About The Gamekeepers Inn
An indoor swimming pool and on-site spa are not what you expect from a traditional Yorkshire inn, but The Gamekeepers Inn at Long Ashes Park near Skipton offers both alongside its countryside setting. The property blends the feel of a classic pub with hotel-standard facilities, giving guests a base that works equally well for relaxing and for exploring the Dales.
Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, and family and accessible rooms are available, with drinks in room adding a homely touch. Guests can eat at the on-site restaurant or make use of the bar, and breakfast is provided. Free WiFi runs throughout, and there's a garden, picnic area and outdoor seating for warmer days, plus a gym for those who want to keep up a routine while away. The inn also has meeting rooms and hosts weddings, making it suitable for gatherings as well as overnight stays.
Outside, the surrounding area is well suited to walking and cycling, with fishing also nearby for those who enjoy it. Pubs, bars and restaurants in the vicinity give extra choice beyond the inn's own kitchen, and Skipton Castle and the wider Yorkshire Dales are within easy reach. Free on-site parking is provided, making it straightforward to come and go while based here.
