Dedicated family attractions

Enjoy a ride on a steam train on one of the heritage railways that weaves through the Yorkshire landscape or take to the water in a rowboat of canal barge and let the world float by.
New places to grow young minds on a family day out
Explore a cave and discover the mindboggling formations of stalactites and stalagmites formed over thousands of years or visit the magical petrifying well where everyday objects are turned to stone in mere months.
In addition to all this, many of our museums and stately homes have created trails, experiences and demonstrations to ensure that they offer as much to younger visitors as they do adults.
