The judges were impressed by sports clubs and the opportunities they offer for young people, and the energetic community spirit, the town's lovely cinema and thriving market. Situated within the heart of the Wharfe Valley, surrounded by the famous Moors to the south and the River Wharfe to the north, and with rail links to Leeds and Bradford, Ilkley is regarded as an ideal base for the commuter.
