The cottage is located within beautiful grounds and we would recommend the walk around the lake and woodland. The location does require a drive to places to eat and drink, which is only a minor gripe and the mobile Internet signal isn't the best, but you have to bear in mind the rural area and lack of phone masts. It is a good opportunity for a digRead moreital detox! :) Hide

Lovely cosy accommodation. However, bad time of year (November) to see this property and the grounds at its best. I think the walks within the grounds during the spring and summer months would be great. Unfortunately we had LOTS of rain and cold weather. Good location for seeing the sights of Ripon, Harrogate and York. We also managed a race meetinRead moreg at Wetherby which was only a 30 minute drive away. Even though we knew it was not available, we missed Wi-Fi more than we thought we would!! Hide

This is an excellent hideaway for two people. Very close to Ripon and only 6 miles from Harrogate and Knaresborough, it is perfectly positioned for touring this part of North Yorkshire. Jayne, who is the day to day contact, is terrific and very helpful. One word of warning; there are some very low beams in the bedroom and entrance to the en-suite, Read moreanyone over 5'6" needs to take care. Hide

Chauffeurs Loft: Hollings Hall. Small but very comfortable accommodation which suited my needs. It was reasonably well equipped and spotlessly clean. I was met by the host on arrival and made to feel very welcome. It was well situated and very private. I'd have no hesitation in recommending it as a place to stay for singles or couples.
