Steam train on a regular line. A spectacular day out. It’s a regular line and engine, now maintained by a volunteer organisation. There are both steam and diesel engines. The carriage has a great bar with local beers. The shops at the station have interesting gifts. People are super friendly.

Small,but perfectly formed line,with immaculately preserved stations. Staff very personable,great carriage stock,and excellent value for money,with a great addition of the museum,adding to the all round experience. Fantastic to be on the iconic platform, as featured in the Railway Children,and of course,the quaint smallest station in Britain. My son is a railway enthusiast,and adored it. Highly recommended

Really enjoyable train ride. Good views. Travelled in a carriage that didn't have a bar, however when stopping at Keighley and Oxenhope, there's enough time to get off and grab a drink. Great for kids too. Some carriages are accessible for prams. Would advise getting on earlier, we got off in the evening and it was getting busy

I myself recently re-visited the historically renowned keighley & worth valley railway on saturday 8th of November 2025 (with my P.A. accompanying me), we travelled by train from morley/leeds all the way up to keighley... went up the steps and across back in time once again as we descended onto platforms 3 & 4 for the heritage train bound for oxenhope, Throughout my latest revisit to west yorkshire's branch line heritage railway, We checked out the successfully uniquely restored old water tower/column on platform 4 - which I consider a splendid site to behold - whilst we waited for the oxenhope-bound passenger train, which was hauled by that brilliantly uplifting ex-LMS stanier black five tender locomotive number 44932 that gave us (and the rest of the other passengers) an enjoyable train journeying up the valley of the river behind the KWVR's very name (as well as it's nature), It was great revisiting all the stations along the line, especially Ingrow (west), Damems, Oakworth, Haworth, and of course the outstanding Oxenhope - from where we watched the brilliantly steaming balck five run-round it's train bound for the return journey back down to keighley, I also took plenty of photos, well, quite a lot... along the line, especially safely from carriage window, for whom I do hope the KWVR itself really likes them, as I hear by share some as part of my latest review on west yorkshire's branch line heritage railway. Hope to come back & revisit the KWVR someday.

Booked the Haworth Haddock and had a fabulous time. Steam train from Oxenhope to Keighley, fish & chips, on board bar and the brilliant Night Patrol played on the platform. You can pick your tickets up early which allows you to travel the line during the day. Staff are lovely, they all work hard to make sure you have a good night. Fabulous to see such enthusiasm. Well worth a visit but if you get the chance for one of their themed events definitely book it!

£16 for full line return £23 for all day hop on, hop off Lovely journey with picturesque views. Some journeys are diesel, others steam. Check which ones but some have hot drinks and snacks available on board too.

A lovely day out. Diesel and steam were running. The engine sheds were open and very informative. All the staff working that day were friendly and helpful. We bought a Rover ticket which allowed us to hop off at station's along the line.

What a brilliant and beautiful place. I am a carer for a boy with disabilities who is not easily entertained or kept engaged enough to not want to leave place after 2 hours, Canon hall was different. Greeted by a lovely lady called Rebecca who scanned our ticket we booked online. Rebecca kindly and clearly explained about the pumpkin patch and the activities on the brochure given to you. Rebecca also gave me a great heads up about the free parking for care assistants - honestly really helpful annd genuine advice from her. The little boy I Look after enjoyed every section. - The goats -the sheep ( sheep racing was his favourite) - watching the cow get moved about - all the other animals -the two different park sections - the pumpkin patch -the pumpkin carving - anddddddd a soft play area ?!? We were spoilt for choice. Spent 4 hours here, could have been a lot longer if we didn’t have to get home. On our way out we also bumped into the lovely Rebecca again who interacted brilliantly with the little boy I look after and explained to us the best way to get out ( give that woman a raise she was great). Canon hall farm is a beautiful, scenic place to come to, and most staff are friendly and genuine. I recommend it highly 👍

I took my daughter there for her birthday and we loved it. We enjoyed seeing the animal. I watched a sheep race. They have a indoor area and outdoor area. They're really good the food was fresh and well served. I do recommend this place

The parking was really big and more than enough spaces. We pre paid online. The farm is fantastic, it's well set out and enough for all ages to enjoy. The animals are well looked After and the surroundings are well cared for. Love the farm shop. Definitely will be back again. You could take your own food and leave it in your car until needed, also cafe well laid out, clean and has a play area for. Kiddies.

Beautiful mature trees... plenty of space for dogs to run around and play off lead. Very dog-friendly all round! It can be busy on nice days, but there's plenty of parking, especially in the top car park. A great destination for family members of all ages.

This place has been on my bucket list for such a long time. What a gem! I could’ve have walked around three times instead of twice. Visited with my teenage son and hubby. We all loved it. Staff are friendly. The lemon drizzle style ice cream was AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS 😋 The chips are delightful. The shop was great. But the highlight for us all was all the fabulous animals. Piglets, chickens, sheep, meerkats, alpacas, Guinea pigs, reptiles, cows, goats, reindeer. I could go on and on. The animal feed was cheap and loved by the sheep and cows. I was disappointed that we couldn’t get closer to the animals but it was still a fantastic day and I didn’t want it to end. The paths are well maintained. The animals look so happy and well looked after. I was sad to leave, especially as we’d not seen farmer Dave or Rob, but maybe next time as I will be back.

Really enjoyed our visit here and so did the grandchildren who proudly left with their pumpkins, had cake and coffee in the lucky pup and really enjoyed that also, next time I will stay over at one of the local hotels and take a closer look at Barnsley. Really enjoyable visit and will be back.

What an excellent place to visit, will definitely be returning. The set up is great you have the chance to buy animal food and feed certain animals. It’s a great place to take the kids with lots for them to do. We ate in The White Bull and the food was amazing, the farm shop is also a great place to go with an extensive range of local produce. Well done Cannon Hall Farm.

A great day out for all. Beautiful gardens, surrounded by stunning scenery and extraordinary sculptures. Well worth a visit. The gardens are situated in a valley so you need to be fairly fit to walk down and back but the slopes and steps make it possible even for older visitors.

Loved it here. Beautiful park full of loads of amazing sculptures. Lots of areas to explore. I particularly enjoyed the William Kentridge exhibition and the chapel too. Highly recommended and look forward to my next visit.

A random day out, selected by my daughter. I had never heard of the place but found it really enjoyable. The day we went was early November, very misty with a slight drizzle toward the end if our time, this actually made the atmosphere quite eerie. £9.50 entrance fee seemed fair. We only had a few hours so want to go back probably on a sunny day as there is a lot more to explore.

Yorkshire Sculpture Park is a wonderful place to explore, with amazing sculptures set in beautiful, peaceful surroundings. It’s easy to spend hours wandering through the open spaces, enjoying the artwork and relaxing atmosphere. The park is well-kept and offers plenty of facilities, making it convenient and comfortable for visitors. Overall, it’s a great spot for a calm day out filled with creativity and nature.

This has long been on my list and well worth it. I was bowled over with the exhibits, enjoyed myself even with the rain. Plenty of trees to shelter under. Huge park, the site map shows routes and distance, a few times I was disorientated needing some more signposts. I worked out I walked over 12k with my round trip and gallery walks. A fun Art Studio in the Underground Gallery with objects, paper and coloured pencils to create ones own art. Accessibility: Good, one room I thought was difficult due to the door and the gallery in the Chapel. Otherwise Lifts, Ramps and accessible Paths. Scooters and Wheelchairs for hire. Some hilly areas, and you need to get onto the grass to get close up to quite a few sculptures. Car Park: Not too far from the entrance with parking for disabled nearer. Staff: Friendly and helpful. Toilets: In the main building and another set in the park. Disabled loo.

Plenty to see, though you do need to be wide-ranging in viewpoints about sculptures. The sculptures range from simple "Ah yes, I can see what that is." to "OK, but from where I am it looks more like a ...." So, you need to be open minded. There are big names in art and less well known. The works are displayed mainly in open parkland so be prepared for a walk. It is possible for disabled visitors to borrow either a wheelchair or a Tramper (mobility scooter) to roam far and wide.

The sculptures are set in beautiful grounds and the sculptures are extremely varied. There are a number of location maps around the grounds but I feel where individual pieces are could be made more clear.

This made a good treat towards a hard studying week for my son. Costs a lot relative to what I saw my son doing, but he enjoyed anyway.

Everything you would want from an Entertainment venue. Lots to do and plenty of food choice. My 9 and 11 year old loved it.

I mean it if you want a fun day here if it’s raining or you want something to do, this IS NOT the place to go. Customer service is awful and it’s an absolute joke. A group of me and my friends bought drinks from WH Smith’s and sat in the go karting gravity. This woman who works there walks past us and looks at us, she then calls security and he says to us we need to leave for not buying something and sitting on the chairs, fair enough. Why the woman couldn’t have a normal conversation with us about it instead of calling security, no clue. The security guard told us we needed to leave that particular area but we could still go anywhere else in xscape. Everyone left but then he proceeded to follow us around and told us we had to leave now. Everyone was confused as what he previously told us he now changed for no reason? Then as we were leaving we questioned why we were being kicked out he then proceeded to scream at us and showed a badge to say he was customer service helper and we needed to leave. We all left and went to J32 to eat something. We were all sat talking quietly and eating, the place was basically empty. When we went to Greggs the woman in Greggs came up to all of me and my friends and told us we needed to leave if we didn’t get something to eat. Everyone in the group had bought something except 2 girls, who then bought food they didn’t even eat so everyone didn’t get kicked out. This didn’t make sense either as if it was a family in Greggs and one of the family members didn’t get something to eat they wouldn’t kick the whole family out?? We then went back to xscape 1 hour later just to ask the security when we would be allowed back in, we didn’t try force our way through or argue we said we would leave if he answered the question. He then proceeded to call for backup AND police. At this point there was seriously no need for any of this and all we needed was somewhere to go?? It was dark outside, we said we’re willing to buy things if we can just come inside and he was screaming and calling backup. As a group of teenagers non of this was fair and I’m sure someone can agree with me..? Being kicked out for 2 people not buying food, being told to leave 1 area and then being kicked out the whole place for no reason doesn’t make sense. The customer service is awful and I don’t recommend coming here.

