Local services in Ripley, Bishop Thornton & Markington

Oakwood Park Business Centre has access to a range of essential amenities, the majority of which are located in the picturesque village of Ripley, which is just a couple of minutes drive by car.  Ripley is famous for not only it’s ice-cream but also the Castle and Gardens which are a popular tourist attraction.  The village has:

  • A Post Office
  • Hutchinsons Butchers
  • Farm Shop
  • Ripley Store (sandwiches, snacks, ice-cream, off license)
  • Hopkins Porter (for sandwiches and snacks)
  • Gift Shop
  • Boars Head Hotel, Bar & Restaurant
  • T N Scratchard & Son – MOT & Vehicle Repairs

The nearest ’local’ is The Chequers Inn in Bishop Thornton which serves traditional food, with quick service from Wednesday to Sunday.

For client entertainment we recommend both the Boars Head Hotel in Ripley and also the Hob Green Hotel located nearby.

The Hob Green Hotel  near Markington (which is just 1.5 miles from Oakwood Park) offers exclusive discounted rates on food and accommodation to all occupants of Oakwood Park Business Centre.

We are also in the process of securing a daily sandwich delivery service to the business centre.
