Disgusted!!! Disabled toilet unavailable and mens toilets locked. This should be a priority fix. Not a printed excuse
The car park is just adjacent to the canal basin which is in a beautiful setting opposite the canal boat trip. As of March 2023 to park there all day is £5.50 which is not too bad. There is lots to see and do in skipton. They have an artisan market on every 1st Sunday of the month (March - December)from 10am - 3.30pm run by R.S.H Artisan Markets. Lots of different food stalls, and artisan craft/gift stalls, all of them are talented and friendly. Great place to visit 🤩
Very good boat ride only four pounds each up and down the Liverpool Leeds canal amazing value great carpark just next to canal and lots of ice cream shops lovely coffee shops cheap carpark three pounds fifty pence for 3 hours very good value lots of swans and their babies my granddaughter fetched me a delicious sandwich and coffee from the coffee house next to carpark while she enjoyed a delicious icecream nice just to sit on seating provided next to canal excellent experience
I attend the Canal Basin to watch King Charles's coronation, on the big screen. Great venue with lots if entertainment & stalls. Skipton certainly know how to celebrate in style, fabulous venue & great atmosphere.
Decent car park, very big, there are actually two big car parks linked together. Good location. Reasonable tariffs for a tourist town. The public toilets there were pretty rank, but better than no toilets.
