Otley is a beautiful Yorkshire market town having a population of approximately 15,000 people, set on the banks of the River Wharfe. Otley is a friendly and picturesque town with a rich commercial and community life.

Immediately to the south of the town rises Otley Chevin, which gives magnificent views over Mid-Wharfedale, fantastic walks and cycling routes and in the past provided much of the stone from which the town centre was built.
