York is one of Britain’s most historic and beautiful cities...

York Minster, the largest Cathedral in Great Britain famous for its medieval stained glass windows. The National Railway Museum's a fantastic day out in itself with a huge array of trains, and its free to get in! Our favourite, The Castle Museum shows the everyday life of Yorkshire folk, and includes complete reconstructions of rooms, shops and even cobbled streets. The ever popular Jorvik Viking Centre shows life as it was in Viking York during the tenth century, as you travel by time car through the ages you will experience all the sights, sounds and smells! York has many gastronomic delights to offer, some only a stones throw from Warrens. The days of 365 pubs within the City walls may have faded but you will find that there is everything on offer from lively nightclubs to superb CAMRA hostelries and even our own brewery. After a day of sight-seeing, York's two theatres, three cinemas, Barbican Centre, and its host of vibrant pubs and restaurants, offer the visitor plenty of evening entertainment. The city is also an ideal base for visiting attractions throughout Yorkshire. There are good rail and bus links to all parts of the country and many local coach companies offer excellent excursions to attractions throughout the north of England. The east coast is only 40 miles away, bringing varied resorts such as Scarborough, Filey, Bridlington and wonderful Whitby within an hour's drive. To the west, the spa town of Harrogate is only 20 miles away, and Haworth, made famous by the Bronte’s, Holmfirth (TV's Last of the Summer Wine), and the Yorkshire Dales national park are all easily reached. Castle Howard, Vanbrugh's baroque masterpiece has found fame as the location of TV's Brideshead Revisited and The Buccaneers. Goathland is world-famous as 'Aidensfield' in TV's Heartbeat, while the North Yorkshire Moors Railway is part of the backdrop to the Harry Potter film, The Philosopher's Stone.
