Ripley Castle has been home to the Ingilby family for twenty-six generations, and reflects each generation with its rich history. The original tower contains memorabilia from the battle of Marston Moor after which Oliver Cromwell stayed and this combines with the elegance of the Georgian era with fine chandeliers, family portraits and furniture collected over the Centuries. Visitors will enjoy the guided tours which bring history to life with amusing anecdotes of the Ingilby family.
The Castle overlooks the deer park and lakes designed by Capability Brown, and the magnificent gardens are a kaleidoscope of colour through every season with walled kitchen gardens and hot houses. Ripley is an original Estate village and visitors will enjoy the individual gift shops, tea rooms and a fine delicatessen in the Courtyard.
THE BOAR’S HEAD HOTEL
The Boar’s Head, at the heart of the Ripley Castle Estate, is one of the Great Inns of Britain. This is an Inn with high-quality accommodation, a bar for locals, as well as for visitors to have a pint in, and dining facilities where you don’t have to wear a tie or talk in hushed whispers over a sculpture on a plate! We believe that staying with us is an experience, with the emphasis on quality, fun, individuality and informality!
Each bedroom is individually decorated and king-sized beds enable you to lose your partner in the night. Catamarans have been thoughtfully
provided in the bathroom so that you can push the boat out during your stay. This is a great destination from which to explore the best of Yorkshire.
