Beautiful location!
We had a lovely stay at the Shippon. It's set in a beautiful location in the Yorkshire Dales, and was clean and comfortable. Becky and Joey were great hosts, friendly and helpful and very happy to show us their animals on the farm! I highly recommend a stay at the Shippon. It's location is great, just up the road from Bolton Abbey and near to Skipton and Ilkley, both towns are worth a visit.
