Yorkshire Trading Co

Well well, I concur with Rowena on this place although I can list everything they sell and if anyone wants that list then email me at getalifeandgolookyourself. not lol
I only discovered this company a year ago whilst wandering aimlessly (again) around Otley wondering why we go there full of excitement at our «day out» only to realise it’s just another town… Since my discovery I have visited the shop in Otley and Skipton and even Skegness and always end up buying something as there is always something you need.
What other shop can you make purchase’s that will allow you to build a fence, paint it then chop it up to put in your new BBQ all whilst wearing a fetching hat, then have a bath, dye your hair whilst eating chocolates, reading a book and playing with etch-​a-​sketch and a dolls house…
They really do sell that many different things it’s mind blowing… Car stuff for instance, from air horns to polish, birthday cards… I could go on but I have to do something else with my life so go and have a look next time you’re at a loose end in Otley or anywhere you see the sign :)

The Yorkshire Trading Company is a really handy place to visit. Having been installed where, I believe, the old Woolworths used to be in Otley you could imagine some old school woollies fans might have been somewhat miffed. Nevertheless it only takes one little peek inside to realise how much more useful (sorry woollies) this store is. Being as they’ve cropped up all about Yorkshire, thankfully, you don’t need to be in Otley to appreciate them but the one here is pretty good.
To describe exactly what they sell is a bit like trying to describe all the shades of blue. It would take eons. I’ll give it a go. They sell just about everything and anything — like an up market version of Wilkinsons. They have DIY bits, gardening items, clothes, household bits and so much more. The most delectable bit is that they sell all at pretty bargainous prices too — so truly a handy shop to have around. I can’t think of an occasion where I would think to myself «I need to go to The Yorkshire Trading Company,» but when I’ve been at a loose end in Otley it has been a pretty good place to start. Not bad!