I did my workplace first aid course in the church here, the course was great, and it was a bonus there was plenty places to grab a bite to eat whilst I was there. It was a little hot in the building as it was a very warm week, so maybe a bit more air-conditioning wouldn't go amiss. Plenty parking and right off the motorway too 👍

Went to gravity max gamebox I would say it was ok not what i expected no air conditioning in the room so it can get quite hot. I thought the floor is lava might be more floor based but it wasn't its just on the screens on the walls. My son was bored after 45 minutes we booked 2 session angry birds and floor is lava there are a range of games that run back to back but theres a short break between your first and second game if you booked 2. But overall i wouldn't go again. My daughter enjoyed it. We also saw (but didn't take part in) the go karting as it's right next to the gamebox and we wouod like to give it a go at some point but we noticed some kids were getting slammed quite hard in the karts when other drivers bumoed into them so we would likely go for a shared kids and adult kart to avoid problems, just something to consider if you're planning on doing this.

Something for everyone, though can be pricey however the Tenpin deals do make it more affordable midweek if bowling is tour thing. Great selection of eateries and entertainments and some sports. Missing a Chinese buffet but there is one around the corner!

Went the cinema there and went to the epic screen which ready enjoyed the sound quality and picture but was disappointed as the seats just manually reclined at the back no footrest so was quite uncomfortable didn't seem alot if deals for the popcorn etc apart from that enjoyed it but will stick with kirkstall road Vue

It was the 1st time we've been to Magna this weekend and we loved it. Lots to do and see, the big melt was amazing and got my 6 year old attention which is not easy to do. My sons favourite floor was the water floor and he was drenched when we came out of it. Luckily we had a towel to hand but it was good fun. We had a mix of a picnic and food from the cafe (the cafe food is expensive). The playground adventure had lots for all ages and my partner even went on the zip line too. The water park looks lovely but my boy said it was too cold to go in.

An absolutely epic place for kids and adults alike! So interactive and interesting it kept us all entertained for hours. I loved the set up representing the 4 elements earth, wind, fire and water plus I found the big melt interesting (a little jumpy for my 2 year old). The outside park was huge and if we lived closer we would be there all the time! They had standard play area equipment but standpits I couldn't get my 2 year old out of and a water park I couldn't get my 5 year old out of! 100% recommend and we will be going back!

Went to the Magna science centre today and it was great. The exhibition was interesting, interactive and quite inspiring. The place is massive but it felt full of interesting things to do and look at. I felt like I was on red dwarf at one point haha. My niece enjoyed it and got involved. The cafe is ok, there are plenty of toilets and there is also a good park outside. The bonus is that you pay once and get an annual pass free, fantastic!

We got there very early, highly recommend getting there for opening time. It is quite dark so be aware, it can be quite noisy so if you have a sensor problem with sound take ear protection. There are plenty of interactive things to do, you will be very entertained, great for all age groups, we went with a toddler and he love all of it ( not the noisy parts of course) They have toilets on every floor and seats for you to rest on every floor and entrance. They have a cafe with plenty of seating they also have a specific packed lunch area too with is different and nice. The food prices where good not expensive at all. They have a large outside play area with a dry part and wet part. Be prepared for your kids to gey wet. Bout indoor and out. Best are is the year round ticket

Absolutely fantastic day out! Can't wait to visit again. The park and splash pad outside is a day in itself. Our 18 month old loved running round and all the interactive things. Cafe was nice, staff friendly. Only thing I'd say to improve was the baby changing facilities were a bit rough and would be nice to have some stations dotted round to refil water bottles. Otherwise really recommend Magna!

Went today with a 10 year old. He started off looking bored, but after 4 hours had to drag him out! Very good value for money. The exhibitions were great, but often too dark to see the words on the exhibits. Cafe was ok, long queues at busy times and slow service. The “Big Melt” was a little disappointing to start with but got better, although a lot of small children were taken out screaming - it’s very loud. We then were invited to tour the factory floor - probably just those with older kids- I loved it, but it went on a bit too long, just looking at rusty old machines. Be aware, it’s very cold, it’s a cavernous steel shed with no heating, it’s often rather dark and uneven floors, and the Water exhibit is, quite wet ! Outside the adventure playground is huge and suitable for a wide age group, very clean and well maintained

Wow, absolutely amazing day! If I'd read other reviews before buying tickets I may not have gone but what a mistake that would have been. Went with a 9 and 10 year old and they enjoyed every minute. So many interactive things for them to do and so much to see. We could have stayed much longer, will definitely make use of the annual pass! The outdoor play area and water area is brilliant and a day out in itself. How anyone says they got round the museum in an hour is beyond me. I couldn't get the kids out! Was definitely not cold anywhere although im sure thats different in winter months but I'd happily wrap up to go back.

Compared to other castles and British monuments, this attraction isn't very extensive. It essentially consists of two buildings: a medieval mansion for receiving guests, and the castle, where the nobility resided. Furthermore, since the attraction was once abandoned, most of the furniture and decorations are missing or damaged. Despite this, it's still well worth a visit. The castle is built on a magnificent hill, offering stunning views of the surrounding area from the castle gate. The interior is also unique, and wandering through the rooms makes you feel like you've stepped back into the Middle Ages.As a half-day family weekend trip, followed by a good lunch, I think it is very good.

English heritage site well conserved with good information. Spectacular views on clear days. Dog friendly in areas without a roof, except for the café. Friendly informative staff. Fairly good free parking around Bolsover. Only negative is signage to the castle. Well worth a visit.

Nice little castle to explore in a great setting with lot's of ruins. The smaller castle is very interesting, with lot's of winding stairs, marble fireplaces, paintings, architecture etc. Some great views from the castle and there's also a nice walled walk accessible from inside the castle. I'd probably say it would take 2-3 hours at most to explore everything. There's free parking and also some additional parking nearby that you have to pay for. Also on site There's a small playground that is quite good, which is very close by to the cafe. We didn't use the cafe so not sure on prices - quality of food. There's also a few benches around so you could sit and bring your own food if you like. There's a nice gift shop there to, which is definitely overpriced but they always are. There's also a nice wetherspoons nearby if you wanted breakfast/lunch. Staff were very helpful and knowledgeable here.

A very small castle, but my goodness what a history. to be honest you can normally walk around it in an hour but on my visit 25.8.25 there was a jousting display and static displays of medieval life with interesting talks. A superb family day out for all ages. I really can't recommend joining English Heritage highly enough, the whole day, and it was a whole day was fabulous.

Great castle and stunning views. We went while the Halloween events were on and my 6 year old absolutely loved it. I think it would have been nice for more information to be around to read, for those of us that didn't pick up an audio guide (they are hard to listen to with a young child running around), some short descriptions of each of the rooms around the castle would have been really interesting. But overall really enjoyed our visit!

We visited Bolsover Castle to 21st November 2025. It is a fabulous Castle, there is plenty to do for all ages. A very nice coffee shop and gift shop, children's adventure playground and plenty of outdoor seating. The Castle very interesting to walk round. There are some out of this world veiws of Derbyshire from the Castle.

Bolsover in my opinion is the best example of 17th century castles I've been to. Built purely for entertaining royalty and the hierarchy it truly shows how the other half lived. I recommend you book online if you are not a member of English heritage and allow yourself at least 3 hours to look around,free audio machines available for free which are very informative.

Would highly recommend the Train Museum. We spent many hours walking round and reading the information plaques infront of each train. My son was very impressed with how big trains are up close. The Bullet train was really interesting. There were 2 well stocked cafes and ample seating. The road train back to the Minster was also a highlight. Its free to go but i recommend leaving a donation as they rely on these to keep the trains maintained and new trains coming in the future.

Excellent museum & rich in history. We booked tickets in advance via the website. It is free entry, easily accessible for wheelchairs etc. It does get busy so I would suggest booking tickets & it saves queuing. Within the ground there is plenty to see & I was pleasantly surprised how vast it is. Cafe's are set within the grounds (we had 2 large lattes at £8.10) plenty of seating if you wanted to bring your own pack lunches as many families did or you can order a family pack-lunch on site). Toilets are accessible & clean. There is a museum amongst all the history & this is payable to enter. There is another building across from the main one where you can continue the walkabout & continue viewing the fascinating history also a cafe in here too. I thoroughly enjoyed viewing Queen Victoria history. But there is something for everyone. A delightful way to spend a Sunday afternoon & the staff were very welcoming & polite which was a nice way to start the viewing. You can make a donation to the museum of your choosing & make it via cash or card if you so wish. I highly recommend going & making a day of it, you won't be disappointed. It is a gem of a place. Parking is permit only around the area or you can park on the car-park at a cost of £10 for the day (a very good offer considering entrance to the museum is free). 😊

Amazing experience at this Museum. Very interesting so see trains over 100 years old. Gets busy on weekends. Allow atleast 2-3 hours as minimum just for the museum. Good gift shops inside. Must visit. Free entry. Car park is expensive at £10 a day.

We visited this place last year ! We loved this place ! So many trains and so many nice experiences! A great selections of them and you actually have the chance to get on board. They have a nice dinner too. Museum highlights Iconic locomotives: See famous engines like the world's fastest steam locomotive, the Mallard, and Japan's Shinkansen 'bullet train'. Station Hall: Explore a century of railway life in this reopened gallery, which also houses the world's most extensive collection of royal carriages. Wonderlab: The Bramall Gallery: An interactive, family-friendly exhibit with hands-on science displays. A separate ticket is required for entry. Virtual Reality experience: Experience the history of the world-famous steam locomotive, the Flying Scotsman, in a special VR experience. Railway memorabilia: The museum holds a vast collection of railway artifacts and memorabilia.

Brilliant day out with the kids. Definitely worth a visit. Visited from the west Midlands so we left early in the morning, just so we could get to York with enough time. We did arrive bout 3mins before our timing slot, but we was aloud to walk in. It does get busy then does have quiet bits through out day. Loads to see all throughout. Great viewing platform overlooking York Station. Just a shame the was doing works on the line that weekend when we was there. So only seen a few trains coming and leaving towards Scarborough. We sent at least 4 to 5 hours there. My 3 children enjoyed the whole day out. Took our own pack lunch to save money. Definitely worth a visit.

