Holiday options time near York

If you do end up in whitby my favourite is la rosa hotel, its full of daft stuffed creatures and quirky shit, if you can get a room overlooking the harbour its grand. On a shoestring the YHA is amazing, its right next to the abbey, its brilliant for kids and is very bike friendly.
Of course if you are visiting Yorkshire and want a really special time then Bradford has to be the top of the list. We have a lovely selection of £1 shops, quite a selection of archaeological digs on the go at any given time (or are they bulldozed wastelands of despair?.....), The kids can play "count the boarded up shopfront" for hours without running short of subject matter. Its an interesting contrast to the splendour of York.
