The workhouse, victorian prison and the courthouse were fascinating. Also a beautiful Cathedral, lovely river walks parks. Excellent bus service to Harrogate and surrounding areas, all for £2.00 or bus pass. Nice places to eat and a very pretty little city. Would recommend as once there you don't need a car unless you want to explore further.

Ripon Cathedral was holding a Spring Fayre fundraiser - lots of stalls and a choir festival! There is a Museum walking Trail
There are independent places to eat and one of the larger chains in the market square which suited us!
Unfortunately the Spa Swimming Baths is closed - would've loved to see inside!

Ripon has 3 small museums which are well worth a visit. Try to catch the horn blower who sets the watch every night at 9pm. A pleasant town to walk around and of course the cathedral is a must, including the saxon undercroft.

Ripon had so much more to offer than expected.
Ripon had so much more to offer than expected. Everyone was so friendly, it has a Cathedral, three museums, a beautiful square, market day is on a Thursday. Just 5 minutes drive away is Studley Deer Park and Fountains Abbey, it had a racecourse, beautiful canal and riverside walks , at 9pm a must is a visit to the square to see the Ripon horn-blower blow the horn at the obelise and give a brief history of the Cities traditions.
We stayed at the Blackamoor with its own restaurant, and had a light lunch at Tates Garden Centre , both exceptional.
Lovely place. We were only there for one night as we were en route to Scotland and were unable to book in the usual motorway hotel because of lockdown restrictions. But what a treat! Much better stop off! Not far from motorway and were able to visit Ripon and have our own food in the evening (no cooker but a microwave and all the necessary eating equipment). Would be worth lingering longer.
Good value for money. Close to Ripon and an easy drive into Harrogate for sightseeing and eating places. Although on the main road and my room being at the front of the hotel, I had a great night's sleep. The hotel boasts a Carvery but, unfortunately, is only open on a Thursday, Friday and weekend.
The room was comfortable and the facilities more than adequate.
It was off the main road into Ripon, so not one that you could walk. It said on the website, '2 minutes' from Ripon and it was, but by car. I had misread it and thought we were staying in Ripon and could walk around the town.
The food was delicious and Seamus tried hard to be helpful and was very friendly and informative.
Beautiful, tranquil setting in the English countryside. Neil is so accommodating and will help you with anything you need during your stay. The room was decorated beautifully, and the breakfast was exceptional. North Stainly is only 10 minutes from Ripon town so you’re close to shops, pharmacies etc if needed.
The hotel was superb, lovely old building felt really comfortable, room was great even the holes and the cracks on the walls added to the charm of the place.
Breakfast was really good but unfortunately as I have lots of eating problems couldn't eat all was offered, my wife absolutely loved it all.
Small but well equipped cottage for two people. The host was lovely and the location ideal to access Ripon centre on foot..
Having use of the garden for breakfast and in the evening when we got home, was very relaxing.
The off-street parking space was welcome too.
Exceptional stylish accommodation with all the inroom facilities you would expect from a large hotel. Friendly, welcoming owner. Breakfasts amazing - Italian twists on traditional meals. Location ideal for exploring Ripon and further afield.
Perfect location - lovely and quiet with very scenic views easy to access from Ripon. The breakfast was fantastic. Room was cozy and the bed so comfy. Neil was polite, enthusiastic, and the perfect host. Would definitely return!!
The food was excellent . We had breakfast and evening meal . The staff in the restaurant and bar were pleasant and helpful.The location in the centre of Ripon was good and there was a car park round the back with a modest fee .
The staff are so helpful and responsive. The food is really good value for money as are the drinks. The fire safety provisions are superb. The location on the main square is perfect. This hotel is a gem.
House is in a great, central location. A beautifully decorated luxury property with well kept garden. Hot tub was a fantastic bonus. Lovely to see Ripon Cathedral across the rooftops from the top floor.
A Great place to stay right in the middle of the square in ripon centre easy to find secure parking and the apartment was spotless we were even provided with some goodies which was a lovely surprise
This was a perfect location for us visiting friends in the area. It was also very handy for the local pub less than 5 minutes away. Lovely rural location with easy access to Ripon and beyond.
