York
Whether you’re squeezing through the leaning buildings of the Shambles (the real-life Diagon Alley from Harry Potter) or channelling your inner Norse warrior at the JORVIK Centre, Yorkshire’s county town is definitely a bit different.
Cool things for kids include the rollercoasters and Nigerian dwarf goats (yup, that’s a thing) at The Web Adventure Park, and York Dungeon’s 2000 years of horrible history. You’ll love chilling out with a beer (or gin) in the 18th-century Eagle and Child pub. And everyone loves stuffing themselves at York’s Chocolate Story.
And for something a bit different? Hunker down in a 60s Cold War bunker, buy your own spook at York Ghost Merchants, or snap a selfie at Whip-Ma-Whop-Ma-Gate (ooh-er Missus!). With more attractions per square inch than lots of bigger cities, York’s a great place to get away for a weekend.
