Visiting Ripon
Ripon is a small cathedral city residing in the centre of North Yorkshire’s stunning country landscapes. As the third smallest city in England, much smaller than many towns, in fact, Ripon exudes a particularly twee atmosphere, helped by its ambling rivers, cobbled city centre streets, and wealth of history. Located near the refined market town of Harrogate, the treasured Fountains Abbey, and the Nidderdale Area of Natural Beauty, it is the perfect spot from which to explore North Yorkshire’s highlights.
