About The Woolly Sheep Inn
A bar and restaurant sit right at the heart of The Woolly Sheep Inn on Sheep Street in Skipton, giving it the feel of a proper pub that happens to have rooms upstairs rather than a hotel with a bar bolted on. Guests get en-suite bathrooms, family rooms for those travelling with children, and free WiFi throughout, with drinks available in the room and 24 hour reception covering late arrivals.
Breakfast is served on site, and there's a garden with outdoor seating for warmer days, plus luggage storage for those breaking up a longer trip through the Dales. Free on-site parking is a genuine plus in a town centre location, and pets are welcome for those not travelling alone.
Skipton Castle is within easy reach, and the surrounding area offers walking and cycling routes across the Yorkshire Dales, along with fishing, golf and watersports nearby. The town itself has further pubs, bars and restaurants close at hand, making the inn a workable base whether the plan is a day exploring the countryside or an evening spent no further than Sheep Street itself.
