"Thorpe Park Hotel and Spa is a stylish getaway that is well insulated and keeps the noise of the bustling city of Leeds out. The hotel creates a homely and elegant atmosphere with lush landscaping, a charming atrium courtyard where you can find fresh-baked goods, and guest rooms with neutral colours and upscale furniture.

In spring, you’ll encounter blazes of azaleas and ruby rhododendrons – no wonder honey from Rudding Park’s bees is on the menu at the funky Horto Cafe."

"Transporting you back in time, Flares nightclub is the place to go for 90s tunes and throwback fun. When it comes to nightclubs in York, don’t take Flares to seriously as it’s all about the cheesy music and colourful dance floor. This is the perfect venue for a girls night out or hen party where you want to dress up and singalong to hit songs and musical numbers."

"Famed for its Latino charm, Revolución de Cuba puts a new twist on brunch. You can get dishes like Huevos Rancheros, which combines spiced black beans, tomatoes, mushrooms, fried eggs, rum sauce and crispy patatas in a flour tortilla. The menu is available until 5pm every weekday, but you can make it bottomless at the weekend – it’s £25 per person from 10.30am to 2pm and that gets you one dish alongside free-flowing Bloody Marys, Mahou, mojitos, prosecco and soft drinks for two hours from when you order."

"If you’re craving a Latin fiesta then Revolucion de Cuba’s bottomless brunch might be the right option for you. At £22 per person, it’s one of the cheapest options you’ll find, and it’s available all week until 2 pm, so you don’t have to keep the fun to the weekend!. The sweetcorn fritters are particularly yummy, but there are a good number of options to line your stomach with."

"Revolucion de Cuba has a great holiday vibe and does a fantastic brunch!. Get a true taste of Cuba without having to leave the country, with the incredible food cooked fresh from their Cantina. You can choose from Cubano Benedict – eggs Benedict with a Cuban twist!"

"The Botanist is a great place to both eat and drink in York as it has such an extensive cocktail menu, as well as great foodie options, too. I’ve been to The Botanist on several different occasions, both with Matt, my friends and old work colleagues for our Christmas party last year and it’s delivered beyond my expectations every single time. I’d recommend: lamb kofta or chicken hanging kebabs (SO good) or the crispy chicken burger."

"One of the Best Bottomless Brunch destinations in York, located along the city’s busy Stonegate street. Stumble into the Botanist and you would be forgiven for thinking you had walked into a secret garden. Their menu is short and as sweet as their triple-layered french toastie, with veggie and vegans also looked after."

"The Botanist have a fresh new offering for brunch that you can upgrade to bottomless brunch if you would like (and what’s not to like?). You choose a dish from six different sections of the menu – each section has three options."

"The Stray is the largest of Harrogate's parks: comprising 200 acres of contiguous open land linking the spa town's curative springs and wells. The site dates back to 1778 when it was created from the forest of Knaresborough to link several of Harrogate’s springs together in one area but is now open grassland full of beautiful flowers. The Stray is in the centre of the town off Knaresborough Road and is free to access throughout the year."

"Moments away from the bustle of the town centre, the Stray has given the people of Harrogate somewhere peaceful to relax since it was created in 1778 from the forest of Knaresborough. Nothing can be purer than the air at Harrogate. Over the years the Stray has been used to graze livestock, turned into allotments and wheat fields during WWII, and it’s even been used as an airfield for light aircraft."

"The Stray is an area of around 200 acres of parkland in Harrogate which links the town’s spas and wells; it’s also the site of the original Tewit Well discovered by William Slingsby. In the 18th century, the park was bequeathed to the people of Harrogate by the Duchy of Lancaster to be forever unenclosed and makes a lovely spot to enjoy a picnic, an outdoor game or a walk."

"Meanwood Park is a 29-hectares area consisted of woodland, mown grass, stream and meadows. They have different attractions and facilities like Meanwood Valley Trail, nature reserve, playground, tennis courts, basketball courts and picnic areas. A perfect place for the family to have their quality time, kids would love to play on their children’s playground while their parents can do different sports activities like tennis or basketball."

"Enjoy a little fresh air with an invigorating walk around Chevin Forest Park, a short drive from Leeds overlooking the town of Otley. The walk shows off the best of Yorkshire’s natural scenery, taking in dramatic views, rocky outcrops and moorlands scattered with beautiful purple heather."
