We used this apartment as our base to explore the Dales and Moors, and found Ripon to be ideally situated. Private parking was a huge plus. The size of the space was great. We've been touring the UK for many months and wish we could pack up this apartment and take it with us. The bed was one of the best we have slept in, the shower was amazing, and the kitchen and lounge were spacious. Communication with owner was excellent! Our only complaint was we could occasionally smell cigarette smoke from the neighbors. Don't miss Ripon; it is a charming town and the cathedral has some interesting ties to Alice in Wonderland. We simply loved this region and this apartment is one of our favorites. Highly recommend!
