First-class park with children's play area |
40 Water End York YO30 6WP United Kingdom +44 1904 62 9241 |
The Homestead is everything a park should be. Seemingly endless, well-maintained lawns are perfect for picnics or a game of football and stretch out as far as the eye can see. Children can run around freely as dogs have to be on leads, and there is so much space, it's wonderful. The children's play area offers an excellent assortment of outdoor play equipment including several climbing frames, tree trunks for balancing and a large helter-skelter type slide. Swings for all ages are available and there's also a swing to accommodate children in wheelchairs. A section of the play area is reserved for the under sevens and features animal swings and a huge lorry. All the equipment has a protective wood-chip flooring. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Good fun for everyone |
Tea Room Square York Station York YO2 2AB United Kingdom +44 1904 63 0169 |
York Model Railway is located just at the side of York Station, at the entrance to the short-term car park. Everything here is in miniature and a delight for children and adults too. The miniature trains run continuously and include the Royal Train with the Royal Crest on every carriage, the InterCity 125 and the superb Orient Express. There is even a Thomas the Tank Engine, which the children will take great pleasure in operating themselves. The painstaking detail of the collection took three years to put together and is authentic in every aspect. There is a gift and souvenir shop on site. Admission: adults £2.95; children £1.95; concessions £2.65; family ticket £7.95. Review © 2007, Wcities |
