MICKLEY BED AND BREAKFAST

Welcome to Mickley Bed & Breakfast

Mickley B&B is a luxury Bed and Breakfast 5 miles north west of the historical city of Ripon, which is, we believe, the oldest and 4th smallest city in England and tradition has it that the Town Crier blows his horn every evening at 21:00 to signify the setting of the watch, this has been done every night for well over 1000 years!

Mickley is one of the most traditional and unspoilt villages in Nidderdale's AONB and is situated between the North York Moors and The Yorkshire Dales.

A home from home family run Bed and Breakfast

We opened in 2012, having converted two of our spare rooms into two very comfortable and well equipped B&B bedrooms. We have very high standards and our guests' wellbeing and comfort is our priority, nothing is too much trouble for us and we try to ensure that our guests enjoy their time here being looked after in the manner in which they would like to become accustomed!

Stargazing

For all astronomers (and all non-astronomers), we have no street lights in Mickley so no light pollution. On a cloudless evening you can almost touch the moon and stars. Although I don't think we are in an official 'Dark Sky Area' it is certainly worth bringing your telescope when you come and stay. 3 miles away in Grewelthorpe, we have Lime Tree Observatory and Planetarium which is well worth a visit whether you are an astronomer or not - but please telephone them to book in first.

Children and Dogs

We are a Child-Friendly and Dog-Friendly B&B, but please advise of bringing either or both when booking. We have a high chair, a changing mat and books and toys you can borrow, all free of charge. We also have a dog's water bowl, dinner bowl and dog towels you can borrow.

There is room for a couple of children to be with their parents in The Amber Suite, a nominal charge will be made for this - please ask. We do not have camp beds so parents will have to provide sleeping bags, pillows and camp beds for their children.

Breakfast at Mickley's

'Breakfast at Mickley's' is definitely worth getting out of bed for! Cooked to order, from pan to plate to guest; it is certainly a tailored breakfast experience you will not forget. Or if you are not a Full English breakfast type of person, we could give you a lighter continental breakfast, which if you felt like being spoilt you could always have as breakfast-in-bed.

Wherever possible we get local ingredients, sometimes we have to go slightly further afield but we always try to remain in Yorkshire. Should you require something extra for breakfast, like fresh fruit, please just ask when booking your room.

If you would like a newspaper please order when booking and it can usually be delivered in time to read over breakfast; but if Menzies Distribution is late in delivering to the paper shop, it will be late arriving with us. We will have to charge you cost for your paper and a little extra for the delivery, which, at the moment (April 2023), is 60p a day.
