York combines old with new to create a modern vibrant city that moulds itself into its ancient and historic past. Bustling markets and local shopping streets are combined with its imposing York Minster cathedral, world-class museums and impressive Roman City Walls. Situated just over 2-hours by train journey from London, and on the way towards Edinburgh, its perfect for a day trip. It’s also a perfect place to base yourself for exploring the surrounding Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors, either independently or on a day tour.
