Rawcliffe Park

Very convenient park and ride. Didn't take to long to get to the city centre. Buses run frequently

Buses run frequently to York and it's much more relaxing than driving in and trying to find somewhere to park.

Great bus service. Easy for wheelchair users . Toilets clean. Could do with additional signage as it gets a bit confusing

The park has some open areas and some wooded areas. Unfortunatly some inconsiderate people had left their pets mess in various places which slightly ruins the experience, as well as the fact that there must be an event being run soon as there were big yellow signs up all over the place advising of restricted access or to be careful etc.! For a slightly longer walk you can loop out of the park to the river and back in again. For the younger kids there is also a play area near the entrance, nd those that have bikes there is also a pump track area. If your unfortunate for the wind going the wrong way then the start of your walk might be a little whiffy from the sewage treatment next to the park (as it was on our visit!)

Well worth a visit! Fantastic house to wander around (a 6ft pineapple sculpture dominated the entrance hall) and beautiful walled gardens where the gardeners are happy to answer any questions. Very dog friendly with lovely walks on the estate. A restaurant serving produce grown in the gardens and reasonably priced too.
