We stayed at the Boar's Head when getting married at Ripley Castle on 28 November 2009. Our room was charming, the breakfast was very good and the staff were friendly and very helpful. Particular thanks to the receptionist who found my lost wedding bouquet for me! This hotel is small but perfectly formed, and my now-husband tells me that his... more

We have just returned from our third stay this year at this lovely hotel and once again we couldn't fault it. We stayed in the annexe again in a room with a lovely big, warm bathroom and a huge roll top bath, fluffy towels and bathrobes. We ate in the bistro and the food was excellent, the atmosphere was lively... more

What a break, we came for a wedding but added a further 2 nights as we could just not be drawn away....The castle was a memorable venue and the Hotel provided us with a hugely comfortable base to unwind. we really enjoyed the food, setting, unobtrusive service and stunning location.... a real find we will return. Rooms are a little... more

Cathedral Room. We revisited the Boars Head to celebrate a special anniversary. It was a surprise for my husband and I chose it because our first (and only other visit) was truly memorable. Then the room was delightful and the food was fantastic - hardly to have been matched over the years.The bed was very comfortable but the room looked... more

I went on buisness with a group of colleague and am so happy that I have booked to return with my wife, in 2 weeks time. The quality of food is the highlight, really well cooked and of the highest quality. The service is really attentive. One of my colleagues needed very particular requirements, which were all dealt with, without... more

we went with a group for 3 days of pure heaven, the staff made us feel so at ease and nothing was any trouble at all. the food and service were great with some fantastic wines. As a large group it was so warming to be treated and fed the wat we were. It is a stunning location, and the... more

We have just returned from a short break with friends from The Boars Head in Ripley and we all agreed that it was a great hotel situated perfectly to visit Harrogate and the stunning Yorkshire Dales.From check -in to check-out nothing was too much trouble for the very friendly and attentive staff.You can choose to eat in the main dining... more

A one night stay at the Hotel was spoilt by a rather sad looking bedroom and with the poor quality food which was served in the main dining room. The Dinner started off well enough with a pre-starter 'chefs' appetiser of a really good tomato based soup then from there on it was all downhill. The starter of tasteless pressed... more

This review has no reflection on Ripley Castle which is a fantastic wedding venue, they were excellant, both facilities and staff. But The Boars Head! - The management, (was there any?) completely let us down and deprived us of what should have been a lovely experience, getting ready for our sons special day. Our room booked for an 11.00hrs check... more
