Poppy Cottage is attached the home of Steve and Sally,  at Ivy Cottage Farm (sorry no longer a working farm, although you will still find hens foraging around and wonderful open countryside to the rear), and is internally linked, along with having its own separate entrance, stairs, lounge, dining room and private decked garden. Guests will enjoy the privacy of the cottage  yet benefit from the service provided by their hosts, Steve and Sally along with their sons Jordan and Ben. 

In particular the hearty Yorkshire breakfast, prepared from locally sourced produce, our own free range eggs, all served in what was the original farm kitchen. This family run bed & breakfast offers you that 'little bit extra' and is certainly a place you will remember.                 

Since undergoing a full refurbishment in 2009, Poppy Cottage offers quality 'cottage style' bed and breakfast accommodation just 5 minutes drive from Skipton, fully up-graded, but still retaining many of it's original features and charm, with ample private parking for our guests.

And finally, in case you're interested, some history..    
                   
Ivy Cottage Farm was a working farm up until the late 1970's when the land was sold off and it became a private residence. The farm cottage (now known as Poppy Cottage) with attached barn - a traditional Dales longhouse, is believed to date back as far as the late 16th century. The attached barn was converted in the early 1990's to link to the cottage forming one long house.

Then in 2006 a further extension was built to the rear of the property to accommodate the space for what is now 'Ivy Cottage Farm and Poppy Cottage Guest House Bed and Breakfast'.
