Apartment 10 Burnside House Carleton Road, Skipton BD23 2BE
Known as the 'Gateway to the Dales', Skipton is a thriving and
historic market town on the edge of the stunning Yorkshire
Dales National Park, with strong agricultural connections and a
magnificent castle dating back to the 11th Century. Its colourful
High Street hosts a market four days a week on the cobbled
setts, along with a wide choice of shops, restaurants and public
houses. The Leeds-Liverpool Canal runs through the town with
its pretty towpath walks and for families there is an excellent
choice of schooling at both Primary and Secondary level. Small
wonder that in 2014 Skipton was voted by The Sunday Times
as the best place to live in Britain, receiving commendations for
its "ideal combination of low crime rates, top-class schools and
great transport links", and in 2017 the Office of National
Statistics revealed that Skipton is officially the happiest place to
live in the UK!
