Middleton has long been regarded as Ilkley's prime residential area, occupying a predominantly southern facing position overlooking the banks of the River Wharfe within comfortable walking distance of Ilkley's town centre. The neighbourhood is home to many of Ilkley's sports clubs, whilst a walk over the old river bridge provides ready access to a couple of public houses as well as the lawn tennis and squash club.

Ilkley is well known for its excellent shopping environment and busy social round. There is also a highly regarded schooling system with a number of private schools located within the town or within daily travelling distance. For the commuter, Leeds Bradford International Airport is only some 11 miles distant and from the town centre railway station there are frequent services throughout the day into the local cities of Leeds and Bradford, with regular onward connections from the former to London Kings Cross.