Great museum for all ages. Apart from seeing the iconic engines, the railway memorabilia area is thoughtfully curated and displayed in an innovative manner. The newly opened Station Hall is well worth a visit with special carriages on display in an atmospheric vintage Station setting. Children can enjoy the ride on the outdoor miniature railway.

A Fascinating Journey Through Railway History. The National Railway Museum in York is an absolute must-visit for anyone interested in history, engineering, or simply looking for a unique and enjoyable day out. The collection is truly impressive — from beautifully restored steam locomotives to sleek modern trains, each exhibit tells a fascinating story about the evolution of rail travel in Britain and around the world. The museum is very well organized. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. It’s also a great place for families — children can climb aboard some of the trains and enjoy hands-on activities that make the experience even more engaging. The museum café and gift shop are also worth visiting, offering good food and lovely souvenirs. Best of all, admission is free, which makes it an incredible value for such a high-quality experience. I highly recommend the National Railway Museum to anyone visiting York — it’s inspiring, educational, and full of charm.

York is a wonderful town and well worth a visit. It's easy to park and the historic center is perfectly easy walkable. And the centerpiece of course is the massive York Minster. It's an Anglican cathedral. The first record of a church on the site dates to 627, but the bulk of the building was constructed between 1220 and 1472.The minster retains most of its medieval stained glass, a significant survival among European churches. The Minster stands tall at a max. tower height of 235 feet (72 m) and is visible from far away. Good if you get lost...just look out for the Minster. And it is a really impressive piece of history, art and architecture. Really amazes you when you first walk up to it. There are so many details to find, to explore. To think how long it's been standing here - surviving quite the fire in 1984. We didn't go in this time around, but that's surely something for another visit. Not sure it's always as windy as it was when we've visited (August), but boy....did it almost blow us away at Precentors Court on the west side of the Minster. So, hold on your hats! Definitely a must do - probably THE must-do when in York.

This is one beautiful town you have to visit . York Minster is a magnificent Gothic cathedral located on Deangate in the heart of York, England. Formally known as the Cathedral and Metropolitical Church of Saint Peter in York, it is the seat of the Archbishop of York, the second-highest office of the Church of England. Key Information Address: Deangate, York, YO1 7HH. Architecture: The current building is a large Gothic structure, showcasing all three phases of Gothic architecture: Early English, Decorated, and Perpendicular. It was built between approximately 1220 and 1472, taking over 250 years to complete. History: A church has been on this site since the 7th century, founded by the Saxon King Edwin. The site was originally part of a Roman fortress. Stained Glass: The Minster holds the largest collection of medieval stained glass in the UK, including the Great East Window, which is the size of a tennis court. Visiting: The Minster is open daily for sightseeing, though closures can occur for church events. Services, including Evensong, are free to attend, while there is an entrance fee for general sightseeing. Features: Highlights include the Undercroft Museum, which displays Roman remains and 1,000-year-old artefacts, and the central tower, which visitors can climb for panoramic views.

Visiting York Minster was a truly unforgettable experience! Walking through those magnificent stone arches made me feel completely lost in history. The stained glass windows, shimmering with colour, and the intricate craftsmanship throughout the cathedral left me in awe. The highlight was the climb up the Central Tower. Each step revealed glimpses of the cathedral’s inner structure, offering a rare perspective on its monumental design. Reaching the summit, I was rewarded with the most breathtaking panoramic view of York!

York Minster - A Truly Unforgettable Experience ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As a Google Maps Contributor with over 6 million views, I’ve had the privilege of exploring some of the world’s most magnificent landmarks, and I can confidently say that York Minster stands in a league of its own. From the moment you approach its towering stone facade, you’re not just seeing a building; you’re witnessing a living, breathing testament to centuries of history, faith, and artistry. What truly sets the Minster apart is its incredible detail. The medieval stained-glass windows, particularly the famous Great East Window, are simply breathtaking. The light pouring through the vibrant, intricate panes tells stories that have captivated visitors for over 600 years. I highly recommend taking your time to study the rich narratives depicted in each section. Beyond the aesthetics, the sense of scale is awe-inspiring. Standing in the central nave, you feel dwarfed by the sheer height and grandeur of the Gothic architecture. A trip up the central tower offers a reward well worth the effort—a 360-degree panoramic view of the historic city of York that is second to none. The staff and volunteers are exceptionally knowledgeable and passionate, making the experience even more enriching. They're more than happy to share historical anecdotes and point out hidden gems. Whether you are a history buff, an architecture enthusiast, or simply a traveler in search of a profound experience, a visit to York Minster is an absolute must. It’s an essential pin on any serious reviewer's map.

Beautiful cathedral! Would recommend everyone to see this if in the UK. The architecture was astonishing, both inside and out. So lovely hearing church bells again, it really uplifts the soul. Only thing is it’s expensive to go inside and I would advise you buy tickets before hand.

York minister is an absolutely stunning cathedral, the architecture, stained glass windows and stone carvings are spectacular. The staff are very friendly and there is also a free guided tour. I would definitely recommend, it’s a must see if you visit York.

Hard to stress how important this place is! Walking distance from the Station, its worth the £20 admission fee. There are many medieval Stained glass windows, all worth a close look. The Great East Window, recently restored is a National Treasure, depicting the Revelation, constructed from 1405-8, the single largest expanse of medieval glass in Britain. A long camera lens or binoculars recommended! Dont forget the Zouche chapel and The Chapter House too. Plenty of other interesting things to see as well.

Lovely and cozy place to walk around. Very narrow lanes and looks line to be in horror movies streets.nearby many restaurants whee you can have variety and delicious food. Must to visit place

Second time back to York and loved it as much as I did previously. Sadly The Shambles was very much crowded and couldn't get the photos we were wanting to take, but I guess it's a tourist attraction and there are lots who want to go and see this anyways!

A beautiful place. Architecture its moved me in victorian era. How great looks all buildings. Loved it to walk on this street and surrounding.

Wow!!! What a magical street- fantastic if you are a Harry Potter fan!!! We went fairly early in the morning as I can image it would get very busy and crowded later in the day. The Christmas shop …. ❤️ wow!!!

Beautiful buildings, almost like you’ve gone back in time. If you want good photos you have to get there at the crack of dawn before it gets rammed with tourists. I got there at 6:30am to snap these shots. Wonderful

I loved the Shambles. Yes, it is crowded and attracts tourists, that’s no question. But it also has such a fun vibe and great shops. We arrived at 9:15 AM and it was almost empty. We got in line for the Ghost Merchants. Arriving early allows you to enjoy the street before it gets super busy. The eateries were great and the employees at every shop we went to were so kind and welcoming. Our entire experience was excellent. We came back in the evening during a witch tour and it was also quiet. All the shops had shut down and besides the unfortunate scaffolding currently in place, it was also charming and inviting. We did our best to enjoy all the shops (so many great ones!) and avoided any place that would provide royalties to she who shall not be named. Really loved our time here.

Some lovely shops, we waited an hour to get in the ghost merchants but it went quickly and it was worth it. Lovely street just very busy.

You don’t need to pay to go on the city walls, just walk around the main part of York and find some stairs going up onto the walls which can be found usually at the end of main roads. The York City Walls are a beautiful walk around the city, sometimes the wall is thinner on areas and can only allow single person file, whereas it is larger in other areas. Safe for children, not certain of the ability for those in wheelchairs or prams to use the city walls as I am not sure there was any ramps up onto the walls.

Visited York on many occasions but only now got around to touring the walls. A pleasant walk around the historic edge of the city also provided numerous unique views and perspectives on the history contained within. If you are in the city don't wait as long as I did to discover these sights for yourself.

Do not miss York's Walls. You can walk most of the way around the city, and in the Autumn the leaves of nearby trees look stunning. You need a head for heights, because most of the walls are not protected by railings on the inside edge, with a 3 meter drop to grass or thorns, but nobody seemed worried. The best views are from the highest point of the walls near the railway station, looking towards York Minster. The unexpected bonus is Baile Hill, a FREE mound beside the wall, which I preferred to its more famous cousin, £9-to-enter and no-views Clifford's Tower.

Great walk accessed by steep steps, I was 😍 vilaged to walk one year during sunset which bathed the walls in gold. The walk is free but closed at dusk or in bad weather for safety reasons. The Walk is not complete, some sections demolished, most saved by a Bishop who fought for it not to be demolished.

A free attraction in York which we were happy to take advantage of. We walked the wall route clockwise starting at Bootham Bar. They say these are the most complete city walls in England, personally I’m dubious of this claim as the ones in Chester seem more complete to me, albeit the Chester walls are shorter (2 miles not 3 as in York) whereas the York walls have a couple of significant gaps in them. Nonetheless this was a pleasant walk if you are moderately fit as there are several sets of steps to navigate. There are some sections without inner railings but the drop isn’t a sheer drop, but a grassed slope. If you are lucky, the Tudor ‘Red Tower’ might be open, as was the case on the Saturday we did the walk. Don’t miss the section of Roman wall near the multiangular tower.

The York City Walls (also known as the "Bar Walls") are the most complete and longest medieval town walls in England, running for a circuit of approximately 2 miles (3.4 km) around the historic centre of the city. The elevated walkway is free to access and offers unique views of York Minster and other landmarks. Key Information for Visitors Opening Times: The walls are generally open daily from around 8:00 am to dusk, except on Christmas Day, in very high winds, or in icy/slippery weather conditions when they may be closed for safety. Access: Access to the walkway is via steps at various points, including the main 'bars' (fortified gateways). The walk is not suitable for wheelchairs, pushchairs/prams, or dogs (except assistance dogs). Route and Duration: A full circuit can be walked in about two hours at a leisurely pace, but many choose to walk only sections. The route is clearly signposted, with a brass stud trail marking the path where the walls are not continuous at ground level. Main 'Bars' (Gateways): The four principal gatehouses are Bootham Bar, Monk Bar, Walmgate Bar, and Micklegate Bar. Walmgate Bar is the only one in England to retain its barbican (an outer gateway). Points of Interest: The walk offers views of major attractions such as the Multangular Tower (Roman ruins in the Museum Gardens), Clifford's Tower, and York Minster.

