THE VILLAGE OF SKIPWITH

Skipwith exudes quintessential English countryside charm, featuring scenic landscapes, historic architecture, and a close-knit community. The village is home to the acclaimed gastro-pub, The Drovers Arms, known for its locally sourced, homemade food that reflects the changing seasons.
