Only 10 minute walk from centre of Skipton.
Highfield house is very close to centre of Skipton. Parking is relatively easy in the area. Our host was available when I called to ask about parking on drive and as she had finished preparing the rooms allowed us to check in then. Very helpful.

Long weekend in Skipton
Positives:
Comfy bed
Fridge in room
Yorkshire tea and Grandma Wilds biscuits in room replenished daily
Hosts were friendly and offered advice on local area
5-min walk to train or bus station
Close to shops, pubs, restaurants
Negatives:
No window in bathroom and extractor fan and a bit noisy
Shower took a few minutes to warm up
If you like to sleep with the window open the road outside is quite busy
Entrance hallway was a bit smelly
Overall, good value for money. Would stay here again.

From the moment we arrived Debbie made us feel so welcome, the room was spotless, the bed was ready comfy and the room was lovely and warm. In the morning when we went for breakfast Debbie greeted us with a good morning and a smile. Breakfast was well cooked, plentiful and set us up for the day. Thank you Debbie for making our stay so enjoyable. Harold & Gene Evans

Nice place to explore Skipton
Lovely friendly landlady who arranged for us to get in early (not pre-booked).
Really comfy bed making for a good night's sleep. Clean (if a tad dated i.e old doors, dark shower room) So, overall, a good place (very conveniently located for the town center) We will return. Thank you.

High marks for Highfield
Very pleasant stay at Highfield House over the weekend. Greeted by our host on arrival and all essential information shared. Room (4) was clean and adequate size. Towels etc changed each day where necessary. Only had breakfast on our last morning and regrets that we didn't try it before. It was lovely. Was lucky enough to get one of the parking spaces so didn't need to touch the car all weekend. Its a very showy walk into the busy end of town. Only criticism would be the weak wifi signal which barely registered on our phones. Think this has to be seen as a standard requirement these days. No hesitation recommending to others and will certainly consider again if we are lucky enough to make another trip to Skipton.

The owner/manager is lovely and was most accommodating which is why I always try and stay here when I visit Skipton. The room was lovely and the full English breakfast delicious! It’s like visiting family! The location is superb too - an easy walk to the town center and several restaurants. Highfield House will be on the top of my list for my next visit!
