The Middleton district of Ilkley has long been regarded as the town’s prime residential area – the neighbourhood stands on the southern facing bank of the River Wharfe and is home to the town’s cricket and rugby clubs along with the swimming pool/lido complex. A short walk over the old river bridge leads to Ilkley Lawn Tennis and Squash Club.
The former Victorian spa town of Ilkley is well known for its first-class shopping, and comprehensive social and recreational amenities including an independent cinema and the popular Winter Gardens. From the town centre there are excellent rail services throughout the day into the local cities of Leeds and Bradford, with regular onward connections from the former to London Kings Cross. The countryside and rugged moors which surround the town offer many an opportunity for rural pursuits.
