Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in Ledston

"If you're looking for somewhere with a bit of history, then look no further than Kirkstall Abbey. The giant Gothic building is a former Cistercian monastery which was built in the 12th Century and the sheer scale of the structure is still breathtaking (and award-winning) in this day and age. Nowadays though, it embraces modern life with a monthly market and other events inside the walls of the Abbey, while the open spaces on the banks of the River Aire are the perfect spot to unwind."

"Ruined but prideful, forgotten but known, beautifully neglected — Kirkstall Abbey is a lot of things to a lot of people. This gorgeous piece of historic …"

"East 59th is one of Leeds' swankiest rooftop restaurants and bars, offering views of the city's gorgeous architecture including the historic Kirkgate Market. Grab a space on their outdoor terrace for jaw-dropping vistas, boujee brunch plates, and NYC-inspired cocktails come nightfall."

"Look no further than East 59th, a rooftop bar and restaurant channelling New York vibes. Venture up for one of the best bottomless brunches in the city, enjoyed in their chic dining room or out on their gorgeous terrace."

"Designed to resemble a New York rooftop bar and restaurant, this stylish hangout celebrates contemporary American dining. This means you can tuck into bottomless brunch from midday onwards any day of the week."

"Perched atop a grassy motte is Clifford’s Tower, which is one of the last remaining parts of York Castle. Originally built out of wood by the Normans, it was reinforced and rebuilt out of stone in the thirteenth century and the sturdy keep is now a popular tourist attraction in York. Wrecked by a massive explosion in 1684, its hollow, gutted interior was later used as both a prison and treasury."

"Seeing this amazing structure from the street is brilliant and free. It sits perfectly on top of its hill overlooking the city. It is almost all that remains of York Castle built by William the Conqueror and today is looked after by English Heritage"

"To see a fantastic panorama of York and take some great photos, head to the Clifford’s Tower. The entry price is a bit high for what the place has to order. However, it’s excellent for photos that you’re going to take there."

"Experience the heady heights of the Sky Lounge, perched atop the DoubleTree Hotel, this stylish cocktail bar offers breath-taking views whatever the weather. Treat yourself to afternoon tea while you look out over the city. During the weekend, the space at Sky Lounge transforms — with superb DJ’s playing the latest tracks — taking you into a whole new party place."

"On Saturdays and Sundays between 11 and 2, treat yourself to a Leeds bottomless brunch on a rooftop!. Sky Lounge’s brunch offers guests two courses as well as bottomless drinks and every option looks so good that you might struggle to choose. The vegan second-course option looks particularly delightful."

"Sitting pretty atop the DoubleTree by Hilton hotel, SkyLounge is one of the most glamorous restaurants with outdoor seating in Leeds. Expect floor-to-ceiling windows, panoramic views and a menu pairing signature cocktails with brunch, afternoon tea and more."

"Cosy, modern bar with great venue and music selection plus lots of variety of drinks. Address : 9 Wellington St, Barnsley S70 1SS, United Kingdom"

"Tucked away behind an inconspicuous gate and seemingly cut off from the rest of the town, the Church of the Holy Trinity is a fantastically atmospheric old building, having survived almost unchanged for the past..."

"The tunnels where the leisure and shopping facility is now were a mine in the thirteenth century. The location was also used as prison and during the Second World War was used as an air raid shelter. In the 1960s it was used as a location for dancing."

"An excellent vegetarian cafe, Goji is one of the city’s top-rated places to enjoy a vegan dish. This welcoming cafe is devoted to giving you healthy and sumptuous food, including vegan diets too. Having been providing the city with good food for a while now, this restaurant has a beautiful interior decor and a great atmosphere."

"Goji Cafe’s food is vegetarian, wholesome, nutritious and lovingly prepared from start to finish with many vegan options. We are passionate about the quality of our dishes. Open Tuesday to Sunday, 11am to 4pm."

"Goji Café is a vegetarian café and deli, just off the main square in York. They aim to bring you colourful, joyful and life-enhancing treats. The cafe is the place to meet with friends or work on your laptop."
