Visit Websitefor more informationThorpe lodge is an elegant listed Georgian house providing wonderful Bed & Breakfast accommodation. The colourful rooms are full of antiques, masses of pictures, ornaments & comfortable soft furniture adding up to the quintessential informal English country house look par excellence. The house is right in the middle of the county of North Yorkshire, at the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, about two miles south of Ripon, and is ideal for a luxurious and relaxing break.
Delicious breakfasts, from simple to full English, are served in the sunroom overlooking the courtyard during the summer & in the colder months in the winter dining room with its eclectic picture collection. A list of local pubs & restaurants serving fine English food will be supplied or sumptuous dinners at Thorpe Lodge can be booked by arrangement. Plenty of books & videos ensure there never need be a dull moment. Beyond the main lawn is the walled garden, with a line of ancient fruit trees, a swimming pool, the rose garden and a yellow border which creates a wonderful burst of summer colour. Guests can venture further afield to enjoy a wonderful North Yorkshire break at Harrogate, Leeds or York where you will find an array of shops, restaurants, galleries and museums.
The Yellow room is one of two large luxury guest bedrooms in the South Wing. Juliet has put to good use all her experience gained during years as an interior designer for some of the country's leading hotels and both rooms have every imaginable comfort. This North Yorkshire B&B has spacious sitting areas with television, video, hot drinks tray and a size-able desk. The Green room like the Yellow room has its own attractive en-suite bathroom with a bath & shower. Both rooms can be arranged with twin beds or a king size double & are furnished and decorated to make our guests feel welcome, comfortable & at home.
The gardens are opened once a year for the National Gardens Scheme, but group visits are welcomed at any time by arrangement. Lunches, dinners & teas can be provided, as well as facilities for private dinner parties or small meetings. More information on request. Dogs are welcome. While guests are requested not to smoke in the bedrooms, there is a private sitting room with a television where cigarettes may be enjoyed in peace.
