The former Victorian spa town of Ilkley is well-known for its bustling town centre with its excellent retail, recreational and social facilities including healthcare, a cinema, theatre, the popular Winter Gardens, and a colourful array of independent and ‘high street’ stores. Sports clubs cater for numerous activities including swimming, cricket, rugby and golf, whilst the beautiful surrounding countryside of Wharfedale offers many an opportunity for rural pursuits, challenging walks, mountain and road cycling.
The town is ideally placed for the commuter with frequent connections throughout the day from Ilkley’s railway station into the local cities of Leeds and Bradford. There are frequent onward connections from the former to London Kings Cross, meaning an early start in the capital is a realistic prospect. Leeds Bradford International Airport is just 10 miles away, whilst the region’s road networks also provide ready access towards Harrogate and the A1 beyond, whilst to the west the M65 can be joined at Colne.
