The apartment is fully self-contained and is cleaned before and after every guest booking. New on the market last year is our bespoke coach house holiday apartment. Within easy walking distance of Ilkley's vibrant town centre with transport links including bus and train station. Leeds/Bradford international airport is a 20 minute taxi ride away. We have dedicated on-site parking and garaging available for motorcycles plus the facility now to charge your electric car.
Living on site we can offer a warm welcome at most times of the day and are always on hand to assist in any issues you may have with your stay. Please call or message in advance of your arrival to request fresh milk, bread etc. to be provided in your fridge. We are keen motorcyclists who understand the value of security and are able to offer space in our garage for your machines.
Ilkley is a very popular Spa town on the River Wharfe at the entrance to the Yorkshire Dales National Park. We boast an above average choice of eating and drinking establishments (including Betty's) all within easy walking distance of The Smithy. There is a Tesco supermarket within 3 minutes walk and the railway and bus station are only 5 minutes away. We are at the start (or end) of the Dales Way walking trail and on a very busy cycling route.
