Palace Road Residential Park is situated on the periphery of the historical cathedral city of Ripon. Nestling within bucolic surroundings, a compact park home estate for recycled teenagers. We can offer you a lifestyle conducive to your needs. A place where you can in the summer months entertain your visitors on the patio sipping a glass of wine or treat them to a delicious cream tea. Go for a gentle stroll to the town centre market for a little retail therapy whilst your partner does the dusting.

You could change your life forever leave the busy humdrum behind. Be prepared for the retirement you promised yourself where you can fulfil your dreams and aspirations. Unfortunately all of the twenty two park homes are occupied. There are however one or two homes which are being sold privately should you wish to visit the park.
