AA Rated 5 Star Farmhouse Bed & Breakfast on a working farm near Ripon
Rooms & Accommodation
Mallard Grange B&B offers four individually styled en suite guest rooms, including the large 'Fox' room in a converted outbuilding with garden views. Each room has a spacious lounge area with armchairs, a super-king bed, and a private bathroom with a walk-in shower. Ground floor rooms are available for guests who require step-free access, and the entire property is adults only for a quiet stay.
Breakfast & Dining
Breakfast is served around a communal farmhouse table in the main house, where guests meet each other and chat with the host. The menu features a full Yorkshire breakfast made with locally sourced produce, including eggs from the farm and honey from the property's own hives. Gluten-free options, vegetarian dishes, and fresh pancakes with lemon and blueberries are available, and guests can also request a custom breakfast delivery time.
Location & Surroundings
The B&B is a 30-minute walk from Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal Deer Park, both Unesco World Heritage sites. Ripon Market Square, with its restaurants and shops, is a 5-minute drive, while Harrogate and York are within 30-50 minutes by car. The Yorkshire Dales National Park offers hiking and cycling routes directly from the property, and the B&B provides free private parking.
Farm & Sustainability
Mallard Grange is a working farm with a 700-year history, where guests can see cattle, sheep, and seasonal flower fields. The property practices regenerative farming and sources ingredients from neighbouring farms, with the host often knowing the farmers personally. Guests can purchase homemade lemon curd, honey, and jam, and in summer they are invited to pick wildflowers from the field.
Guest Experience & Practicalities
The B&B holds an AA Five Star rating and has received consistent guest praise for its spacious rooms, high-quality bedding, and daily housekeeping. Bicycle parking is provided for those exploring the area by bike, and the garden has outdoor furniture and a picnic area. The property is a short drive from Grantley Hall for fine dining and is within easy reach of Ripon's restaurants.
