THE LOCAL AREA

Ripon is a cathedral city steeped in history and home to magnificent historical buildings and long observed traditions. You will find a trio of award winning museums and a gothic cathedral that dates back to the 7th century to explore.

The growth of the city through trade and manufacturing led to the building of a canal to link it to the navigable parts of the River Ure. Today this makes Ripon a delightful city to explore, with riverside and canal side walks that reach into the countryside and buildings that span the last thousand years. The city’s history is entwined with the church, both due to the cathedral in Ripon city centre and its proximity to the nearby Fountains Abbey.

Ripon also boasts an outstanding racecourse, a glorious stately home, a magnificent abbey and popular theme park. There are always great things to do in Ripon.

One of England’s oldest cities, the Hornblower who has blown his horn at 9pm every night for 1100 years to ‘set the watch’.

Georgian and medieval buildings surround the ancient market place including the grade II listed Town Hall in which can be found the newly opened Tourist Information Centre.

With a thriving market place and a magnificent cathedral, this beautiful little city will earn a place in any visitor’s heart.

REVIEWS

We love to hear back from our guests to find out their experience with Beautiful Escapes.

Phoebe & Family, August 2021

We live in the USA and Angela was wonderful throughout the booking process, always timely and courteous in her responses. We were grateful for the flexibility in booking dates which enabled us to make Wild Cherry our base for the duration of our holiday.

Ali and James have created the most beautiful sanctuary in Ripon. The location allows absolute peace and privacy while being just a short walk into town. Ali has thought of every creature comfort, heavenly!

We will recommend BE to our family and friends and would absolutely book with you again!
