Great stay lovely house bit pricey but worth it Quiet location good base to explore the dales from lots of little villages and towns within an hours drive My wife has mobility issues so stairs were a bit daunting Plenty of shower rooms and the hot tub jacuzzi and sauna were useful particularly for our grandson The dog really enjoyed the canal walk each day Would like to visit during the summer to get about more Beds were comfortable and we all enjoyed great nights sleep Ideal for family with teens The welcome pack of milk teabags and sugar was most welcome after our long journey as was the gift of chocolates and bottle of wine Would definitely recommend a visit
Sharon
Amazing house! Very well situated with everything you could ever need within walking distance. The house is stunning and decorated to a very high standard and well equipped. The hot tub is a brilliant idea after a long walk. Sleeping arrangements perfect for two couples having their own self contained areas. Easy access to some moderate walks and great pubs. Overall a luxury base to enjoy Yorkshire.
Yvonne
Beautiful cottage with wonderful outlooks over the canal. Everything we needed was available. Warm welcome on arrival by Kyle and Mark waved us off. Will be booking for next year. Thank you
A fantastic property with a beautiful view x As soon as we stepped in, it felt like home Immaculately clean, everything you could possibly need hot tub and a sauna. We took our 10yr old chocolate lab Stanley who enjoyed sitting on the first floor balcony watching the ducks, barges and wagging his tail at every passerby. The wine, chocolate and milk were a lovely touch. Kyle and Nicola were great hosts who greet you in person the night you arrive and were available if you needed them. Walks for all ages and abilities Gargrave is a beautiful village with 3 pubs, a lovely cafe and gift shop full of sweet treats that take you back in time. An Indian Restaurant delicious and a Fish Shop offering tasty meal deals for all budgets. Gargrave is is a great base for Ingleton, Malham, Skipton and Settle too. A great week away and we are already looking into returning next year. Sarah

My wife and I enjoyed our recent stay at Lock View. The weather wasnt kind to us but we were always warm and comfortable in the house. Its in a great location and for us the EV. Charger was really convenient.
The cottage is decorated and equipped to a very high standard. There was nothing that had not been thought through, including the view of the lock. Although this is a semi detached property, there is sufficient space and insulation for this not to be a problem. We had a restful fortnight enjoying The Dales and visiting some of the areas suggested by previous occupants. The local restaurants were exactly as described, the village has a well stocked Coop and a tearoom, which are within a short stroll from the cottage. We would definitely recommend this property and will be revisiting it.
Great property, well equipped and in a beautiful location. A perfect base to explore the Dales and come back to such a great house afterwards. Highly recommended.
Fabulous house to spend a week in, well equipped, enjoyed the sauna, hot tub and especially the jacuzzi bath. Would definitely stay in one of the Lock View properties again.
We had an amazing relaxing stay the property is well maintained with ample utensils we had a problem with the property on the first morning Kyle was straight over to sort it. The views from the property are amazing our dog loved the balcony watching the ducks in the canal & people & boats going by. The icing on the cake was having a sauna & Hot tub to relax after long walks. We are already looking to come back as its a perfect base to be while visiting family. Thanks Kyle Nicola & Mark
Excellent doesnt even come close to our stay here. A very enjoyable and comfortable time had by all. Highly recommended and will most certainly be returning. Thank you again for having us!
Christine
Beautiful house with everything you could want for a relaxing stay. Tasteful and stylish, peaceful and in a great spot
We really enjoyed our stay. The property is exactly as advertised and a great base to explore the Dales. Kyle and Nicola were very welcoming hosts. Being right on the canal is a definite bonus, with the tranquility and scenic access to the town centre.
Lovely little property, would benefit from larger bath towels though. Would also be great if some sort of gazebo roof could be put over the hot tub so it couldve been used more in the rain which it did! Overall though we had a lovely stay & would return
Jessica
A wonderful stay in a lovely house in a perfect location. Fabulous views of the canal from the living room and master bedroom. We loved watching the barges go by and the working locks although I wouldn't want to try to do it myself !! It was very peaceful but also 5 minutes away from the pub and the local shop. The house has everything you could possibly need. My teen loved the hot tub and sauna. We were lucky to have lovely sunny weather and the house was very cosy and warm. A real home from home and a great relaxing break. Would love to return!
We had a perfect stay We loved it and would definitely recommend to others. Hopefully we can return soon too xx
Another superb weeks break in a fabulous cottage with everything you could hope for. Spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated of a high standard with magnificent views. We stayed at the cottage next door last year and knew we'd be back just didn't think it would be so soon. We've made full use of all the facilities, another well equipped kitchen, enjoyed the Hot Tub sauna and spa bath. Lovely welcome pack of milk, chocolate and bubbly on arrival. Location is perfect In a beautiful village with plenty of places with in walking distance and beautiful places to drive to. Highly recommend the Sunday roast at the Mason Arms Also a Fish and Chip shop, Indian and a quant tea rooms. Which is a must to try as they are all fantastic Also there is a well stocked village Coop. The hosts were very friendly, and helpful. I'm sure we'll be back again in the future.
This property was of a very good standard and very luxurious with a hot tub and sauna! It was worth every penny we paid for it. The bedrooms were so beautiful as was the rest of the house with everything we needed for the 3 days we were staying there. Nicola was very quick to respond to any questions we had. We will definitely be back.
Victoria
Lovely property, well furnished and great setting. Host were great and there if we needed them. We would definitely return
Just had Lovely 4 day break here, the property is beautiful, decor & furnishing of a high standard everything you need hot tub & sauna is great after a days walking. Good location Skipton is a 4 mile walk along the canal, Settle is a half hour away via train or bus, 3 pubs all easily walkable, we ate in the Old Swan would highly recommend the food.
Denise
The property was clean & well furnished. Communication with Kyle and Nichola was good & helpful too. However, the photograph on the Sykes website, of the view from the first floor balcony whether you are standing up or sitting down does not provide a clear enough representation of the ACTUAL view. The view is directly onto a coal merchant yard, with coke heaps covered in tarpaulin and old tyres. The canal & lock can be seen if you look down over the balcony. Very disappointing.
We absolutely loved our holiday. Property was to high quality and we didn't want to leave. We will definitely be back. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely house. Beautiful surroundings and we did something everyday
Vincent
This was an amazing stay and looked exactly like the photos on the website. Gargrave is a lovely place and everyone is so friendly. Both pubs, the local chippy and indian restaurants must be tried at some point as all excellent. The hosts were great and helped out whenever needed. Would 100 recommend and would love to ho back again in the future.
Andrew
We had a great break in this dog friendly property. It was well furnished and had all modern conveniences the hot tub was particularly welcome after a good day walking in the Yorkshire dales. The owners were friendly and helpful, we would recommend highly.
Jacqueline
Really nice property very comfortable and lovely. Only criticism is mine but a filter coffee machine would have been nice. Had a pod coffee machine but not so much my thing. Would recommend without any concerns a really good base for travelling to lots of places lovely out look and nice overall property
Loved the property Amazing facilities
Property was amazing. So clean and modern. Lots of special touches. Excellent views and close to a very lovely village with many places to eat. Would highly recommend this holiday property.
We couldnt have asked for anywhere nicer beautiful house and location. And the lovely chocolates and wine on arrival. We had a fantastic week .
The best property weve ever booked through Sykes! Everything of a high standard, comfy beds, great kitchen and hot tub and sauna! A real added bonus was electric car charging on site. The house has a stunning view of the lock with a balcony in the second floor lounge and the village has everything you need and is a short drive from some great spots. We ventured as far as York and Harrogate and the same distance in the opposite direction you can reach Lake Windermere.
This was our second stay at 6 Lock View and it was lovely to visit in warm weather! The cottage is beautifully presented and very comfortable, the small courtyard garden and the hot tub perfect for 4 people. Gargrave is a very pretty village only 2 minutes walk away and we went into the lovely town of Skipton twice, once by taxi and once on foot via the canal. Well worth a visit and a canal boat trip is also recommended. We would not hesitate to return!
Darren
This is a great cottage in a great location, made for a really comfortable stay.
Melanie
A beautiful property with excellent facilities a real home from home. Location is perfect for exploring the Yorkshire Dales. Situated on a working canal in a local town with two excellent pubs and a lovely 5 mile canal walk away from Skipton. Highly recommend this property for couples and families.
Stephen
A gorgeous property, tastefully decorated and furnished. A really pleasant weekend retreat, with sauna and hot tub. Had a lovely anniversary weekend. Our hosts left us wine and chocolates upon arrival and were very accommodating about arrival times etc. the welcome pack has useful information and the house is wonderfully comfortable. Couldnt recommend highly enough.
Property was amazing had the best stay. The little village its in is lovely as well.
Modern property, good facilities and well equipped. Hosts very helpful. Plenty to do locally.
Jacqueline
Very nice, clean and warm property. Both double bedrooms are lovely. Plenty of room and storage. The owners have thought of everything.
Elaine

