Riponの洞窟・トップ4

Fountains Hall is a hidden gem within Studley Royal Park. You will love its historic charm, built from the stones of the nearby abbey, and its connection to the stunning Elizabethan and Jacobean architecture. Only parts of the hall are open to explore, but the exhibitions provide a fascinating glimpse into its past. The real highlight, though, is the setting. With water gardens, roaming deer, and the ruins of Fountains Abbey just steps away, it’s a perfect mix of history and natural beauty. A fair bit of walking is involved, but most find it well worth it. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Fountains Abbey – it adds character, history, and scenic views to the day.

Great coffee at grindhus

Very beautiful woodland walk.

Superb off road cycle track, busy, great pub in Ripley the Boars Head.

The church dates to the late 12th or early 13th century, but very little remains of that early medieval building. The church was comprehensively rebuilt in the 15th century and restored in 1859.

A very impressive building. This is actually a hotel and very dearly priced, I am sure! The estate is a 20,000-acre one and one of the largest privately owned estates in England (which is quite possibly saying something...) The hotel itself benefits from 200 acres of gardens. You're probably not going in... but it's nonetheless a fabulous building to look at: it has been owned by the Cunliffe-Lister family since the 1880s.

On a bike - Best to approach from Church St & The Bull Inn as steps at end of small path from North.

Mowbray Castle is a mock ruin. It was built in the mid 1700s as a feature within the picturesque woodland. It was probably designed as a folly to be viewed from a distance.
