    Tips

    July 5, 2019

    My first visit after cycling by numerous times.

    Skipton Castle is a medieval castle in Skipton, North Yorkshire, England. It was built in 1090 by Robert de Romille, a Norman baron, and has been preserved for over 900 years

    Well worth a visit I am certainly pleased I did.

    Café within the grounds and the staff are brilliant.

    They have a place for bikes but no proper bike facilities to lock bikes - well it is medieval!

      At the top of Skipton's High Streetstand the impressive towers of Skipton Castle..

      Over 900 years old, Skipton Castle is one of the most complete and best preserved medieval castles in England and is well worth a visit at any season of the year.
