Our cottage is ideally located for either a leisurely holiday, taking advantage of the many local walks and beauty spots, or for touring the Yorkshire and Northern Dales. It is situated at the foot of Wensleydale. The nearest market towns are Leyburn (5 miles) and Bedale (4 miles) and the ancient Viking city of York is just one hour's drive away.

How to get to THE SHIPPON

Wensleydale is the valley of the River Ure, renowned for its beauty and charm, and is the widest and most gentle of the Yorkshire Dales, also the home of the famous Wensleydale Cheese. If you want peace and relaxation, where the pace of life is still slow and easy, then come and stay at The Shippon and enjoy perhaps the most beautiful, unspoiled holiday area in the country.