Unfortunately, I didn’t get a chance to walk along all the city walls. But anyway, I was on some of them. That’s the best landmark after the York Minster, in my opinion. Speaking of York Minster, you can see it from the city walls. The walls give you a chance to explore the city and also dive into York’s history. There are text boards where you can read about the history of these walls.

Well worth the £17 ticket price for this amazing, award winning museum. Built on the site of the original castle, which then became a debtors prison and a women's prison. It was founded in 1938 t house the large collection of objects relating to the study of social history donated by John Lampugh Kirk. Biggest highlights for me was the atmospheric sights and sounds of the Victorian Kirkgate Street with museum staff, actors, in period costume giving their knowledge of the local history. I also loved the experience of the prison with the actors on video speaking about the harsh conditions.

Excellent museum well worth spending several hours going through. It's housed in the former Female Prison (1780) and the Debtor's Prison (1705) both of which have Georgian architecture. I had gone here 50 years ago and remembered the streets and shops of Victorian York they have. It was nice to see it again. The signs are very informative - if you have the time read them.

I am not really one for museums but being on a trip to York it seemed like the Castle Museum would be a good place to go! We spent almost 2 hours in this place and particularly loved the old cobbled street- especially with Xmas decorations! We also really enjoyed the prison with the film clips and some of the interactive activities. Well done for a great museum!

I had a great time here! Decided to visit the Castle Museum rather than the Jorvik on my trip to York because of my interest in the Victorians and was not disappointed. Visited on a Saturday, pre-booked but it wasn't too busy. Loved the Victorian streets, friendly and informative guides, the fashion exhibit, and the old chocolate adverts in the chocolate history section. Also a special mention for the antique 'gamesc machines, really fun that they're all working!

York Castle Museum – Tower Street, YO1 9RY (Visited Tuesday 18th November 2025) This is our own experience with this business, and we know different clients will have different experiences — but we always leave reviews based on the service we received when we ordered or visited. First Impressions From the moment we arrived, the York Castle Museum made a wonderful impression. Rowan at the front counter was friendly, welcoming, and set a positive tone for the visit. The entrance area is well organised, with umbrella stands provided so you can leave your umbrellas to dry before exploring the museum—such a thoughtful touch, especially on a wet November day. Cleanliness & Safety Concerns The museum was clean, well maintained, and easy to navigate. The bathrooms were tidy and thoughtfully set up, with small stools available for children to reach the hand towels or dryers—something we really appreciated. Accessibility is excellent throughout, with ramps, lifts, and easy-access toilets making the entire museum comfortable for wheelchair users and anyone with mobility needs. Food Quality The café is a lovely little spot serving drinks, snacks, crisps, and sandwiches. Perfect for taking a quick break before continuing your visit or at the end. Everything looked fresh and reasonably priced. Ambience & Surroundings Inside the museum, the atmosphere was warm, inviting, and full of character—especially welcome on a cold, rainy day. The displays are incredibly well signposted and wonderfully educational without feeling overwhelming. The Victorian Street area was a real highlight, beautifully dressed up for Christmas and full of charm. Service & Atmosphere The staff throughout the building were fantastic—friendly, approachable, and happy to interact and share knowledge. Rowan in particular was excellent, but everyone we came across added to the positive experience. The museum has a great energy, making it engaging for adults and children alike. Don’t forget to take some 20p and 50p coins—there are old machines dotted around that the kids absolutely loved. Facilities Facilities are excellent: accessible toilets, lifts, ramps, child-friendly features, a cosy café, and well-maintained exhibition spaces. The ticket you buy allows unlimited visits for 12 months, which offers great value. The museum is also just a short walk from the town centre, with a public pay-and-display car park only a few minutes away. A brilliantly laid-out museum with lots to see, do, and learn—we highly recommend a visit, especially with children. I hope this honest review helps others make an informed decision.

Faboulous. The entry fee is well worth the visit. There are 2 halves to the museum. 1 covers different periods of time with memorabilia from ww2 the 60s and more. The other is the replica period rooms and a very well done replica street with bits to explore. Loved it.

I am utterly impressed by the artefacts and realistically arranged rooms from different eras. The clothing section is very comprehensive too. The Victorian street - just perfect. One feels like on a movie set, for lack of closer experience. I spent a ton of time in the museum and would honestly revisit!

Beautiful gardens and forest. The walled garden is one of the best around. The audio house tour is highly recommended. One can easily spend a day wandering the grounds and forest trails. Excellent farm and garden shop, and a children's play area that makes adults want to join. Excellent cafe. All in all, a wonderful place to wander alone, or for a day out with the entire family.

My second visit after many years. Such a lovely historic building with volunteer staff to tell you about the family, the paintings, and just a wonderful experience all round. The gardens are huge but very well tended. If I get to Yorkshire again it will definitely get another visit. We had lunch there too. Very good food with help yourself to salad stuff. We had the cheese filled jacket potatoes with salad and homemade coleslaw. Too full for sweet but they looked amazing.

Came here to take part in 10k run, so had a lovely opportunity to run all the way round the gardens, and then have a further potter around in the walled garden afterwards, and nip to the cafe, and a peek into the big House itself. The gardens are magnificent, very natural, Capability Brown style. You could certainly imagine two Austen characters galloping across the grounds, laughing as they did so in the warming sun. At least that’s how it felt in October. Would have liked to look more round the house, but in terms of the gardens, and its peacocks, it’s quite superb, and a worthy afternoon out to enjoy it.

I loved the way Castle Howard revealed itself from afar as we approached the estate. That first glimpse of its dome rising through the trees felt almost cinematic — architecture commanding attention even before arrival, framed by rolling fields. The long avenues, historic gatehouses and distant obelisks spoke volumes about the estate’s scale and story. Every angle seemed like a scene waiting to be composed: symmetry, texture, and quiet grandeur unfolding with each turn. Though we did not step inside the House due to time constraints, the drive through the landscape was memorable.

This is the best non- mideval castle in all of Great Britain. While it is 500 years old, it is almost modern in the look and feel. The way it's set up for viewing, you can almost see and hear the family going about their daily routines and lives. The grounds are magnificent and and need to be seen to be fully appreciated. This is a historic site that should be mandatory for everyone visiting England.

If you enjoy a walk round some fabulous gardens, lakes, temples then this is for you. I didn't go in the house as I had a dog with me but the tea rooms, gift shop and farm shop all had something to give you joy. Really worth a visit.

This is my winter return to the camping and touring site at Castle Howard, whilst the facilities are sufficient rather than grand they are kept clean and for us, the whole package deserves five stars. The lake and Castle Howard itself are well worth a visit, I love walking my dogs from the touring site to the Castle . The walk is not easily accessible in parts due to muddy and slippery path sections but for short re-navigations to the road it’s not a problem. The costs to stay here are great compared with CAMC sites and we can’t thank the owners enough for keeping the costs achievable enabling us to visit regularly.

It's a fun day out for everyone! There's loads of free parking, but stick to the regular car park unless you're staying at the hotel. The animals have big enclosures. You can find the feeding times at the entrance. You can buy a map at the entrance or download the app. I reckon the best way to see the Park is to go right after you get through the turnstiles. Head through Pangea, the dinosaur bit. Watch out for the spitting dino! It'll take you 2 to 3 hours to walk around. Wear comfy shoes. There are plenty of places to eat and picnic spots for the kids. Drinks and snacks are a bit pricey, but hey, that's what you get when you're captive audience! We visited at the beginning of October and saw at least 90% of the animals.

What a day! I honestly felt like a little kid again. It’s been years since I last visited a zoo or wildlife park, and I was completely in my element. The staff were so friendly, the animals were fantastic, and the walk-through areas were an absolute highlight. Such a lovely experience from start to finish – I can’t wait to go back!

Christmas illuminations 2025 with family. Had a great evening out and sore some beautiful illuminations. Well organised and plenty of staff around if you have any problem's or inquiries!. Could do with one little improvement, that would be more lighting in darker areas of the park, when the night sky comes in. Other than that a fantastic and enjoyable day.

Fantastic place. Awesome day out, animals look very well looked after with big enclosures, originally went to see Capybara due to an obsessed child, nice little walk around to be within a few feet of one. Plenty put stops to eat or have a picnic. Highly recommend.

Visited many times in the past but this time it was for the Light Festival. Couldn't fault anything. Food options at The Hive are varied and obviously lots of things to do/see - although of course most of the animals were abed! The staff were helpful and kind , even after a long day of helping. Easy to get to and exit - but that's by car. Can't speak about other transport options. The Light Festival is worth a visit; it's truly a 'walk-of-art'!!

Nicely laid out, great attractions and plenty of different animals, it was nice to see them in decent enclosurs. Went for the Halloween event which had 5 sections to find, they was big ques but they didn't make you feel rushed. Will definitely visit again.

An absolutely fantastic place. Lovely large animal enclosures which offer terrific views. It's also very flat, so walking around is easy. We stayed in the on-site hotel (Hex) which is lovely with nice, friendly staff. A must-visit if ever in this part of Yorkshire

Lovely place to take the family no extras to pay unless it's for ice-cream or food. Helpful and friendly staff. Didn't use the water park this visit as it was chilly and on/off raining but that didn't dampen or spoil our 6 hours of fun and adventure. The falconry visit was great, the handler was excellent and his knowledge and interaction with the birds was amazing 👏 😀 Thank you Wheelgate for a brilliant day 5⭐️

We had a fantastic day at Robin Hood’s Wheelgate! There’s so much to see and do for all ages, but the absolute highlight for us was the Bird of Prey show. It was funny, entertaining, and packed with interesting facts that kept both kids and adults engaged from start to finish. The presenter really knew how to mix humour with education, and the eagle owl was just brilliant – such a stunning bird and very loud!! The baby red kites were also very funny, even if they were not fully ready for show time. A great day out, and we’ll definitely be visiting again!

