The Aviary House
Ripon, Yorkshire
The Aviary House is a compact cottage in Ripon, Yorkshire, sleeping two and ideal for a couple wanting a quiet base with some good days out close at hand. Lightwater Valley is just 1.8 miles away for a livelier day, while the Workhouse Museum and The Courthouse Museum, both around 5 miles off, offer a more reflective look at local history. Thirsk station, 10.2 miles away, is the nearest train link for those arriving without a car. It's a well-placed little retreat for exploring this part of Yorkshire at an easy pace.
