Best Spas in Shipton by Beningbrough

"What: The clue is in the title with this one, which is very definitely grand. Housed within York’s only five-star hotel, Hudson's is a destination for occasion dining (unless you’re fabulously wealthy of course) on account of its opulent surrounds and pricey tasting menus. The five- and nine-course set menus change with the seasons and, like all fine dining restaurants worth their salt, make full use of locally-sourced and foraged ingredients presenting a collection of modern British dishes."

"The Grand Hotel & Spa Stylish rooms set within a Grade II listed building. Rooms are big and plush. Enjoy the onsite restaurant, spa and heated swimming pool.Check availability, prices and book"

"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. As its name suggests, this hotel offers one of the best spa and wellness treatments in Leeds with fantastic facilities such as a massive indoor swimming pool, hot tub, sauna, steam room, and fitness club."

"Last but certainly not least, Thorpe Park Spa Leeds, a colossal Leeds hotel and spa. This Leeds spa isn’t shy when it comes to its facilities, we’re talking seven treatment rooms, relaxation lounge, manicure & pedicure stations, swimming pool, colour therapy sauna, steam room, indoor whirlpool, outdoor terrace and even afternoon tea!.

"Thorpe Park Hotel and Spa is a modern take on a luxury spa, just outside the hustle and bustle of the city centre.

All visitors receive access to the fitness centre too."

"The clue’s in the name: this sturdy Regency country house is an Eden for green fingers. It’s set among 300 acres (121ha) of woodland and glorious landscaped gardens. 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."

"Blending natural history with archaeology and more, it’s hard not to be overwhelmed by how much there is to see and take in. Everything from Roman artefacts and detailed descriptions of the history of the region, to Iron Age jewellery, extinct species, fossils, and star pieces including the Viking sword and York Helmet reside here. Take a stroll through the ruins of St Mary’s Abbey in the Museum Gardens, and don’t miss the oldest working observatory in Yorkshire, hidden by trees in front of the museum, with an engaging astrology exhibition of its own."

"There are so many play spaces for kids scattered throughout. My two loved the Dinosaur area where they put on these cute little dinosaur backpacks which had a few bits in like magnifying glasses. They loved hunting for fossils in the fake soil, dressing up as knights, walking on the original medieval mosaic floor and playing with the wooden knight’s castle."

"The Yorkshire Museum chronicles millions of years of Yorkshire history, from the Jurassic period through to Viking and medieval times. Highlights of the eclectic collection include a 4.5-billion-year-old meteorite that came crashing to Earth in 1881, the hair bun of a Roman teenager, and a Viking sword."

"This historic site was discovered by accident, when it was scheduled to be destroyed. The oldest parts of Barley Hall date from about 1360, but until the 1980s the house was hidden under a more modern brick façade. The medieval house was once home to the Priors of Nostell and the Mayor of York."

"If you want to take a photo wearing a traditional medieval cape in some beautiful surroundings (as well as learn more about the relationship of science, religion and chemistry in the Middle ages in York), head to the Barley Hall, where you can do all that."
