"Things to Do, Attractions"

"Stately homes may be two a penny in England, but you'll have to try pretty damn hard to find one as breathtakingly stately as Castle Howard, a work of theatrical grandeur and audacity set in the rolling Howardian Hills. This is one of the world's most beautiful buildings, instantly recognisable from its starring role in the 1980s TV series Brideshead Revisited and in the 2008 film of the same name (both based on Evelyn Waugh's 1945 novel of nostalgia for the English aristocracy)."

"Standing in the Howardian Hills to the west of Malton, Castle Howard is an outstanding example of English baroque, with a distinctive…"

"Thomas Atkinson, an 18th century English architect, is famous for remaking the Bishopthorpe Palace in York in the Gothic Revival style. Though a rather influential figure of his time, very little is known about Atkinson's private life. His house, located at 20 St. Andrewgate, is one of the sparse evidences of his life in York."

"A train station may seem like an unusual location to describe as ‘Instagrammable’ but York train station is far from ordinary. The beautiful building is home to some stunning pieces of architectural work, as well as modern film interest!. The bridge that connects the platforms at York train station is actually the one that Harry and Hagrid walk over in the first Harry Potter film!"

"02/06/2021: I honestly cannot fathom the amount of brain cells these people have clearly lost in their lifetime. Every time we have ordered, they have gotten the order wrong; mostly just not giving us the food we paid for. On top of that, when we called to complain, the man on the phone decided it was best to scream at us, claiming we were wrong and we didn’t see the food we hadn’t received."

"We have reopened our coffee shop with a breakfast and lunch menu, speciality coffee and cakes all available to sit in or take away. We have also reopened our bar on Thursday, Friday & Saturday nights until 11pm. On these nights we will be serving our New York style stonebaked pizzas – available for takeaway or eat in!"

"Located within the Poppleton Community Centre, the Poppleton Social offers delicious homemade cakes, sandwiches and coffee. It also has a great play area very nearby. To enjoy a pre or post cake walk, park at Poppleton Community centre, then walk out of the centre and turn left."

"Serving takeaway pizzas for collection Thursday, Friday & Saturday evenings 5pm-9pm – to pre-order, email [email protected] or call during opening hours."

"Dean’s Park offers fantastic views, a great place to stretch out and enjoy a break during a busy day, as well as soft drink and ice cream refreshments available during summer. You may also want to view nearby York Minster. There is an admission charge for entering this cathedral but it doesn’t cost anything to take in the magnificent exterior!"

"Located on the North side of the Minster, Dean’s Park is a quiet, green oasis offering incredible views of the Gothic Cathedral and the Minster Library. Some ruins of a 12th-century cloister – probably from the Old Palace – are still standing. While it originally was accessible only to members of the church, today it’s open to the public."

"A beautiful place to soak in the sun and enjoy an ice cream cone, Dean’s Park offers beautiful views and plenty of green, open space. Spread out a blanket and enjoy stunning views of the Minster and its Chapter House."