Had a great family day out, it was great weather today so the children enjoyed the splash park also. Plenty of benches outside and tables and chairs inside to have a picnic. Plenty of toilets around and rubbish bins. Visited wheelgate a number of times over the years, never had any issues with the park. The children also enjoy visiting the animals and reptiles. A great range of rides indoor/ outside and always take money for an ice cream.

Fantastic place with so much to do. We only made it around some of the park as it is so big. There are so many rides and things to do.

Me and my whole family absolutely love this place! We love the animals, we got to know the Guinea Pigs so well and my daughters are happy to visit them each time we go there. We loved to see Capibaras for the first time in our life. We love the decorations, the ambience. Everything!!

Absolutely love this place. We buy annual passes every black Friday because it never disappoints. It's great for ages between 1 1/2 - 12 and up depending on the child. The staff are all so lovely and genuinely care about the kids which makes such a difference - you don't feel quite so nervous letting them explore and make friends on their own, especially in the Pharos soft play which is GIANT! It's literally an aircraft hangers worth of soft play. As a parent I really enjoy our days here because it brings out the big kid in you. Lots of wonderful memories 💖

Today the weather wasn't the worst, although there was no sun, it rained only at the very end, around 4 p.m., so you could enjoy all the attractions. The great hill from which you slide down on a so-called carpet/doormat deserves great recognition, great fun! I went with my son several times! What really surprised us was the pedal helicopter! It was the first time I saw it and it's really cool, suspended high among the trees, just waiting for your muscular legs to start pedaling and then move through the unknown! Really a firecracker! Unfortunately, the splash area was open but due to the weather not being the best, there were only a few people there, we walked in for a while, walked up and left, we will definitely come back next year to check out all the slides when there is sun ☀️ There is also a place with animals, of various kinds such as carousels and super cool two-person pontoons on the water, which by pressing one button you can spin tops or move in the direction of the steering wheel, there are two cannons on the side, so spectators or people standing on the shore can throw in £1 and then give back £10 shots, but both cannons did not work, although the staff was very nice because when they noticed that someone had put money in, they quickly returned it. The cannons fired at random times. Mini golf is also cool, but it should be added that it is included in the ticket price because there are parks where you have to pay extra for it. You can eat or drink something at every step, I also have a problem with the toilets, although unfortunately they are not fully functional, because I was in two different toilets and neither of them had hand dryers and both doesn't work. As my son said, a large wooden castle with large slides also works. There is one place that looks like a big fun place inside, but in the middle there is an attraction for children that has chairs around a pillar, goes up and falls down helplessly. Very nice, you can eat something downstairs, there is soft play for the little ones and upstairs for the bigger ones, but unfortunately despite the relative weather - it was cloudy, about 20°, it was very hot upstairs and after half an hour we had to go out to get some fresh air :) overall, the park is 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the friendly team working there is always helpful, so keep it up and I'll come back next year :))) thank you again 🥰🥰

Eden Camp Modern History Museum moving is housed in the authentic, original huts of a former World War II Prisoner of War camp, we found the atmosphere electric. We thoroughly enjoyed the museum's incredible immersive displays. Each hut is meticulously transformed into a different aspect of wartime life, from the fear-inducing sounds and smells of the Blitz to the stark realities of the POW quarters and the resilience of the Home Front. The life-size tableaux, sound effects, and attention to detail bring the past roaring back to life. We loved the entire complex with so much to see. History enthusiasts will appreciate the depth and breadth of the exhibits, which cover WWI up to modern conflicts, while younger visitors will be captivated by the hands-on elements and the sheer impact of the sensory huts. It’s an incredibly valuable educational experience that is worth far more than any textbook. With excellent accessibility, a friendly atmosphere. The staff are knowledgeable and clearly passionate about preserving this important piece of history.

An outstanding day is there for you at Eden Camp. There's so much to see and so much information. The Camp is set out in an easy to follow route. The staff are fabulous and informative as well as friendly. The cafe is very nice with good food. My 11 year old Granddaughter absolutely loved her visit and we will be returning very soon. A unique insight into how WW11 was fought and won, not too mention our fallen heroes.

We visited the Living history weekend on the 24th of August. What an amazing and well organised day, we loved every minute. The re-enactors, the displays, the talks, the knowledge of the people with the displays, and also anyone dressed up today, made the day superb, it literally felt like we had gone back in time. I thought the control room with the actors was fabulous, the room was brought to life, this was my favourite part of the day, it was unexpected and brilliantly done 👏 The cafe was great and spacious with a good selection of food and drinks for everyone. The gift shop is well stocked with lots of things for visitors of all ages to buy a souvenir. There's an ice cream kiosk too which had vegan magnums for those who can't have dairy. There are plenty of picnic benches if you take your own food. All the staff were organised, friendly and pleasant, they need a big shout out as it was quite warm and they will have been kept busy all day. I highly recommend attending one of these days. The camp by itself is brilliant to visit, but with all the extra things happening today, it was an added bonus. #EdenCamp

For anyone interested in WW2 this is an excellent place to visit. Lots to see and read. Even the 4 and 6 year olds with us enjoyed the experience. Lots of huts to explore. Interesting to people of all ages. Free parking. Gift shop which was expensive. There is a cafe and plenty of spaces to eat your own picnic. Also a kids play area.

Absolutely fantastic day, there is so much to see and do. Some of the huts offer an immersive experience like the one about the blitz. We were lucky enough to see the heritage team fire up their M50 Sherman Tank, its an impressive beast and give a talk about its history. Gift shop has a small selection of products with most things aimed at children. The whole site was clean and tidy. Fantastic day you need at least 4 hours for a good visit.

Wow. What a fabulous place. So much to see and do. This is a real gem of a place. Absolutely fascinating. Spent about 6 hours there and want to go back. Beautifully done and emotional at times. Staff were so friendly and knowledgeable. Grounds were immaculate.. Definitely worth a visit.

An old POW camp that has been turned into the museum I had a fantastic visit. So much told about the WW2 that I got lost in time. Spent here 4 hours. It's a dog friendly place but bare in mind that all the school from all the milky way galaxy stop here so it's not a good idea to visit museum during the school day.

Beautiful gardens, the rockery area and the lake are amazing. All the Lillie's where flowering all different colours. There was entertainment for kids and families. Small play area for under 12s. Lovely cafe and gift shop. All the staff where great and the place was so clean and well kept. Highly recommend!

Beautiful place to visit. My daughter absolutely loved feeding the fish, playing on the playground and wondering around the gardens. Very well looked after. The cafe was lovely, had lunch there and a cake. The staff were great, but some looked a bit lost, not too sure if that was because there were too many on or because they were new. The food was great

I came here for the Tulip Festival 2025, when the gardens were bathed in gentle sunshine and the air carried a soft, easy warmth. The grounds stretch wide and open, inviting both rest and wandering, with a playground where children’s laughter drifts like music. Quaint cafés and charming restaurants sit clean and welcoming, while a little ice cream shop sweetens the day with delight. And should you wish for a touch of whimsy, buy a small bag of fish food — the simple joy it brings is nothing short of enchanting. Highly recommended!

Immensely enjoyable gardens to walk around, the best I’ve ever seen. Most of it is a flat walk around a couple of lakes and off shoot gardens that has a small aviary flower garden and rockery before you get to a smaller second lake that has a picturesque bridge to walk to the other side to carry on your walk back to the main entrance. It has a nice sit in or out cafe along with a play area for children. I can highly recommend this place and the highlight is feeding the fish which follow you around the lake ( small bags of feed are £1.50 a bag (£8.50 to get in for a adult as of today)but as it’s a trust it’s worth getting to have fun feeding the estimated 1000 fish that live here. It also has around 100 different types of lily dotted around the lake to make this place a must visit addition if you’re around the Pocklington area .

I love this place there's a lake with fish in. You can buy fish food which is great fun. There's a good cafe. Hundreds of flowers bushes and trees. A play area. Bird hide with lots of birds coming to feed from the feeders lots of Water lillies,picnic tables. There is also entertainment some times. Check on line.

I went here for work and it was gorgeous! The gardens were so lovely, obviously very fortunate with the weather but it was so beautiful! The water feature was so lovely to walk around and the fish were just insane!!! We went on a day with an owl talk which was a fun surprise to watch. Very accessible and great for families

We had a great day day at Burnby hall, one of the cleanest and best looked after gardens we've been to, not huge, but a fantastic place to relax, loads of benches and places to sit, very easy to get around as it's nearly all on one level. A museum, rock garden, walled garden, stumpery with a bird hide. The fish in the lake are amazing, you won't be able to help yourself bying some fish food from the gift shop to feed them. Highly recommended if your in the area,

Sundown Adventureland is a theme park created especially for younger children, offering a few of colourful rides, themed zones, and imaginative play areas. From tractors and pirate ships to indoor play barns and storybook villages, it’s designed to spark creativity and keep little adventurers entertained in a safe, family-friendly setting. The park is most enjoyable for children up to around 10 or 11 years old. Older ones, particularly around 12, may find the rides a little tame compared to larger theme parks, but many still enjoy the atmosphere, theming, and chance to join in with younger siblings. Overall, it remains a super good family day out.

We went to Sundown Adventureland yesterday and honestly, it’s just wonderful. The attention to detail is incredible — everything feels so intentional and full of imagination. You notice something different every time you visit, and there’s something special for every season. It’s such a magical place for the kids, but it brings out the child in you too! It's so much more than just another attraction, you can really feel the love and care that’s gone into every part of it over decades.

