Eight places are listed in Ripon, and they vary more in size than in style. Several sleep four, one sleeps three, one sleeps five, one sleeps six, and two take ten or fourteen guests. Most have a hot tub, and many add a sauna, a spa bath or a swimming pool. The cheapest night found is well below the usual one, so it is worth checking dates before ruling Ripon out on cost. The largest group places are the ones to compare carefully, since a big house can cost far more per night than a small lodge, even if the cost per person looks sensible.

Ripon is a small cathedral city on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales and Nidderdale, and the lodges around it suit couples, families and small groups who want a hot tub and a base for walking or day trips. The choice is compact, with eight places, but most are sized for four to six people, with a few much larger ones for groups.
Hot tubs are close to standard here, and half the places also have a sauna. Log burners turn up in a little over half, and three in four accept pets in some form. Nightly prices are usually on the higher side for a short break, though one or two places come in noticeably cheaper than the rest. One very large house sits far above everything else, so the typical night is a better guide than the top end. Ratings are high, at around 9 out of 10, which suggests guests are happy with what they find.
Hot tubs and barbecues are the most common features, found in seven of the eight places. Gardens come next, then log burners in five. Sauna is available in four places, a swimming pool in three and a spa bath in two. The usual night is similar for most of these features, so adding a hot tub does not seem to push the price up much here. The exception is the high chair, where the figure is inflated by one very large house. If a sauna or pool matters to you, filter for it early, because the options are limited.
| Feature | Places | Share | Usual night |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hot tub | 7 | 88% | £234 |
| BBQ | 7 | 88% | £234 |
| Garden | 6 | 75% | £272 |
| Log burner / fireplace | 5 | 62% | £232 |
| Sauna | 4 | 50% | £245 |
| Swimming pool | 3 | 38% | £232 |
| Spa bath | 2 | 25% | £200 |
| High chair | 2 | 25% | £1,454 |
Most of the choice sits in the sleeps 3 to 4 range, with four places that typically have one bedroom. That makes Ripon a natural fit for couples and small families rather than big groups. Larger places exist, including one that sleeps fourteen, but there are few of them. Groups should book early and compare the cost per person against several smaller lodges.
| Sleeps | Places | Bedrooms | Usual night | Per guest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeps 3-4 | 4 | 1 | £245 | £61 |
Prices are steady through the winter, with November and December usually a little dearer than March. January and February are the dearest months in this run, while March is the cheapest. April edges back up slightly. Availability tells a similar story: autumn and winter dates are more booked, and March and April have noticeably more free nights. A week costs more in winter than outside it.
| Month | Usual night | Nights still free |
|---|---|---|
| November 2026 | £258 | 48% |
| December 2026 | £258 | 54% |
| January 2027 | £285 | 55% |
| February 2027 | £285 | 56% |
