We knew this place was special from the moment we drove into the grounds. Service was fantastic and our room was overlooking the garden, which was beautiful. Lots of character in the building. We wish we had our evening meal there after tasting the breakfast the next day. Truly excellent and a real treat.

We only stayed one night and discovered the taster menu at dinner which was readily booked (luckily for us). The food was superb and the sommelier did an excellent job of matching wines. Loved the take on a taster type breakfast too! Will be revisiting at some point that's for sure!

Stayed for one night and the kitchen was closed but loads of options close by in town. Breakfast was amazing however and worth the trip. They opened breakfast early for me as i had an early start. Hotel was period in nature and some things are tired. Bed mattress was thin and awful, but the room was great. Molton Brown toiletries and plenty of good towels. Staff very helpful and friendly. Overall, worth the money and would return without hesitation.

Impressive building and great to park outside. Staff and breakfast were exceptional. Our room was small stuffy and awful decor. Could do with some updating and mattress very thin, shower only suitable for anyone under 5ft3. Really enjoyed the breakfastt and all the staff were lovely.

Great stay right in the centre of Ripon next to the beautiful cathedral Unfortunately the day we were there the hotel restaurant wasn’t open but we found a nice Italian restaurant round the corner Breakfast was very nice and different to what most b&b’s do Would definitely stay there again when we next visit Ripon
