Escape to the Yorkshire countryside with a stay at The Stables, a beautifully restored 19th-century stable block nestled in a private courtyard just a short stroll from Ripon’s historic city centre. This two-bedroom retreat blends heritage charm with modern comfort across two stylish floors — the ideal base for couples, families or friends exploring the Yorkshire Dales, Moors, and beyond. 

Thoughtfully converted to an exceptional standard, The Stables offers generous accommodation for up to 4 guests. Both bedrooms feature luxurious king-size beds, cosy throws, and characterful decor. Downstairs, a relaxing lounge with a smart TV and feature fireplace invites cosy evenings in, while the well-equipped kitchen-diner upstairs makes self-catering effortless and sociable. 

Step outside to your private courtyard, complete with outdoor dining area, covered hot tub, BBQ, and fire pit – perfect for balmy summer evenings. Beyond the courtyard, guests enjoy access to expansive shared gardens and private parking for two cars. Part of Hutton Mount Retreats, this cottage shares its setting with another lovingly curated holiday home (The Himba), making it ideal for groups travelling together but wishing to retain their own space.