What a wonderful place to take young children! Everything is designed perfectly for your little ones, with interactive displays all around the park, lovely rides and soft plays. It was a shame to have one of the attractions closed because it's not the biggest place already but I'm sure it will reopen soon. I must also mention the fairytale village which was one of my favourite parts! Little houses from lots of fairytale stories that the children could explore and press buttons inside. Sundown was spotlessly clean and well kept and the effort that has gone into designing the park has got to be commended. My children loved it! Lots of space to spread out and play freely... opportunities to meet the characters. We never queued for a thing!!!! Went on the rides as many times as we wanted and practically had the whole park to ourselves! We also stayed onsite at Wild Acres which was really cute. My only criticism is that the bed wasn't very comfortable and it didn't have a proper sofa to relax on when the kiddies were in bed. The hot tub was beautiful and the decoration of the lodge was so magical. We booked our stay for Monday to Friday but that was definitely too long. You'd only need two nights 😊

Absolutely loved our stay here, especially the children there was loads to do there, massive sandpit, loads of different play equipment, the cabins are lovely to stay in, has a small little shop where you can grab essentials, and an adsa 15minutes down the road, only thing I would have to say on the cabins is that the sofas are not comfortable at all, especially if you suffer with bad backs , the beds however are just amazing so comfortable, the fridges needed have a good clean and freezer defrosted, we had a hot tub which was amazing, all the cooking equipment you need is there. The food from the restaurant was delicious

Visited Sundown Adventureland during the summer holidays and had a great time! It’s a lovely park with plenty to explore and so much for kids to enjoy. Lots of fun areas, rides, and themed zones that keep little ones entertained all day. There’s plenty of parking, and it’s definitely worth the money. A fantastic day out for families!

I took a gamble and drove 3 hours to visit Sundown. This adventure was for my sons 5th birthday. I am so pleased we went ! I can not stop raving about it to my family. There are two massive inside soft plays. My children 4 and 5 absolutely loved them. There are walk ways in and around, so u can easily keep your eye on the children. We went in the 6 weeks holiday and it wasn't rammed. There are lots of seating areas and a large variety of drinks and food to enjoy whilst the children burn off there energy. The little rides were brilliant fun and exciting for the children. My son absolutely loved the barrel ride, and the tractor ride, and with no long ques he went on it over and over again! The entire place was well looked after. Clean and tidy! Staff were welcoming and you could see they enjoy there jobs. Entry fees include all rides, so there is no additional costs. You only need to pay extra for food. However, there's lots of inside and outside seating so picnics are welcome too. The miniture villages were magical. The children spent ages exploring inside all the houses. We arrived at opening 10am and left at closing 5.30pm. There was so much to see I advise two days. I can't wait to visit again. My son was jumping around all day telling me "this is the best day ever". And it sure was, for all of us. Please visit this place. You don't know what your missing. It really is a hidden gem.

Highly recommended. So much to do and see, my 3 year old had soo much fun. I'll defo go again but booking in advance it is cheaper.

What a lovely hidden gem. Some of the most interesting aircraft from the cold war era. I would recommend a visit to anyone who has a passing interest in aviation. Some fantastic model aircraft as well. Would definitely come back again. Great volunteers and staff willing to have a chin wag and discuss the amazing aircraft in their care. Thank you.

Variety of aircraft and helicopters outside. Although these aircrafts will not be able to fly anymore it's nice to be able to appreciate their worth, and without the museum this would not be possible. There are two hangers housing a varied collection of aicraft and memorabilia. The Vulcan bomber was open to view (£2) which made a very memorable experience. There was a helicopter (puma) that has been in the process of being restored over a number of years. We were also able to view inside as well. The dedication of the volunteers is amazing. They are very helpful and willing to pass on their knowledge and experience. We spent a few hours just taking it all in, and thoroughly enjoyed it. The cafe was very clean, staff were obliging and food was lovely and reasonably priced.

A surprising gem - a lot more here to see and do than you might expect. Tons of aircraft on display, both indoors and outside, so if it's raining, no need to get wet. A lovely cafe too, which serves a decent, inexpensive lunch or afternoon tea. The highlight has to be a trip up inside the Vulcan - you can actually sit inside whilst a knowledgeable guide explains everything. This is a mere £2 - an absolute bargain when you consider the same at Duxford is £50!! Id say this has to be one of the best aircraft museums I've visited in a long time - well worth every penny of the £13.35 I paid to get in. Top tip - allow plenty of time to visit - the 4hrs I allowed wasn't really long enough as there's so much there to see. I'll definitely be back!

A superb museum that we hadn't been to in some years, so it was good to see the changes and new exhibits. The cafe was very good and provided a very good alternative to motorway services, the new exhibits (since our last visit in 2018!) were very interesting and the gentleman who gave us the tour of the Shackleton was brilliant too.

Absolutely fantastic day out for all ages! The Vulcan was well worth £2 to have a look inside, and the gentleman that took me in was so knowledgeable and happy to answer questions and talk about the aircraft. Will definitely be visiting again!

Plenty of planes some of them huge. . We visited on a rainy day which made it's a little damp outside so wrap up . .but plenty to see inside too huge hangers. . . Good information and shop full of good memorabilia. . Parking free. Cafe lovely, large, warm with excellent food at competitive prices. . Needed a good cuppa after . .!🍵

Absolutely loved it . I went here because I love airplanes plus I like military planes aswell I went to check every planes and even inside the garages I also got a cool toy that you can assemble I got the A-10A ITS 😎

We visited in the evening for the low bang fireworks and it was brilliant, my youngest enjoyed the indoor play area first before heading outside, there was a nice spacious marquee with plenty of seating and the food was delicious. We really enjoyed the fire artists and bonfire and the fireworks were brilliant, I had 3 children with me ages 7 to 14 and we all had the a great time 🥰 parking was so easy too a lovely stress free evening

Had a great day out at Pink Pig farm with 2 x six years old girls, an 18 month old and a 10 year child.The wooden rail carts and the foam party were the greatest ! The outdoor space is always a bonus when you have kids and there were extra activities on the field eg. badminton, hoop throwing, rope swing and zip line and more…It was a very hot day yesterday around 28 degrees?? The metal slide in the park was hot under the sun therefore the kids and unable to play on it, an open canopy or some kind of shade would have been useful also for the large bouncing pillows they were quite hot under the sun and unfortunately the kids soon give up on those. We would have liked more animals and more interaction with the all of the animals but understand this is difficult to safely provide. We had a great day out, great facilities at the farm. Enjoyed our picnic ,Stayed for there for nearly 6 hours.

Been to this farm twice and loved it both times. Lots of things to do, from sand play, to roleplay, to seeing animals etc. Not loads of animals but my daughter still loves the ones there, and with everything else there is to do you can definitely make a whole day out of it all. The pumpkin patch was great with lots of choices of pumpkins and lots of photo opportunities. Food is also yummy in the restaurant. I’m sure we will be back again soon.

Looking after my great granddaughter and wondered where to go. It was an hours journey to The Pink Pig Farm but I'm so pleased we went. If you're looking for a fantastic day out with children that isn't going to cost an absolute fortune this is the place to go. Inside and outside activities, snack bar and cafe. And of course the foam party where all children was so excited. Please, please give your kids a day to remember and go to Pink Pig Farm.

We come with two grandchildren 3 years and 8 years and both loved it lots for both ages there did not want to leave. And yes you do need Wellingtons towel But I did read that and we had them. The only thing I would say in the little wood aera could do with maybe little something for the children to find nothing in there for them once your in . But did not stop us off going in. We was at pink pig farm for 5 hours and loved it. And a big thank you for a lovely day and we be back . From Hull

Our first visit to pink pig farm, it certainly will not be our last. My grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed their time here, lots for them to do and see the animals. The Halloween event was excellent, far better than others we have been to over the past years. The pumpkin field was beautifully presented with lots of photo opportunities on hay bales pink tractor and much more. Alot of effort was put into theme, we love the graveyard with Michael jackson grave and Glenda 🤭 We had a wonderful day thank you 😊

Had a great time today at the pumpkin event. Lots to choose from and lots of photo opportunities. Making the witches potion was also a good activity. My little one enjoyed the indoor and outdoor play areas and it was nicely spread out. Would be nice to be able to feed the animals and maybe have a few more, but liked the fact that they were named. This was our first visit and we would definitely come back when the new play area is finished. Great value for money with all the different activities to choose from

We mainly went for the cathedral; which was amazing. The castle was ok too. The best things about it are the views from the external wall walk and the film and display of the Magna Carta. A very important document on which most world democracy is based.

Visited here while staying in the area. A STEEP walk up from Broadgate car park in the town…..get a taxi ? Its free to get into the ‘grounds’ and then pay more to do the ‘walls walk’ and more to see the Magna Carta/prison areas. A MUST is to join the guided walk to get the ‘chat’ about the various areas of the castle….So worthwhile. Cafe is very reasonable too.

Great castle! The grounds are lovely to walk around. Prisons inside the grounds are really informative. Great for all ages! Views from the top of the walk are amazing of the city

Well worth a visit. Definitely get tickets and go view the, prisons, Magna carta and the chapel. Take advantage of the tour, they guides are knowledgeable and so friendly. Also the ticket get you to walk the medieval wall walk. Cafe and gift shop also available.

Stunning views of the city. Wonderful to walk around, got to listen to some stories through the onsite tour guide. The prisons were intriguing (and a little depressing, but I suppose they are supposed to be) . Getting to see one of the last few copies of the Magna Carta is a great view into the past. I would suggest getting the Wall walk ticket. When we visited the list was down so we walked up the spiral staircase, which in itself was an adventure.

Lincoln castle is amazing. Incl. Prisons, Magna Gata, Walk on fabolous Castle Wall with dragons . Family tickets have discount. Carpark is just beside. Highly recommended.

Had a great time at the castle, saw the prisons and the original Magna Carta. Lovely walk around the top of the walls. Shame the lift was out of order, you have to be fit to climb the spiral staircase. Well worth a visit.

I just had a coffee and toast after feeling peckish early one morning on the way up Steep Hill. Really nice atmosphere, airy with lots of comfy seating. Staff were welcoming and pleasant and the coffee was excellent but cup so small I almost ordered a second cup. The sourdough toast was the best I’ve had in Lincoln cafes and this will definitely influence me to return. This establishment felt like a cafe/restaurant and it was only when writing the review that I realised you can book a room. Really handy for the Cathedral and Castle as it’s just a few minutes away.

Service was a bit slow but food was lovely. Very good value for money overall. Not taking a star off though for service as worked in hospitality industry for 16 years so can understand the challenges which can be impacted. Also lovely latte coffees too was worth the money overall.