Attractions Near 6 Lock View

While there'll be plenty to keep you entertained an 6 Lock View itself, if you plan to get out and about and see some of what Yorkshire has to offer, here are some of the nearby attractions you can enjoy during your stay. Please note that some of these activities and days out are paid and it's always a good idea to book in advance to secure your place where applicable.

Bowland Wild Boar Park - PR3 2QT
about 18 Miles
Head for the Bowland Wild Boar park and we don't think you will be disappointed.  A popular attraction in Preston there is so much to do for the whole family.  From picnics, walks and wildlife to experiencing feeding the animals you are sure to have a memorable day out.  Also popular is the kids tractor play area.  For rest and relaxation the cafe is ideal serving hot drinks and snacks with a lovely view over the pond and wildlife feeding station.  The Forest of Bowland has been declared an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Fountains Abbey - HG4 3DY
about 23 Miles
This is an outstanding world heritage site located close to Ripon in the North Yorkshire area. Nature lovers will be in their element with an abundance of wide open spaces to explore and there are special guided tours for families.  Some of the highlights may include seeing wild deer and bats during your visit.  The grounds are fantastic to wander round but there is also an Elizabethan Mansion, Victorian Church, Georgian Water Garden and the finest example of Cistercian Abbey ruins in the country - Well worth a visit!
Lightwater Valley - HG4 3HT
about 25 Miles
Situated in the Ripon area of North Yorkshire this popular theme park makes a fantastic day out for the whole family.  The more daring will love the big and thrilling rides such as Raptor Attack, The Ultimate and Trauma Tower.  For the little ones there are some excellent attractions such as Flying Camels, Dodgems and a Magic Wheel.  Toddlers will like the Dragon Boats and the Lightwater Express amongst other things. There are over 40 rides and attractions in total and we think this is excellent value for money too.  If you book your tickets in advance online you can save even more money and beat the queues.
Big Sheep - EX39 5AP
about 29 Miles
This is a recommended day out for families with young children visiting the Bedale area of Yorkshire.  Visit the farm and receive a warm welcome as well as a guided tour.  You will have the chance to bottle feed the lambs, bath a pig and handle some of the smaller animals.  Kids will love the big sandpit and the outdoor play area. There is also a cafe and indoor play area for when the weather is not on your side.
