Best Nature and Wildlife Areas in Pollington

"Boasting the largest collection of tropical plants outside Kew Gardens, Tropical World is also popular for its adorable meerkats, terrapins, turtles, tropical birds and butterflies (which are free to flutter around the attraction). As the name suggests, the tropical origins of its inhabitants mean the attraction is kept warm and humid - but you soon adapt to the balmy setting. Tropical World, Princes Avenue, Roundhay LS8 1DF (within Roundhay Park)."

"Finally, this indoor attraction is home to one of the largest collections of tropical plants anywhere in the UK, and a whole host of exotic creatures including crocodiles, butterflies, piranhas, and meerkats. The different areas will take you on a thrilling journey through mangroves, desert and rainforest, exploring the habitats of some amazing animals. The rainforest canopy and waterfall areas are a particular highlight."

"The Tropical World at Roundhay Park has become one of the most coveted family attractions in Leeds. Situated just three miles from the city centre, this terrain is great to take a trek through the rainforest, relax in the simulated environs of Australia and to take a quick excursion through the desert. This is one of the best ways to learn the tropical habitat...Read more"

"This fabulous wetland, surrounded on three sides by the River Aire, can be found west of Leeds. The car park is located off the A657."

"Perfect for a nice walk to escape the city’s frenzy for a few hours.Moss Bridge Road, Rodley, Leeds LS13 1HP"

"Here’s one of the best farms in Leeds for kids, but with a difference. Hope Pastures is all about rescuing and rehabilitating horses, ponies and donkeys. After they’ve managed to do that, they let people come and visit the animals seven days a week, learning all about them and how tp look after them as you go."

"A survivor of Yorkshire’s ancient fenlands, dating back 15,000 years, Askham Bog is considered one of the most ecologically diverse sites in the UK. The bog itself is made of boulder clay and fen peat, while the land around it is home to roe deer, foxes, newts and frogs. Plants include royal ferns, rare gingerbread sedge and whole rivers of water violets."

"Veggies don’t have to miss out on a good old fashioned chippy tea, thanks to JJ’s Vish and Chips. There’s no actual fish on the menu, instead, you can try deep-fried fillets of Tofish, made from tofu, or Vish, made from banana blossom. But that’s just the start, because they do meat-free versions of all the classics, including Sosage, Scam-pi and Fricken Nuggets."

"Chippy food can often be pretty boring when you’re veggie or vegan. You’re sort of limited to chips and a veggie burger if you’re lucky. Well, that’s about to change for you, as at JJ’s the entire menu is vegan friendly."

"The Yak & Yeti Gurkha Restaurant brings the many tastes and flavours of Nepal to York’s ancient streets. A family run eatery just around the corner from the Minster, you can tuck into plates of Malekha Ko Machha (spicy salmon curry) or Nepali Tarkari (slow-cooked, spicy veg) for less than a tenner. If it’s just turned payday and you’ve got a little extra dollar to drop, we recommend ordering one of the set meals for £14, with enough food for two."

"I’ll be honest, the portions look really small when they come out so I was a little concerned but they pack a punch. I had a lamb dish, whilst others had chicken or salmon and we all said how much more of the main ingredient there was in the dish than you often get. Perfectly spiced, great tastes and good service I would definitely recommend a trip here."

"It’s not every day that you stumble upon a Nepalese restaurant, but York has just one for you. The yak and yeti Gurkha Restaurant is an authentic Nepalese restaurant that serves unique, flavorful South Asian dishes. The dishes may seem small, but looks can be deceiving in this case because the portions are actually plentiful."

"This renowned restaurant with currently 16 locations offers high quality Pan-Asian cuisine. In Doncanster is located inside Frenchgate Shopping Centre where you can eat as much as you like for one fixed price at the lunch buffet, but Cosmo also serves evening meals from 5:00 pm."

"Aagrah has got its formula down to a tee: the Shipley-based chain now has locations across the North. Its roots lie in the late ’70s, when the family-run restaurant served their curries and other dishes to a public still suspicious of South Asian cuisine. Of course, those attitudes are long done, and Aagrah is a perennial favourite among Yorkshire diners."

"Indian restaurant chain Aagrah is open for delivery and offers plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Vegetarian specials include Lahori Cholay (chickpea curry), Balti Paneer, vegetable korma and vegetable madras."
