Absolutely fabulous museum, so much to do and see. So much history in this museum, with live reenactments that help children understand how it may have been in the past. Huge displays! The stairwell was epic-with swords, pikes, spears and armour. Interactive displays. Even an full sized armoured elephant and horses! A fun photo op as you enter, a chance to take your picture with a dragon, holding on to a sword as if to slay it. We plan to visit the museum again when we can take more time over the exhibits and enjoy their other live performances.

Absolute must see. This abbey dates back at least 800 years…. Absolutely incredible, such a beautiful place to visit. There’s a museum as well although we ran out of time for that. There’s a cute coffee shop and souvenir shop as you enter. It’s by donation so pay what you feel fair. Carpark is a short walk over the road from the abbey, opposite the small museum. Free parking.

Fantastic experience! There were so many amazing exhibitions to explore, each offering something unique and thought-provoking. We really enjoyed taking our time browsing the art gallery, admiring the diverse range of artwork on display. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, happy to share insights and discuss the exhibitions in detail, which made the visit even more engaging. The atmosphere was welcoming, and it was clear that a lot of care and effort goes into curating the space. We had a great time and would highly recommend a visit to anyone who appreciates art and culture! Best of all it's free! 😃

I went to the theater on my own, which was incredibly hard. I lost my wife to cancer just 6 months ago, and this is the kind of show she would have absolutely adored. We always loved going to different shows together, and I made a promise to her—to keep doing the things we loved, to keep living for the both of us. I watched Kinky Boots which was an absolute triumph – a show that’s as bold and beautiful as it is moving and meaningful. From the moment the lights came up, I was completely captivated. The performances were phenomenal, the energy electric, and the story – oh, the story – struck right to the heart. As a member of the LGBTQ community, this show resonated with me on such a personal level. I cried – not just at the emotional depth of the narrative, but because I saw parts of my own journey, as well as those of friends reflected on stage. The struggle for acceptance, the sting of rejection, the courage it takes to be unapologetically yourself – it was all there, handled with such authenticity, grace, and heart. But what truly makes Kinky Boots so special is how it blends this deep emotional core with joy, humour, and hope. It’s laugh-out-loud funny at times, wonderfully cheeky, and endlessly heartwarming. It reminds you that love, understanding, and acceptance really can change the world – one step at a time, in a fabulous pair of heels. This wasn’t just a show – it was a celebration of identity, resilience, and community. A standing ovation doesn’t do it justice. If you have the chance to see it, do. It’s a powerful, affirming, and unforgettable experience. Sitting there alone was extremely painful, and I felt an overwhelming sadness when I arrived, missing my wife beside me so deeply. I cried quietly in the darkness, not just because of the show’s moving moments, but because she wasn’t there to share them. But somehow, through the laughter, the music, and the message of hope and acceptance, the show gently lifted my spirits. It reminded me that joy can still be found, even through the grief, and for that, I’m truly grateful. The cast of performers are fabulous! And the show made me miss going to drag shows with my sweet wife. We loved those! The theatre itself is lovely. It has a real sense of character. Its period features and traditional charm give it a warm, welcoming feel, and the architecture adds a touch of elegance to the whole experience. The kind of place that adds to the enjoyment of the evening without overshadowing the performance itself. Overall, a fantastic experience. I've even booked myself a ticket to the Sounds of 60s show! And yes, alone but I can do this!

We didn't get too much time to explore everywhere, but what I did see I liked very much. Breathtaking views from the garden of the house. Had a lovely cream tea with sandwiches, cakes and scones. Very substantial and part of an organised coach holiday. Not sure how much it would have been had we gone there on our own. The house was interesting and we were lucky to visit on a day where the weather was great.

Fantastic food, flavours i've never experienced before. Excellent service. Upstairs can be a bit loud with large groups dining, conversation was difficult at times but didn't spoil our enjoyment of a wonderful meal. Next time i'll request a quieter table downstairs though.

Heard about the steak and fries offer for £16 so thought we’d check it out. Steak is done perfectly to my requested liking, generous portion of chips and their in house made butter complements the meal perfectly. We also got it with peppercorn sauce which was well made and perfectly seasoned. Service is good too. First time I came for this and would come again for this deal and possibly to try other things on the menu! Very naturalistic interior and chilled atmosphere too.

Sublime food, exquisite surroundings, slightly unnerving but I guess that's deliberate. Had the 6 for 60 menu and worth every penny. Thank you to Michael O'Hare for giving us experiences like this to look forward to.

Stuzzi is a fantastic value for money small plates Italian right in the middle of Leeds. You can tell that a lot of effort has been put into the menu and quality ingredients are used. The larger pasta dishes are the stars of the show, perfectly cooked pasta that you just want more of. The cocktails are also great, some fantastic combinations you wouldn't think of! The price is also really reasonable for a small plates concept. Would definitely recommend.

The food was really excellent. We got a sharing-meal for three or four people. Can’t remember exactly but there was plenty of food and lots of variety in the dishes. Would probably visit Leeds again just to go here! The tables could be a bit bigger considering so many people get sharing meals!
