Looking for holiday homes for sale at Tarn House Holiday Park in Skipton? Set on a gentle rise overlooking the Dales, this pet-friendly, family-friendly park pairs big-sky views with a characterful 17th-century country inn at its heart (reception, sales, bar and dining). Leafy, well-kept grounds and walkable access to Skipton make it an easy base for walking, cycling and Dales day trips. Viewings by appointment recommended; availability varies throughout the year.

Description

Arrive along a leafy driveway that leads past holiday homes to the sympathetically restored stone inn and an outdoor patio that makes the most of the hillside outlook. Mornings start slow—coffee with panoramic views, a loop around the grounds, then down to Skipton’s markets, cafés and 900-year-old castle. Families have space to roam (play park, multi-use games area/sports court, grassy corners for picnics) while couples lean into quiet evenings in the bar or golden-hour walks as the Dales fade to dusk.

With the Yorkshire Dales National Park within easy reach, cycling routes from the gate and good road connections across North and West Yorkshire, Tarn House balances relaxed park life with plenty to see and do nearby.
