Nestled in the picturesque village of Ripley, Ripley Castle is a historic gem that has been owned by the Ingilby family for over 700 years. The castle itself is a magnificent example of medieval and Georgian architecture, with its beautifully preserved battlements, walled gardens, and ornamental lakes. For landscape photographers, the estate’s 700 acres offer a plethora of natural beauty including woodlands and deer parks. The castle’s interiors also provide an exquisite setting for capturing the intricacies of historical design, from grand staircases to intricate woodwork. When visiting, don’t miss the chance to photograph the castle’s reflections in the water for a dreamy shot. The estate is generally open to the public, though there may be some restrictions for private events, so it’s advisable to check ahead. A tripod and a wide-angle lens would be beneficial for capturing both the expansive landscapes and interior details.
