Skipton we discovered was a pretty castle market town full of team rooms and cafes - you'd need to spend a month there to visit them all I swear! We had lunch at the Pie Shop which I thoroughly recommend. Pie, chips and gravy all for around £7. The rest of our visit was spent aimlessly meandering up and down the streets and discovering a very cute shopping centre.

On the way home we stopped at Haworth, home of the Bronte sisters. One of the features here was a steep cobbled street lined with cute shops and fantastic hilly views.
The way home was a little troubling. Both our phones had died on us and so I relied on my sense of ' I think this is the right direction'. I had a major panic though when stopping on a steep country lane to let a car pass. I couldn't move the car without rolling backwards. It was so embarrassing as there was a car right behind me. After eventually working out how to move forwards it started to get dark and we were in the middle of nowhere and I didn't know how to find my way. Luckily, as seems to be the case with many of these remote places, a main road isn't too far away and makes you instantly grateful for tarmac, signposts and two-way traffic!
Anyone else been to Skipton or Haworth? Where do you enjoy visiting in Yorkshire?
