"This holiday property is an absolute gem, comfy, clean with everything one could possibly need for a weeks holiday ."
It is in the town center & a few minutes walk to most shops & all the amenities. The piano was also a bonus for those fortunate enough to play, which I was Hopefully will return again for a longer stay.

"Lovely quant cottage."
A bit small for 2 people. Good location. They had thought of everything,nothing missing.
-
"This is a lovely little cottage, which despite being a stones throw from the city centre is very tranquil."
I would recommend this place to anyone wishing to visit this fabulous city We will definitely return to Westgate mews

"Hi we had a lovely time at the cottage, it’s a fine base to get around from."
On saying that plenty on offer in Ripon and good places to eat, we really enjoyed our time at the cottage.
-
"Brilliantly located little cottage."
Really well equipped with lots of useful things especially in the kitchen. This cottage had everything we needed for a week's stay.
-
"A lovely little cottage, in the very centre of Ripon but so tucked away that it is very quiet and private."
nicely furnished in an individual style. I can thoroughly recommend it. The only drawback is the lack of parking outside although it is easy enough to find spaces in neighbouring streets.
We’re really glad you were able to come back for another stay and enjoy time in Ripon. Property Owner

"A delightful cottage, peaceful yet very central to all the local amenities."
Well appointed with thoughtful touches and cosy. A property I would definitely consider returning to. Slight downside is the non-availability of immediate parking but I always found spaces in Church Lane.

"This Cottage feels like home from the very first moment."
It has all the little touches of a home rather than a commercial enterprise. For instance there is adequate lighting, the kitchen is stocked with all the utensils you would expect at home and the decor is personal and individual. The situation is ideal, secluded and quiet, yet in the very middle of town and unexpectedly there is a lovely little garden to sit out in. I have had one of the best Sykes holidays in all my years of booking Cottages and very much hope to return.

"Lovely, quirky pieds a terre in a quiet location very close to the town centre and an easy walk from the bus station."
The cottage had absolutely everything one could need. The kitchen had such a good array of utensils that if I'd been so inclined, I could have cooked a four-course meal! The bed was very comfortable -so important after busy days enjoying oneself. The sweet little garden space was a boon. Handwritten notes meant I felt a real connection to Anna and Naomi who respectively own and run the cottage. This is the only place I've ever stayed with a piano - though, fortunately for the neighbours, I can't play.

"A cosy little cottage right in the heart of the city."
Everything we could have wanted was provided. a lovely sunny sitting out area.
-
"Lovely location."
Hidden away behind the shops in town. Loads eateries on the doorstep. Parking was no problem even though no parking at property. Free parking on the town square from 18;00 until 08:00. We will go back there.

"This was a lovely cottage which had everything you could possibly need."
Great location. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
-
"Bijoux property surprisingly quiet."
South facing sitting area. A few minutes walk from centre with numerous restaurants/pubs to choose from. Parking was a concern but should not deter. Free/24 Hr Blossomgate (despite so few spaces and poor reviews) provided space when we needed, with some additional chances in adjoining roads. In extremis cathedral car park allows leave and return so an all day ticket covers flexibly. Small but good Thursday market. Thoroughly recommend.

The property
Set in the heart of Ripon, just outside of the Yorkshire Dales National Park is this charming, single-storey, mid-terrace cottage, 3 Westgate Mews.
Perfect as a romantic retreat or a base for a solo traveller, this enchanting cottage offers a garden with seating and a quaint interior, while being a stone's throw away from the local amenities.
Arriving at the cottage, make your way through the garden and into the home where you will come across the snug/sitting room, complete with a piano, Tv and a selection of books, providing you with an alternative evening of entertainment.
From here, the kitchen has all you need to cook hearty meals to fuel your days out, as well as a dining room, for when it is time to unwind.
Moving through the cottage, the double bedroom invites you to rest your head before another adventurous day, while the bathroom is there for freshening up after a day of walking, or before you pop out to one of the local restaurants.
Outside, be sure to take advantage of the garden space, home to a bistro set so you can dine alfresco in the warmer months.
When you are ready to explore, why not make your way down to the Workhouse Museum, set in a restored Victorian workhouse, or if you want to make the most of the weather, enjoy a picnic in the nearby Ripon Spa Gardens.
A scenic car journey will take you to Harrogate, beautiful town with plenty of things to do in the area, including visiting the Valley Gardens, Mother Shipton's Cave, and Killinghall Moor Country Park; you can also enjoy a day of pampering at one of the town's many spas, such as the Turkish Baths Harrogate.
Further afield, you can head into the city of York for a day of shopping or make your way towards the coast for a day at the popular resorts of Whitby and Scarborough.
Whatever your style of adventure, choose 3 Westgate Mews as your base.
