Itinéraire
Le bâtiment qui abrite aujourd'hui notre billetterie est l'un des plus anciens bâtiments liés au canal de la région, datant de 1774 et classé au grade II. C'était à l'origine un entrepôt pour les marchandises transportées sur le canal, d'où les grandes grues à l'extérieur - l'une face au canal, l'autre face à notre parking pavé, anciennement écuries pour chevaux remorquant les embarcations. Quelque part près du site du quai, bien que l'emplacement exact soit maintenant perdu, se trouvait Winterwell Hall, un manoir médiéval dont les restes ont été perdus lors de la construction du bassin du canal.
Le bateau passe un trou sinueux dans la partie de Skipton connue sous le nom de Snaygill. Directement en face du trou sinueux se trouve le Craven Nursing Home. Ceci est construit sur le site de Snaygill House, et a été initialement construit comme une maison publique, les Copper Beeches. Snaygill était autrefois une ville distincte de Skipton. Il a été répertorié dans le Domesday Book comme appartenant à William le Conquérant, anciennement par le comte Edwin. Il a été démontré que la terre avait une taille et une production de six carucates - un carucate est la terre que 8 bœufs peuvent labourer en une seule saison, soit environ 120 acres.

The weather was beautiful the day we went and the whole experience from start to finish. Glad we chose the Afternoon Tea Cruise. The separate tables made for a romantic experience.
The service and food was lovely and the atmosphere was relaxed. Unfortunately the bridge was broken and we had to reverse a way back which they did brilliantly. Then an older lady took ill needing medical care and an ambulance. The team were excellent here assisting her and liasing with the medical team. Then another female staff member joined us to give drinks and make sure everyone was ok. They were all great in an adverse situation and we felt safe and looked after at all times. Well done team it was a tough one. Would definitely recommend the trip to others
A great relaxing few hours out. Food great, service great. Friendly staff aboard. Tea and coffee plentiful. This was a birthday present experience for us, we originally came in March but were unable to take the river cruise as we had our dog with us. Absolutely perfect afternoon.
We enjoyed spending two hours gently sailing along the Leeds and Liverpool canal whilst enjoying a tasty afternoon tea. The food was all very fresh and the staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. This all made a lovely change from the hustle and bustle of life. Would definitely recommend.
Just really good value. Food great. And very relaxing. I loved the fact that they kept topping up tea and coffee!
Wonderful afternoon gently cruising down the Leeds Liverpool Canal. Booking in was easy, helpful onboard crew, spacious in the seating/dining area and great views. Our cruise took 2 hours, and was full of interest with the scenery changing from hidden views of Skipton, to the gorgeous scenery all around Skipton. Plenty of wildlife spotting, interesting watching crew operate the bridges, etc…. The food was delicious and filling, a lot of variety. Boat had a board bar with a good selection of soft drinks as well as alcohol. Nice atmosphere as well on board. Boat had an onboard toilet and washroom. There are some steps down onto the deck, but crew are helpful, and offer advice. We would definitely do this trip again, very enjoyable, and good value for money.
Having spent the weekend in Skipton We had booked the canal trip for afternoon tea. We booked with Skipton boat trips The staff were polite , the food was excellent The canal trip lasted 2 hours it was well worth every penny
Brilliant vibes - lovely fish n chips and great curtious polite team
A lovely couple of hours spent on the canal. Staff were very friendly and the afternoon tea was delicious and not too much
The Afternoon Tea Trip on the canal boat is a really lovely treat. As a huge fan of afternoon teas, I enjoy locations and venues which are just a little out of the ordinary, and special. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience at The Ritz recently and I have to say that the food served on this trip could match it. Of course, ambience wise, this Afternoon Tea experience is a complete contrast, and none the worse for that. The trip is very relaxing (and gentlemen are not required to wear a jacket and tie!) the food delicious, the pace slow as the boat glides along the canal – another world. And no waiter anywhere, even at the Ritz, could be more attentive than Olly. In fact, all the staff are very friendly and helpful. A delightful experience and one I recommend wholeheartedly.
