One of the advantages of attending the University of York is that you will be in the heart of one of the UK\u2019s most beautiful and historic cities. Believe it or not, you can explore York by spending very little or nothing at all. If like me, you are always looking for things to do with your friends or family without breaking the bank, here are 10 great places I’ve discovered in York that are absolutely FREE….or very cheap! Living off campus with my husband and 2 young children means that I am always on the lookout for cheap and cheerful days out especially as the weather is warming up and summer holidays are around the corner. In this blog, I will share my top 10 fun and favourite places to explore in York!<\/p>\n

1. National Railway Museum<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

For a fantastic free day out for the whole family in York, visit National Railway Museum.\u00a0Get up close to over 200 years of fascinating history. On weekends and school holidays there is \u00a0a fun programme of events and activities, including science shows, storytelling, steam rides, craft activities and special events.<\/p>\n

Location: Leeman Road, York<\/p>\n

2. The Shambles<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"The<\/a>
The Shambles<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Shambles is a great place to take a \u00a0stroll do some window shopping,\u00a0listen to the street musicians and\u00a0soak up the historic atmosphere. It’s a narrow cobbled street in the heart of the city, and is said to be Europe’s best preserved medieval street. The leaning \u2018wattle and daub\u2019 buildings were once home to the city\u2019s butcher shops, but these days they\u2019re filled with charming, quirky boutiques, cafes and restaurants.<\/p>\n

Location: City Centre, York<\/p>\n

3. York City Walls<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"York<\/a>
York City Walls<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A lovely walk along the walls gives you a clear view of the city, with informative plaques dotted along the route that explain the historical background. The well-preserved Roman walls have been guarding the historic city centre for around 700 years. I completed a full circuit in around 2 hours, but if you prefer a shorter experience, you can enter and exit via the five main bars or gateways onto the walls.<\/p>\n

Location: Monk Bar and Micklegate Bar, York<\/p>\n

4. Rowntree Park<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"Rowntree<\/a>
Rowntree Park is one of my favourite outdoor spaces in York<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

One of my favourites! This green oasis is just a\u00a010-15 minute walk south of the city centre. Watch the ducks and geese on the park\u2019s lake, and keep a look out for squirrels as you stroll across the parks lush lawns. Children could\u00a0entertain themselves\u00a0in the play area, complete with climbing frames, swings and a mini zip line. If you want to get active there is a\u00a0tennis court, basketball areas and skate park or you could also relax and have an ice-cream or lovely cuppa at the caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n

5. Yorkshire Museum Gardens and Observatory<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a>
The Yorkshire Museum and gardens are stunning!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This museum is free for York Museum Trust cardholders, however up to four children can enter free per one paying adult (definitely a bargain!). Weather\u00a0permitting, this a fantastic spot for a stroll and a relaxed riverside picnic on a sunny summer\u2019s day. Another oasis in the heart of the city, set around the ruins of St Mary\u2019s Abbey. The flora and fauna is AMAZING! Yorkshire\u2019s oldest working observatory is also within the grounds.<\/p>\n

Location: Museum St., York<\/p>\n

6. Free guided walking tours<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"Cobbled<\/a>
Cobbled stones dating back to medieval times!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Association of Voluntary Guides to the City of York give free walking tours on the city walls and around the historic centre. Tours leave daily from Exhibition Square and wind through the city to end at the Shambles. The route varies but normally passes by the ruins of St Mary\u2019s Abbey, the King\u2019s Manor, York Minster, the haunted Treasurer\u2019s house and St. William\u2019s College. The guides have an incredible knowledge of the city\u2019s historical background and lots of fascinating local gossip and jokes.<\/p>\n

\"York<\/a>

7. The Homestead<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The Homestead is a great park to visit on a sunny day. It\u2019s a short pleasant walk from the city centre along the River Ouse towpath. For younger children, there is a large play area with a monkey gym and slides, as well as a paddling pool, table tennis and lots of grassy spaces for football and other games. The gardens are quirky and well thought-out. There are also free tree trail and wildlife spotting guides available at the entrance.<\/p>\n

Location: 40 Water End, York<\/p>\n

8. Shambles\u00a0Market<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"Shambles<\/a>

There are usually over 85 stalls set up amongst the cobbles at this daily market behind the Shambles. There is an incredible range of goods on sale from local produce, fruit and veg, delicious cakes and freshly baked breads to flowers, cosmetics, clothing, gifts, books and unique crafts. There is also a street food area where you can try all kinds of tasty international snacks, with a seating area and free wi-fi.<\/p>\n

You need to pay to get into this Gothic masterpiece…BUT it costs nothing to stand outside and take it all in! The last stone was laid in the 1400s \u2013 experts reckon it one of the UK\u2019s great historical buildings.<\/p>\n

So there you have it folks! York is indeed a beautiful city with lots to see and do.
