Resplan
Byggnaden som nu inrymmer vårt biljettkontor är en av de äldsta kanalrelaterade byggnaderna i området, med anor från 1774 och är klass II. Det var ursprungligen ett lager för gods som transporterades på kanalen, därav de stora kranarna utanför - den ena mot kanalen, den andra mot vår kullerstensparkering, tidigare stall för hästar som bogserade båten. Någonstans nära platsen för kajen, även om den exakta platsen nu är förlorad, låg Winterwell Hall, en medeltida herrgård vars rester gick förlorade under byggandet av kanalbassängen.
Båten passerar ett slingrande hål i den del av Skipton som kallas Snaygill. Mittemot det slingrande hålet finns Craven Nursing Home. Detta är byggt på platsen för Snaygill House, och byggdes ursprungligen som ett offentligt hus, Copper Beeches. Snaygill var tidigare en separat stad till Skipton. Den var listad i Domesday Book som ägd av William Erövraren, tidigare av Earl Edwin. Marken visades vara sex karukater i storlek och produktion - en karukat är marken 8 oxar kan plöja under en enda säsong, ungefär 120 hektar.

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.
This was an enjoyable experience. We had a bottle of wine with our tea which made it especially relaxing. The staff was efficient and friendly. It was well organized in that everyone was assigned a table before entering the boat, so there was no pushing or shoving to get to tables. The ride was long enough, though not quite as scenic as I had hoped. The pastries tasted better than the sandwiches which could have used more filling.
Well organised , attentive staff, pleasant cruise, just what you’d expect . Good value for money
A great experience, we had enjoyed the boat cruise with afternoon tea. The staff looked after us very well.
We had a fantastic time on the boat. My son was really looking forward to the boat trip and he enjoyed it. My Mother in law was very pleased with the surprise boat trip I prepared for her. She said that she has been to Skipton so hundreds of times but never went on the boat. The boat is decorated festive with Christmas music. It’s a great way to start the festive period!