Was to use a Scottish Term 'Puggled' after trudging up the lower part of the the Steep Hill in Lincoln and I gratefully spotted this establishment just shortly before I need the defibrillator. When we entered we were met by really friendly staff who got us to a table with nice comfy seating. We ordered Tea, Smoked Salmon Bagel and a Sausage Bap. The tea was real leaf tea and was really refreshing, my brother complimented the Sausage Bap through a full mouth and the Smoked Salmon Bagel was delicious with an ample supply of cream cheese. This is a delightful place full of character with a really relaxed atmosphere and professional and helpful staff, if you are passing and in need of refreshment, give it a try.

Popped in to use the cafe. Super friendly staff and excellent coffee at very reasonable cost. Very relaxing vibe. Will definitely return when next in Lincoln... Oh and dog friendly too!!

Had lunch here today. Cheese baguette had no butter on and was dry. The chicken on sourdough was nice however there was only half a slice of Sourdough toast with that smallest salad and no crisps. They did bring them when I asked as per menue. All in all not worth the price.

We parked just down from the apartments which worked out well with 24 hour parking. The apartment was warm, comfortable and very clean in a perfect location for down town and the historic area around the cathedral. It is on a steep hill, but is about halfway up so not too tiring either way! It was a lovely quiet location with a tuneful wren outside in the early evening singing away. A handy table and chairs are outside your door too. We liked the kitchenette and would have made use of it had we stayed longer.

Only had a coffee but it was very good, and a great location (providing you are happy with hills)

I’m a big fan of cathedrals, and all across Europe they have their own flavour and style. Lincoln follows the Italian cathedral tradition of an enormous (and I really mean enormous) facade. And you can see it’s a facade, it overlaps the edges of the cathedral, but it’s still impossible not to be awed by the scale. No matter where you stand, yo aren’t going to fit that facade onto Yor camera, unless you’re using an ultra wide angle. It’s that big. So the facade is quite unique - Wells has something similar but Wells cathedral would fit in your pocket, yo have to be careful almost not to sit on it by accident. So Lincoln takes this facade to the nth degree, and it’s worth seeing for that. You’ll only see similar things in Milan, and (in a very different style) in Florence. The area around the cathedral is nice too - very traditional, cobbles, steep ungainly streets, closely packed cottages and townhouses climbing their way up these steep streets. This centre around the cathedral is the best bit of the town- the rest is somewhat modernised and has lost that air, so to see the real old Lincoln, you want to be around the cathedral. And the cathedral itself is worth a visit inside and around. I think there are prettier cathedrals - York for one, and more decorated inside (e.g. Ely) but Lincoln does a classic job with a large space. And it has layers of windows that breathe space into the building, it really needs to be experienced in person. And because Lincoln is not on the general tourist trail, you have it much more to yourself. So it’s peaceful, and occasionally, they hold some reasonably priced, and well-chosen concerts.

Visited the cathedral multiple times and what a beautiful place it is! Indulged in the tour, incredibly insightful and fascinating. The tour guide (Believe it was Dorothy, older woman with glasses and red earrings) was a joy to listen to and learn from, and incredibly knowledgeable. The tour was engaging and fun, with all questions being answered. The cathedral is stunning for a building that's a millennia old, and buildings like this need to be preserved for future generations to love and enjoy.

Very impressive on multiple levels. Most importantly of course there is the amazing architecture and rich history. But there is more. The absence of pews or chairs in the nave is refreshing, making it so much easier to imagine what this imposing space looked like in medieval times. They allow dogs, and dogs there were. Somehow this really enhances the welcoming feel of the place. Then there is the most amazingly beautiful Stations of the Cross, a modern work in wood comprising a generous fifteen works. I am a lapsed Catholic and agnostic, but I felt Christ’s suffering through it - a moving and somewhat surprising experience. Last, but certainly not least, we enjoyed one of the best tours I have ever experienced. Our guide, Christine, gave us insight in both architecture and history with deep knowledge and humour, and a particular sensitivity to the younger members of our audience that was very pleasing. All in all definitely a five star experience!

Amazing Cathedral, still baffles me how they managed to construct buildings like this all those years ago. You can get in for free but you have to pay to walk around once you're inside, which was a bit pricey; £25 for two. That's not a guided tour, which you can book for an additional cost. Either way it's definitely worth a visit

Majestic monument at the top of Lincoln town, breathtaking architecture both inside and out. Serene peaceful beautiful and check out "Queen" Pat one of the volunteers we actually met on a local bus driven by Colin

Historical place well worth the visit. Step back in time to medieval England.and the ruling church classes! Well preserved history. Activities for children too. Entry is good if you opt for the season pass, one payment for all year...

I love that cathedral. It was amazing experience to visit place full of history. I spent over one hour walking around and inside of cathedral. Beautiful architecture.

This is free to visit and part of the Hull Museum Quarter. There are several old shop interiors, which have been rescued from throughout the city and these have been recreated into a street scene complete with old trams along with exhibitions of other old transport types such as horse carriages and bicycles. Good for all ages.

An absolutely brilliant day out looking around all the museums, the street life has a amazing collection and some very well designed scenes, well worth a visit #History #Hull #Daysout

Iv been taking my grandson to the museum to do the activity sessions in the holiday and he's been loving the crafting sessions that are on at present . The sessions are brilliant and the volunteers and staff have been wonderful and patient with him . He is very shy and nuero divergent so he has trouble interacting with people , they have adapted to his needs and he is always wanting to visit . Beautiful museum.. We love looking round all the displays. Very well presented with things to do to educate both young and old. Well done .

Brilliant museum! One of the best I've been too. Didn't think I'd be bothered with carriages upstairs but it was really well done.

Absolutely amazing museum! Such fabulous theming. Was so interesting seeing all the different old shops and transportation.

Free entry. Interesting attraction, collection including old bicycles & cars & recreated old shops. Worthy of an hour or so of your time.

Fantastic museum, plenty to do and very child friendly. Lots of interactive areas to keep everyone entertained and the exhibits are very well maintained.

Brilliant day out for all. We've been going for 13 years since our daughter was 18 months and even now as a teenager she loves it. Animals and information amazing, the café is superb and good value plus the price of a ticket includes as many return trips as you can make in a year. Simply the best!

This place is truly fantastic. Quite pricey for tickets initially but when you factor in that they can be used for a whole year, it means it's amazing value. A great mix of history, geography, geology and biology that would get the most disinterested person interested. So many different animals can be seen and it is obvious that they are all extremely well looked after. The gift shop is very well priced with lovely friendly staff. Would give this place a 100% approval rating!

I visited The Deep in Hull today, and overall, it was a pleasant experience, though there are a few things to keep in mind. Personally, I feel the ticket price is a bit high, especially considering what’s inside. However, one good thing is that the ticket is valid for a whole year and allows multiple entries, which makes it worthwhile if you plan to visit again. Inside, the aquarium is clean and well-maintained, but I would suggest not to expect too much in terms of variety or size of sea creatures. There were baby sharks, which were interesting to watch, and the penguins were absolutely adorable—definitely the highlight of the visit. The jellyfish displays were beautiful and mesmerizing under the lights. However, I was expecting to see more large or medium-sized fish, which were mostly missing. The surroundings are nice, offering lovely views of the river and Hull cityscape. The cafeteria serves good British food, and it’s a nice spot to relax for a while after walking through the exhibits. Parking could be a challenge on weekends—the car park was full when I arrived, probably because it was Sunday, and it’s also quite expensive at £5. Overall, it’s worth a one-time visit, especially for families with kids.

Great afternoon, no queues, booked a 1pm slot. Great exhibits, really enjoyed seeing the themed areas. Food & drink averagely priced & plenty of choice. Parked in overflow car park, £4.50 on top of ticket price.

We had a fantastic time at the deep. Our two kids loved it. It was so good we made use of the yearly pass tickets and went back the following morning. I would like to specially thank Mia who sat and talked our two kids for ages. Telling them all about the fish in the shallow reef tank. You really made the day memorable for them. Thank you so much.

Flawless aquarium, provides great info on the evolution of marine life. Also great views of the Humber. Best part is the annual pass so you can visit at anytime for a year. Great gift shop as well (I particularly enjoyed the tracker bracelets.) Will definitely be visiting again.

What a great place and a lovely change from sea life. Kids really enjoyed this place and we spent a whopping three and a half hours here. There is plenty to see and loads of interactive stations with a ton of information and different ways for the kids to experience and learn. Seeing the penguins were nice (although they didn't look particularly happy today) and the jelly fish room was a real treat. Was great to see and experience all stages of jelly fish growth from egg to fully grown. What was nice was how spacious this attraction was even though there were quite a lot of a people - only one small area felt a bit of a squeeze (to see the axolotl) but everywhere else was nice spacious and clean. The saw fish a huge attraction and incredible to see. And whilst I was disappointed with the size of the walk through tunnel at the end, the scenic lift made it all worthwhile. Highly recommended and with our 12 month free pass well definitely be visiting again (hopefully a few times) in the coming year.

What a fantastic place to see the amazing bird life. The pathways are thoughtfully set out in order to view all the cliffs. I went at Ganet season. An amazing spectacular. Will definitely return for the Puffins

Fantastic views and walks. Well worth a visit. £8 entry fee for non members. Friendly staff, great cafe, shop & toilets. Binocular hire available

We are new to RSPB and this is a sight that has been mentioned to us on numerous occasions so my husband and I decided to pay the site a visit on a trip to Whitby. FANTASTIC, the facilities at the visitors centre are good, toilets, cafe, shop and picnic tables. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Wonderful walks and the birds didn't disappoint, Gannets galore it was great to see. We will be back. Had a fabulous day out.

They have a wide selection of vegan sandwiches with one being gluten free AND vegan (5 sandwiches out of a total of about 13), cakes (gf and vegan available) and drinks. They do a wicked hot choc with oat or soya milk and you can add vegan marshmallows and cream. A large selection of gifts, bird feeders, books, toys, jigsaw puzzles, clothing and binoculars to name a few. All before you get to the amazing sites and sounds of the birds. Definitely worth a visit!

