It's a lovely old house where you can have a nice meal or just coffee or tea and cakes and sit in beautiful surroundings both inside and out. It also has a spa if you want to treat yourselves to some 'me time'.
Well worth a visit, then you can go back to York city centre and be in the hustle and bustle of the city.

The Shambles (official name Shambles) is an old street in York, England, with overhanging timber-framed buildings, some dating back as far as the fourteenth century. It was once known as The Great Flesh Shambles, probably from the Anglo-Saxon Fleshammels (literally 'flesh-shelves'), the word for the shelves that butchers used to display their meat. As recently as 1872 twenty-five butchers' shops were located along the street, but now none remain.
Among the buildings of the Shambles is a shrine to Saint Margaret Clitherow, who was married to a butcher who owned and lived in a shop there at No. 10 Shambles. Her home is now a cufflinks shop, Cuffs & Co, and features the priest hole fireplace that ultimately led to her death.
Although the butchers have now vanished, a number of the shops on the street still have meat-hooks hanging outside and, below them, shelves on which meat would have been displayed. The shops currently include a mixture of eateries and souvenir sellers, but there is also a bookshop and a bakery.
There are quite a few streets that lead off the Shambles. It's quaint and interesting.

York Minster was established in 637, and is located on one of the most significant sites for Christianity in Europe. The Roman Emperor, Constantine (272-337 AD), was proclaimed Emperor while visiting the city, known then as Eboracum.
It is open for worship every day, and has many interesting activities and concerts going on there all year round.

There are nine bridges across the River Ouse within the city of York, and sixteen smaller bridges across the narrower River Foss. It's an interesting way to view the city by focusing on its bridges rather than anything else.
You get to take in a host of different areas, sights, sounds views and tastes!

AFter which you'll be sure to have a great night's sleep. On a lovely day it's a great walk, and you can paddle all the way there and back if you want to.

This is a wonderful place for several reasons. Not only for its stunning sea views but especially for its bird life. There are colonies of puffins here which are really interesting to see.
If you're a photographer you 'll have the chance to take some great pictures here. Also. it's peaceful and is a great place to go for relaxing downtime in the midst of nature.
it's probably only half an hour from Kilnwick so doesn't take ages to get there and well worth a trip.

Robin Hood’s Bay is a small fishing village and a bay located within the North York Moors National Park, five miles south of Whitby and 15 miles north of Scarborough on the coast of North Yorkshire.
It's unbelievably quaint with all of it's houses snuggled in together on the side of the cliff as it makes its way down to the sea. Take note: the road down to the sea is steep, so take your time, stop off at lots of coffee shops and pubs as you make your way down, and wear sturdy footwear!
You'll love it. It's so picturesque. A photographer's and artist's paradise. you can spend a lovely day here just meandering round the village and then going out onto the beach and looking out on the lovely view.

The ten-acre botanical Museum Gardens, around the Yorkshire Museum, stretch from the River Ouse up to the back of York Art Galley, and from Marygate on one side to Museum Street on the other.
Established in the 1830s by the Yorkshire Philosophical Society, these gardens are famous for their fantastic collection of trees, shrubs, perennials and bulbs.
Set in the stunning surroundings of the medieval ruins of St. Mary’s Abbey, this is a great space to meet friends and family and enjoy the peace and tranquillity that the gardens have to offer.
The Gardens has also recently incorporated its first Gardens Geocache and a full trail of Geocaches is expected to be introduced in the near future.
It's right in the middle of the city, and easy to get to, not being that far from the train station. It is also close to the Art Gallery.

This is in the centre of York and provides you with a really great experience of what it was like to live in Viking times and how they influenced York and Britain in general.
At JORVIK Viking Centre you are standing on the site of one of the most famous and astounding discoveries of modern archaeology. Between the years 1976-81 archaeologists from York Archaeological Trust revealed the houses, workshops and backyards of the Viking-Age city of Jorvik as it stood nearly 1,000 years ago. These incredible discoveries enabled them to build the JORVIK Viking Centre on the very site where the excavations had taken place, enabling you to get a real feel for what it was like to live in those times.
