“A mixed bag”

We fully agree with other reviews regarding the location and cleanliness of the property, it was spot on! The owners clearly take great pride in their property and many little extras are provided. In that sense it was a real home from home. If you wish to use the twin beds however, it would be advisable to stipulate this on booking. The website pictures give the impression that both beds are made up, but we ended up using 2 rooms. Another reviewer has mentioned internal noise and our first night was horrendous. We were woken at 2am by doors banging, loud voices and even louder music. This lasted until 3.30am. The music then stopped but the occupants continued to shout and bang doors loudly until 5am. It appears the occupants were then away for the remainder of the week as all was quiet. We fully understand that the owners have no responsibility for this, but feel we should mention it for other visitors to the apartment.

“A cosy little home away from home”

We had a wonderful two week stay in the apartment. It is beautifully located between the river Skell and Ripon Canal and it is only a five to eight minute walk into town. The flat is ideal for families as there are loads of things to do like feeding the ducks (duck food is sold by Richard if you stand in front of the entrance door and turn slightly right) and playing at (and in) the river. Directly in front of the house is a perfect little farm shop called "The Forge" where you can buy yummy sandwiches, cakes, milk, eggs, etc. You should see Ripon Cathdral. It is very impressive. The flat itself is very cosy and offers wonderful views. You can hear the bells from Ripon Cathedral which is beautiful. We stayed for two weeks and even got the linen and towels changed after the first week plus we had vine, cookies and other goodies waiting for us when we arrived.

“The downside to this apartment was ...”

The downside to this apartment was the road noise which can be heard in the bedrooms during the night.The double glazing clearly needs upgrading and also noise from the apartment below a young mother with two children under five years could clearly be heard shouting at them when they were crying all of which can be very distressing to listen to. On viewing the visitors book other people staying there had had the Same problem and on this basis we would not stay there again or recommend it to anyone else.

“The apartment was perfect for us, a ...”

The apartment was perfect for us, a real "home from home". We had everything we needed and the flat was very comfortable (beds, chairs, temperature). We initially had a problem with the TV; on contacting the owner, he was very helpful and quickly sorted out the problem. Location was excellent too - on the canal for walking; close to the cathedral and shops / cafes.

“Don't forget the Old Peculiar”

Long way up the stairs,well worth the effort. Everything is right,the right kitchen equipment,the right amount of storage In the bedrooms,the TV and DVD are right. No balcony,but open the door and you could be anywhere in the Med,the sun streams in the evening,with the advantage of Theakstones beer brewed just down the road. This apartment is a real gem,clean,fresh,modern,within walking distance of the everything in Ripon . Ripon is lovely,the cathedral,the spa gardens,the market place, everything,even Sainsburys fits in the big picture Book this apartment before others fill it

“Hidden Gem”

This property is very well maintained and had everything you could wish for in a holiday let. It was clean and comfortable and very well placed for the centre of Ripon.

“Amazing...home from home!”

Wow. Cannot fault one thing about this rental. We went to visit family in Ripon and could not have wished to stay anywhere better. Beautiful position on the canal,5 minute walk to Ripon shops and restaurants. Beautifully decorated and clean throughout. Nothing is missing from this rental. The welcome pack was a lovely gesture. Plenty of space the moment you open the front door. Lovely size bedrooms,will sleep 4 easy .Lovely and warm and cosy. The most comfiest bed and bedding i have ever known when staying away from home. Excellent position,excellent rental,excellent 4 days away . Would definately recommend and will not hesitate to stay here again.

On arrival fresh flowers were on the table together with a welcome basket containing bread, cheese biscuits and wine, milk was in the fridge, all very thoughtful touches., even a selection of books and DVD,s were provided. An excellent holiday apartment.

“Perfect”

Don't be misled by Sykes' three tick rating. I stayed in this delightful apartment for a few days restorative time away from a hectic life and it's absolutely perfect. Impeccably clean; well thought out; comfortable; practical and with everything you could ever possibly need and more. A lovely welcome pack of bread, cheese, biscuits and wine were here on arrival, as well as a pint of milk in the fridge and fresh flowers on the table; toiletries provided, as well as a few other basics; free wifi available, as well as DVD player (integral in the tv - took me a few days to discover it!). The location is fantastic, overlooking the the canal basin from the sitting room balcony and the cathedral from the bedrooms, whence you can also catch sight of the river. Walking distance from the cathedral, other sites of interest and the town and market square, with major supermarkets close by - one entered from the market square and another just 5 minutes drive away. It's on the top floor of a building with a shared front door and entrance hallway, but I didn't hear any of the other residents at any time during my stay, except when I met them in the stair well a couple of times. The flat itself is very bright and comfortable. It's entirely suitable for one or two people or for a family with two children, though might be a little cramped for four adults. Really, I think, worth more than Sykes' three tick rating. Five on here for me. I will most definitely be back.