Too many pieces of land in England are fenced round, with the public either banned or charged to enter through a gate on a variety of pretexts. Land that should belong to all of us, or at least land on which we should have a right to walk or cycle and perhaps even camp. In Sweden, allemansrätte is the Right of Public Access, and in Norway, allemannsretten is the Right to Roam. Nearer home, the Land Reform (Scotland) Act of 2003 allows individuals to roam freely across most of Scotland’s landscapes, regardless of land ownership. These are fundamental principles that give everyone the freedom to access and enjoy nature, even on private land if it is uncultivated. At Bempton in East Yorkshire, the cliffs, the land and footpath along the cliffs, the sea birds and the sea should be available to all without raising money from them. The RSPB charged £8 per person in August (ostensibly for ‘parking’), while members park for free. Membership costs a voluntary subscription of ‘from £5 per month’, some of the money going towards the salaries of site wardens. As Bempton was also making money from its gift shop and café, a £16 entry fee seems excessive. And with no receipt given, who knows who has paid and who hasn’t? What does the site at Bempton do to benefit the birds, many facing serious climate-change threats to their survival? I asked if the presence of groups of noisy people on the cliff tops, some of them leading dogs, deters birds from nesting (which is why they come), particularly the puffins who make their burrows on the grassy top of the cliff. I got no answer from the wardens. Ironically, there is a public footpath right along the length of the cliffs but the RSPB restricts access to it and indeed does not mention that it exists! The public path runs for 12 miles from Flamborough village past the RSPB site to Speeton, with a possibility of parking at either end.

Absolutely stunning, amazing views. Great safe viewing platforms for looking out at the sea and bird colonies. Friendly and helpful volunteers, managed expectations well on what can possibly be seen (e.g. Puffins had left the area as they are usually there earlier than end of July when we visited). Cafe is clean, nice food and friendly atmosphere. Prices slightly higher than some places however quality and freshness cant be faulted.

Lovely time walk along the cliffs spotting the sea birds. We were also treated to an amazing rainbow and whale sightings! The volunteers along the cliff top were lovely and informative!

We had a very enjoyable visit. The hall is very well curated and maintained, the staff welcoming and knowledgeable. The gardens in particular the walled garden were beautiful. The Humboldt penguins and zoo are an additional attraction. You can also leave to walk along the headland to Danes Dyke or get a tourist road train into Bridlington and return for the car.

Sewerby hall it's self is closed from the end of September week days but open weekends. However the gardens and grounds are open all week free of charge even though it's autumn the gardens are still beautiful and well worth a visit. The walled gardens is a must visit with a excellent garden shop selling plants for a great price.The Zoo is also open and has a small charge of £4 for a adult to visit. The zoo is small but has birds, penguins, pigs, goats, donkeys,horses,larmas ect. There is a cafe and beautiful walks along the cliffs with views to Flamberhead and Bridlington. The land train runs from Sewerby hall to Bridlington aswell. I would highly recommend a visit Sewerby hall and is suitable for anyone.

Check website to see what's open\on. Large free car park, woods, play area, walk to see the sea (careful as erosion at the edge) there's a land train too. Interesting walk round the hall, a zoo with rescued coatis, pigs, birds etc nice cafe too after walking round the gardens. Great day out!

Lovely visit today. There is something here for everyone. The hall itself is superb with great AV. Fabulous story. The gardens are beautiful and the zoo will educate and entertain any age. Big car park and good cafe facilities. Excellent day out all round.

Great hidden gem. Travelled over from beverley not really knowing what to expect. Was pleasantly surprised. Ample parking, lots of activities for all ages, whether it's viewing the walled gardens, exploring the zoo, enjoying some quality good or simply sitting on a bench enjoying the views and the sea air. Everyone was super friendly snd helpful with directions. A very good playground for ages up to 12. Family visit and would highly recommend.

Lovely house and gardens with entry included in the estate entrance price (rather than a seperate charge as seen at some places). Zoo area is small in size but well worth a visit. Nice cafe and outdoor seating area, sausage rolls delicious and great value. Play area for kids, as well as outdoor activities including a free small 18 hole putting area. Staff friendly and helpful.

Easy to find free parking. Great scenery lovely place to explore. Cafe can be busy but I found the food worth the wait. If you want you can pay to see the small zoo on site and look around inside the house.

What an amazing nostalgic cinema, we absolutely loved it. It was a pavilion originally and converted in 1920, so you can imagine Pathe news being showing on the war years. The decor is all original including an organ that would play at the intermission. Lots of leg room and very comfortable.

I don't go to any other cinema now. I love this place so much. The whole place just feels special. It's cheaper than other cinemas but equally comfy. I also love that lots of showings have intermissions. Why cinemas stopped doing that, I don't know. The chap playing the organ is always an unexpected delight. More than just a cinema, this is an experience!

Absolute fantastic place if you want to travel back in time and you're looking for something totally romantic then this is the place. Just close your eyes and soak up the atmosphere it's brilliant. Price's are extremely good for gge tickets and for snacks and drinks. Also there is an old fashion intermission for a toilet or drinks break superb. Loved every minute of it.

Quaint 1950s cinema with lots of leg room and comfy seats. Strange to have an intermission half way through the movie to refresh your snacks, go to the loo or just be entertained by the organist rising from beneath the stage. Definitely worth a visit just for the experience

What a fantastic cinema experience. Like stepping back in time in the best possible way. Lovely friendly staff and nice snacks on sale. You even get an interval and the piano playing. Will def go again.

Fantastic throwback to old fashioned cinema with quirky cinematic nostalgia items on display, comfortable seating, an Interval with the bonus of an organist rising up in front of the screen. Absolutely loved visiting this cinema. Will be back for more.

Absolutely brilliant! Cannot believe we stumbled across this place, a hidden gem! Traditional cinema, beyond reasonable ticket and refreshment prices, an all round wonderful experience!

We visited the museum and the ship in front of it. Thanks to the family ticket, it wasn't expensive. The guide on the ship had a lot to say, and the tour lasted an entertaining hour. The museum is beautifully designed, but without visiting the ship, you'd miss a lot. The idea of looking for a job at the entrance is nice and fitting. The many different rooms are entertaining and authentically designed. We weren't entirely sure whether the smells in the museum were intentional. We spent a total of just under three hours here and can recommend the place.

We had an amazing time visiting the Ross Tiger with John! I definitely recommend the experience. The immersive museum for all ages was a wonderful discovery. Coming from Sheffield it was a good day trip

Loved it - it combined the old and the new well. The mocked up trawler and its various cabins was so well done, especially it's subtle movement as if at sea. Lots of activities for ALL ages. Very good value for money.

Love the fishing heritage museum! it’s been a long time since I’ve been so I took a friend and we both did the Ross Tiger tour. Robert Mogg did a fantastic tour for us on her. I definitely see a lot of improvements to the museum and Ross Tiger, it’s really good to see. Keep up the good works guys👏🐟

We had a fabulous morning here, the gent behind the desk was super helpful and knowledgeable. The lady in the cafe made sure my coffee was 'just right'. For the price it represents excellent value for money. Definitely recommend. Plenty for kids too if you've got them! Toilets, parking and disabled access available.

Lovely experience and good interactions not very busy as we went 10am Sunday morning and spent about an hour there. You can spend longer if you read all the information that’s about. But overall it’s a nice little museum.

Give yourself two hours to really enjoy the talks, videos and reading material. Take in the amazing atmosphere and really try to imagine yourself at sea, catching fish for a living from a young age and earning lots of money. Then make sure you attend the amazing Ross Tiger trawler tour. Make sure to collect the fish cake recipe from the skipper fisherman Bob Mogg, who's grandma is personified in the skipper home lounge in the museum.

Called in here while visiting the area and was lucky enough that the Lancaster Bomber was on one of its days/times for making a taxi run out of the hangar……GREAT experience. Ring and check for days/times before you visit. If you are interested in WW2 then there are LOTS of experiences and MASSES of reading…..allow a lot time (all day) if you want the full experience. Basic but cheap and acceptable marquee cafe at present while work is ongoing for the new one.

Great time on bank holiday Monday. Being inside an iconic airplane such as the Lancaster is a lot of people's dreams. I must say it does live up to the dreams and gives you a great insight as to what those young airmen went through. So brave so young, may we never forget.

Over recent years we have taken a liking to visiting war museums, there are many over this East Side of the country, this one was well worth a visit with the Lancaster bomber just one of it's main attractions. Certain days you can pay for a 'taxi' ride down a large field in the bomber You can sit in the gun turrets of choice. All be it a little expensive on this occasion being a pensioner. The experience of taxiing down a run way with a 4 engines running in this iconic world war 2 bomber must be fantastic. We are going to save up and come back for another visit and take this once in a lifetime opportunity. All the money raised is put back into making this Lancaster air worthy. So a great cause to keep this plane alive for the forseable future for all to see. You can see the craftspeople building and manufacturing new sections of plane in the large hangar. For us this was also a great place to visit as it has a Campra motorhome aire in the grounds, we stayed for two nights, safe and peaceful 👍 Check out there website.

Absolutely brilliant. To visit Just Jane and her smaller sisters was just wonderful . We will return. This is fabulous day out particularly for those whose relatives once flew these beautiful old ladies. Great volunteers

Had a brilliant morning here. Came here really for one thing, to see the Lancaster taxi run. Totally amazing to witness this, the noise, the history, the size of the aircraft. What was also impressive was all displays with the information relating to the aircraft and airfields in the local area.

Visiting this was a purely off the cuff last minute decision due to rain, however this place deserves a lot more respect than that. A fascinating, detailed incredible place with some sombering glimpses into our aviation past. Couple that with an unexpectedly delicious breakfast and you have a great half day out. Definitely not one to miss.

If you're interested in ww2 aviation history then this is a must. Lancaster and Mosquito plus various other rescued aero parts with the history to explain why they are there. Unfortunately planes were in hangar at visit so couldn't get decent photos but didn't spoil a great day. There is a cafe on site. Money goes to support work on the aircraft.
