Trump’s Tariffs? No Problem – Your Skipton Getaway is Safe!

3rd April 2025

Ah, tariffs. The mere mention of them brings to mind trade wars, economic debates, and stern-faced news anchors. But let’s be honest—none of that should stand between you and a relaxing break at Thisledo Holiday Cottage in Skipton.

Sure, global economies might be shaken, and the price of imported avocados could fluctuate wildly, but here’s why none of that should impact your stay in Yorkshire’s loveliest market town.

1. No Tariffs on Yorkshire Air

Breathe in. That’s the crisp, clean air of the Yorkshire Dales, and guess what? It’s completely tariff-free. No need to worry about additional levies or import duties when you take in a deep breath of Skipton’s finest oxygen—though you might get a whiff of fish and chips if you stand too close to Bizzie Lizzie’s (not a bad problem to have).

2. A Proper Brew is Always Affordable

Even if global trade wars send prices of fancy imported coffee beans through the roof, we can guarantee you’ll still get a proper Yorkshire brew at a sensible price. A strong cup of tea at Thisledo is more than just a drink—it’s a reassuring sign that, no matter what’s happening on the world stage, some things remain delightfully unchanged.

3. Skipton’s Cobblestones are Trade-War Resistant

Unlike high-tech gadgets or foreign luxury cars, Skipton’s historic streets don’t rely on international supply chains. The castle has been standing since the 12th century, and we’re fairly confident it’s not going anywhere just because of a few tariff negotiations.

4. No Import Duties on Local Delicacies

Worried about the rising cost of imported goods? Fear not! A pork pie from Stanforth’s is as local as it gets, and the only thing that might affect its price is how fast you can get to the counter before the lunch rush.

5. Thisledo is Inflation-Proof (Sort Of)

Okay, we can’t promise that prices will never change, but we can guarantee that Thisledo offers excellent value no matter what’s happening in the wider world. A cosy stone cottage, a central location, and a welcome for both you and your dog—none of that is up for negotiation, even if international trade agreements are.

So, if the latest news on tariffs has you feeling a bit frazzled, there’s only one logical solution: book a trip to Skipton, switch off the news, and enjoy a tariff-free stay in Yorkshire’s happiest little hideaway.
