Enjoy York for a special city break
Now is the time to enjoy a special York City Break
York has to be your first choice destination for a really special city break. It has something for everyone to experience and enjoy.
The clocks have sprung forward, the evenings are getting longer, the temperatures are rising and the city is buzzing with activity. A short city break is such a brilliant way to enjoy a long weekend or a few day away midweek, and York fits the bill perfectly. Easily reached by train or car and placed half way between the north and south of Britain, it’s not too far to travel. No busy airports to negotiate, it seems like it’s on your doorstep.

What to see and where to go in York
York is a great choice for a three or four night break. There is so much to do and see and it’s the perfect city for pedestrians as it is so compact. Highlights include a scenic boat trip up or down river, a visit to the newly re-opened Cliffford’s Tower which gives you great views over the city, some time spent in beautiful York Minster, a short or longer walk ( up to two miles) around the city walls and of course discovering all the wonderful shopping streets and narrow snickleways that lead you from one part of the city to the next.
