Just returned from a 3 night stay at The White Horse, Ripon and couldn't be happier! We will definitely return for future stays! The staff couldn't be more friendly or helpful! We had a really amazing room in the stable courtyard, it was big, had a double and single bed, loads of matching furniture with a huge bathroom! We we surprised and very pleased! It was great value! And pet friendly, we took our rescue dog and even his massive crate didn't impose on the room. It's a shame they are not serving breakfast but Spoons and Olivers Pantry are just a few steps away. Location is brilliant, right in the town! And there's free parking on site which is a massive plus! With the blinds down the room was virtually pitch dark which is exactly what I need to sleep! The bed springs were noisy but not uncomfortable, the shower was lovely and big, decor was tasteful, ample wardrobes and drawers, clean carpets and bedding, all in all one of the nicest places we've stayed and we will definitely be back!
Tell you what, since the new owners took over in 2025, this stunning little pub has taken on a whole new life. The staff are really welcoming and friendly. The vibe when you go in is now totally chilled and vacant of any anti-social behaviour. It seems to have attracted a whole new type of people. Those just looking for a good night out in a nice charming environment. They have tonnes of board games and a cool little area where you can play those board games. I think this is a nice little touch. It’s different, but that’s why it works. This has become my new local now as I just love the chemistry that the place gives off 💯💪
