Summary: Ideal location, kind and accommodating people, room had all the essentials (tea, cozy bed, bathroom) at such a great price. Included breakfast was solid and hearty. I recommend emailing if you need to check in early. Nearby open late Tescos offered many food/etc options.
Christine Feb 10, 2026 03:56:54 PM
Summary: Emailed with a query before our stay, wasn't answered. On day of departure asked if we could pick our case up later, was told no. Had to wheel it around Skipton for two hours before our train. Disappointing that the pub closed so early on a Sunday.
Bernadette Feb 6, 2026 09:11:12 PM
Summary: Fantastic location - a 5 minute walk from the railway station. Minutes walk to Skipton Town Centre. I have had a wonderful ×3 nights stay at The Railway Inn. Highly recommend. Lovely friendly staff, I felt very welcome -which is much appreciated as a solo traveller. Lovely warm, spotlessly clean ensuite room @number 3. Delicious home cooked food! Thankyou!
