Hotels in Ripon
Ripon is a cathedral city located in North Yorkshire, England, and is one of the oldest cities in the country. Known for its rich history, which dates back over 1,300 years, Ripon is home to the stunning Ripon Cathedral, an architectural marvel with its origins in the 7th century. The city exudes a mix of historical gravitas and modern convenience, encapsulated in its narrow streets filled with quaint shops, restaurants, and cafes. The Market Square serves as the heart of the city, where a weekly market takes place, offering a variety of local produce and handmade goods. Ripon is also famous for its horn-blower ceremony, a tradition maintained since 886 AD, where the horn is blown at 9:00 PM every night at each corner of the Market Square to "set the watch," making it one of England's oldest ongoing traditions.
In terms of local attractions, Ripon offers a wealth of options. Ripon Cathedral, with its ancient crypt and intricate stone carvings, is a must-visit for anyone interested in architecture and history. For those more inclined towards natural beauty, the nearby Studley Royal Park, which includes the ruins of Fountains Abbey, offers a splendid day out. This UNESCO World Heritage Site blends natural beauty with architectural elegance, featuring water gardens and classical statues in addition to the abbey ruins. The Ripon Racecourse is another place of interest, offering an exciting day of horse racing for enthusiasts and casual visitors alike. For families, the Lightwater Valley theme park is close by, offering rides and attractions suitable for all ages. The city also has several museums, such as the Ripon Museum Trust, which comprises the Workhouse Museum, the Prison & Police Museum, and the Courthouse Museum, each offering insights into different aspects of Victorian life.
The strategic location of Ripon allows for the exploration of a wide range of other towns and attractions in North Yorkshire. Harrogate, renowned for its Turkish baths and public gardens, lies to the south and offers a more cosmopolitan experience. To the west is Skipton, also known as the "Gateway to the Dales," famous for its castle and market. Northward lies Thirsk, another market town that serves as a gateway to the North York Moors. Further afield, but easily accessible for day trips, are the towns of Knaresborough, with its stunning viaduct and riverside walks, and Richmond, known for its castle and Georgian architecture. Each of these nearby towns adds a unique flavour to the region, making Ripon a central point for exploring the diverse landscapes and cultures of North Yorkshire.
