The Skipton Hotel

8/10 Good
"Room was clean though it had a slight smell. Parking was rough. They had a big lot but there was not room for parking our rental so we had to wait for someone to leave when we parked. It was perfect for our needs I would stay again."

Lister Arms

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed in the Lister Farmhouse, which was delightful. The room was spacious, well designed with the amenities you need for a comfortable stay, including air conditioning. Breakfast was equally lovely, with Tom on-hand to provide you with great service and great food. We also had dinner at the Lister Arms on both the nights we stayed, with each meal exceptional. I would recommend you book ahead as every table was taken each night, and given the quality of the food, it’s not hard to see why."
