Had a run up to Skipton this morning and as we have not been in a while, I had forgot how lovely it is.
For those who are unaware of Skipton, it is a bustling market town on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. It has most of the normal high street shops but an awful lot of individual traders too. It also hosts Rackhams.
The market however is a real treat, selling everything that you could wish for and the prices are fantastic! There were good sized herb plants for £3 including Bay, Yorkshire Cheese, Olives, Baklava, Feta cheese - it is a very good market.
There were Jersey Royals for 45p a pound, English Cherries for £1.50, English Strawberrys 3 punnets for £2.00.
It is a proper market and it wont be too long until we are going back!
There are plenty of places to eat out Cafes & Delis and probably the most famous place is Bizzie Lizzies for fish & chips (just next to the canal).
You could quite easily spend the whole day looking round this great, bustling market town.
Oh and on the way home went back via Hellifield for some fantastic Highland Beef Sirloin Steaks.
