comfortable, the owner has thought of so much that is sometimes missing from a holiday property. The cottage was presented in a very clean condition and the welcome pack of biscuits and cake were well received.
-
"A lovely cottage with good facilities in a nice central location just a few meters from the High Street."
Dedicated parking spot close to the house. Special care was taken with the cleaning especially with the current Covid situation. Felt very safe and comfortable. Would highly recommend.
-
"Lovely, clean and very tasteful cottage."
Note it’s a full size under counter fridge and full size under counter freezer. We were so happy with this accommodation that we’ve already rebooked for next year, which means paying a 30% non refundable deposit...because it’s that good!!
-
"A lovely quiet spot only a stones throw from the centre of town!"
-
"Lovely clean comfortable cottage, near all amenities, but nice and quiet."
Booking with Sykes so easy.
-
"We had an amazing week in Cherry Tree cottage."
Very warm and comfortable.Every amenity has been anticipated, the main bed is amazingly comfortable and the kitchen has all that you need and then some. Location is ideal for the town and all the fabulous walks in and around the area. Our 2nd visit to this cottage and have already booked our third visit. We have stayed in other cottages within the town and Hallams Yard, we very much like this one the best. We would definitely recommend Cherry Tree cottage to anyone who is thinking of visiting the wonderful Yorkshire Dales, so much to see and do. The townsfolk and so very friendly unlike any other county we have visited within the British Isles.

"Cottage even better than expected & in the most perfect location."
Quiet, tucked away, yet with all amenities, shops, market, canal, etc. all only a stone's throw away. Perfect base for exploring Skipton, The Dales & all nearby cities, towns & villages. The most amazing farm shop I've ever come across nearby too! Thank you Sykes Cottages!

Fantastic well kept and furnished Cottage, ideally located a minute from the High Street yet in a quiet location, everything on hand you could not want more from a Holiday Cottage in such an ideal location
-
"Great cottage with a lovely homely feel."
It had everything we needed. Fabulous walking in surrounding area. So much more to do. Could easily have stayed another week. Will certainly return.
-
"It is a lovely, well presented, cosy cottage with all that is needed for a holiday stay."
It is just off Skipton High Street but it is so quiet you could easily forget you are in the centre of a thriving market town. An excellent base for visiting the Yorkshire Dales.
-
"Excellent cottage"
-
"Vey nice cottage - warm, comfortable, well appointed and great being so close to the centre of Skipton."
-
"The weekend away was great."
Cottage lovely, nice decor and spotless. Everything we needed. Great spot for exploring Skipton. Quiet area but soon in town high street or walks on doorstep.
-
"Excellent location for our needs."
-
"Lovely cottage in a great location for the town and trips around the Dales."
It's in a really quiet position with parking available right outside. Everything provided for our stay, heating hot water, TV and wifi all worked fine. Looking forward to returning to the Dales and staying at the cottage.
-
"Excellent and comfortable cottage in centre of town, with parking space, close to shops and many places to eat and have a relaxing drink."
Skipton Castle and the canal are close by with a pleasant canal side walk taking you to Aireville Park and the leisure centre. We would highly recommend Cherry Tree Cottage as a base to explore this lovely part of Yorkshire.
-
"Perfect location for visiting Yorkshire ."
-
"Stairs are a little steep and narrow (especially at the bottom) for older people."
Central location is excellent, yet still quiet. Skipton is a lovely place with good markets, shops and restaurants. A great place to be based when visiting the dales.
-
"Great Cottage, ideally situated and well equipped."
We were able to sample a local restaurant, walked around skipton woods and saw the local railway including stopping for a coffee at the cavendish arms, well worth the walk. Cottage warm and cozy, great to have a parking space and easy to walk out the door and be on the high street with shops so local.
-
"The cottage is lovely, furnished very well, all kitchen equipment you could require."
Beds beautifully comfortable, no trouble sleeping in those. All that & only two minute walk through the alley and directly into the High street, a definite advantage. The town very well served with major supermarkets only a 10 minute walk around the corner. Words cannot express the beauty of the Dales. THE COTTAGE. The Hot water boiler was broken on arrival (water when running from taps kept going cold, however owner & caretaker done all they could to rectify). This was still not as good as it should be when we left. Television reception abysmal not possible to watch. This was a disappointment as after a very long day hiking all that is required is a hot bath/shower & relax in front of the TV. We believe an aerial booster would rectify this problem. If the above were addressed we shall have no hesitation in booking this cottage over & over again.

About the location
SKIPTON
Grassington 9 miles; Harrogate 20 miles.
Known as “The Gateway to the Dales”, Skipton is well placed for visiting all that the Dales has to offer, whilst York, the Lake District and the West Coast are also within easy motoring distance. This lovely market town has much to interest the enthusiastic visitor, boasting an ancient castle open to the public, a beautiful old parish church and a colourful market occupying the cobbled setts each side of the high street. In 2014, The Sunday Times named Skipton as Britain's "best place to live" and two years later placed it among the nine best towns in Yorkshire and the North-East. Steam railways with regular excursions are available at Embsay and Bolton Abbey, and the Leeds to Liverpool Canal passes through Skipton with the 1 mile long Foulridge Tunnel and the 5-rise locks at Bingley within a short travel. Golf, swimming, squash, tennis and snooker are all available locally and the excellent public transport means the car can be left at home!
