    great breakfast
    friendly staff
    secure parking
    noisy room
    small bathroom

    stayed for 1 night n it was really nice. the breakfast was soooo tasty, especially the hash brown, cooked perfectly. staff were super friendly n helpful, felt very welcome! also, having secure parking was ace, made things easy. the room had a nice touch, with fresh milk for coffee and proper yorkshire tea instead of those awful uht pots.

    only complaint was there was some noise from outside at night, so it was a bit hard to sleep. also, the bathroom could use a bit more space.

    close to attractions and great walking spots in skipton

    I loved being just a few steps away from the bustling town center and skipping down to the historic Skipton Castle, which made my weekend strolls delightful and full of charm. The nearby friendly cafes offered delicious bites to recharge between explorations. as a solo traveler, I appreciated the cozy room with modern amenities, making my stay comfortable and enjoyable.

    family-friendly atmosphere
    cozy double room
    special breakfast
    limited kids activities

    We really enjoyed our stay, especially the family-friendly atmosphere. My grandson loved the cozy double room, and the breakfast was something special. The central location made it easy for us to explore Skipton and enjoy the local shops and market together.

    For dads, it would be great if there were more activities for the kids to enjoy while dining.

    Historic building character, secure parking convenience, live entertainment options

    Noise levels from late-night revelers can disrupt your peace!!! Stairs to rooms can be a struggle if you have any knee problems!!!

    comfortable environment
    helpful staff
    excellent breakfast
    limited bathroom space
    external noise

    I had a fantastic time at The Woolly Sheep. The room was cozy and clean, which made my stay very comfortable. The hospitality tray with teas and biscuits was a nice touch. Breakfast was where it really shone—an impressive selection, and I loved the poached eggs! The staff were super friendly and eager to help, making me feel right at home. I did notice a bit of noise coming from outside at night, which made it hard to sleep at times. the bathroom felt a bit cramped, especially for two people.

    The room was beautifully decorated, inviting, and quite spacious, which made navigating around easy for someone like me. I particularly appreciated the charming ambiance, with cozy corners perfect for relaxing and enjoying a good book.

    excellent breakfast
    great vegetarian options
    helpful staff
    cramped room
    tight space

    The Woolly Sheep had a stellar breakfast that could rival any local eatery! The veggie options were top-notch, especially the poached egg – just perfection! Plus, the staff went the extra mile, making the stay delightful.

    The room size was a touch cramped. It felt like a sideways dance just to pass each other, especially since we were both juggling our bits and bobs. Perfect for a solo traveler, but my partner and I would prefer more space next time.
