About Ripon
Though North Yorkshire’s Ripon may be small, this cathedral city certainly packs a big punch. Boasting 1300 years of tradition and community, your stay here is as laid-back or exciting as you make it. You'll find award-winning museums and a magnificent 7th-century gothic cathedral close to the centre of town. Winding streets off the market square lead to eclectic and niche shops – from wine merchants to specialist independent traders...
