The best things to do in Leeds with kids
"One of the most complete medieval abbeys in the UK, Kirkstall Abbey was founded over 800 years ago as a Cistercian Abbey. It’s another great free day out in Leeds with kids, with regular family events and activities during holidays, including trails and art packs. Whenever you visit, you can stroll through the ruined abbey buildings and the lovely parkland on the banks of the river, plus more about the monks who lived here, on display at the visitor centre."

Wonderfully Scenic Riverside Bars In and Around Leeds
"A longtime favourite of Leeds’ nightlife, Aire Bar has a nice little spot by the River Aire on The Calls. Delve into the iconic arched rooms, grab a drink at the bar and head out onto the overhanging terrace for a close up of the waterfront. They have a range of local breweries on tap, such as Ilkley, Ossett and Saltaire, that will go down a storm on their balcony, and if you get peckish, Yorkshire Burgaire Company will sort you out."

Restaurants With A View In Leeds
"For a restaurant by the river in Leeds, it's over to Aire Bar, the charming eatery housed in a Grade-II listed building with sights of the water. Its vibe is pretty cool and casual, which is great for a catch-up with mates - though we can find any excuse to work through their burger menu."
