It acknowledges present day tourist expectations which manifest themselves here in the form of Centrally Heated En-Suite Guest Bedrooms equipped with Flatscreen LCD/DVD Televisions, Tea and Coffee making facilities,Hairdryers, Radio Alarm Clocks and Wireless Internet Connection, all these facilities with substantial furniture in keeping with the period and, most importantly, comfortable beds. Just five minutes easy walk to the centre of Ripon and a similar time driving from the A1, Ripon is an ideal centre and Crescent Lodge a superb base for attractions such as Ripon Cathedral, Ripon Races, Fountains Abbey, Lightwater Valley, Newby Hall, Ripley Castle and the area generally which is one of outstanding natural beauty.
