  Honeybee Cottage was the perfect haven while we moved house.

  Beautifully clean and it was well stocked with everything you could need to make the stay easy and very comfortable.The welcome pack was a wonderful surprise too, great after a long journey it set you up with a nice cup of tea and snack. The home owner Vicky was really helpful and accommodating and we were really grateful for the text reminder for the refuse calendar over Christmas, it was great to see a house manual with such good instructions included too, no scratching your head wondering how anything worked. The cottage is in a great location overlooking the River Ure with a good walk in to town. Ripon itself has easy access to all routes and well covered on the shopping front. Booths supermarket is a particular treat and there are some lovely small independent shops. The Cathedral is glorious and further afield The Druids Temple was surrounded by great woodland walks and views out over the surrounding countryside. I wish we had had more time in better weather to explore further as the cottage make a great base to head out from but we’ll have to leave that for another time.

  We had a brilliant stay at 8 Williamson Drive over New Year.

  This is an outstanding property - spotlessly clean, furnished to a high standard and within a stones throw of the centre of beautiful Ripon. The living room is warm, cosy and comfortable and the kitchen very well equipped with everything you need. The beds are very comfortable and the house was lovely and warm during our stay. Ripon is a great place to visit with plenty going on locally and some lovely walks very close by. Within Ripon we particularly enjoyed visiting The Royal Oak, So Bar and Eats and the Ripon Inn. We would definitely return. If I could change anything at 8 Williamson Drive, it would be to have a proper dining table and chairs. I felt the extra seating in the dining area unnecessary as there are two large sofas in the lounge to easily seat 4 people and it feels like wasted space really which would be better utilised as a proper dining area. There is a fold away table but it was awkward to get the chairs out and they were uncomfortable to sit on. A small niggle in an otherwise faultless holiday home.

  Myself and my wife stayed at this property for a week in early May.

  Upon initially entering it we were immediately impressed and this feeling stayed with us throughout. It is a modern property, in a pleasant and quiet area of the town. The furnishings are modern and attractive, and it is well equipped with everything you are likely to need for your stay. Car parking facilities are excellent, with a reserved space in 2 of the designated parking areas local to the house. We chose to leave our vehicle untouched for the week, but to and fro access would be no problem if preferred. Situation of the house is perfect, being a few minutes walk into the centre of an interesting town in one direction, whilst the opposite direction was only steps away from the riverside and canal with lots of scope for walks. Perfect for us, and plenty of others I would guess. Well recommended.

  Lovely property in a great location.

  Situated in a very quiet residential area but only a couple of minutes walk into the centre of Ripon. Good to have a choice of walks for our dog especially with the canal being very close by. Also great to have a choice of parking spaces. If you do bring your dog then the rear courtyard is totally enclosed and dog friendly. (Be aware that next door do have a small dog as well but this was not a problem for us). Everything provided that you need for a great holiday - my only suggestion would be to have bigger bath towels! We would most definitely return to this property again.

  The property is lovely and has a lovely view.

  The kitchen is very small and the bench at the table caused many stubbed toes. Perhaps a small stool for a third seat at the table would help with that. It would have been useful to let us know that the key safe was at the back of the property as it was dark when we arrived. No details about rubbish and recycling were left for us. Always happy to recycle if instructions left. The parking is on a very steep slope. It was a little difficult to get out of the car on the drive. There is parking on the road but a bit of a squeeze. Location is good. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
