If peace and tranquillity is what you seek from a family day out in
Yorkshire, then Rievaulx Abbey is the perfect choice. Set in a remote valley
in the North Yorkshire Moors National Park, Rievaulx is one of the most
complete, and atmospheric, of England's abbey ruins. It's no wonder it's one
of the most popular visitor attractions in the North.
Learn about the monks in medieval times - how they devoted their lives to
spiritual matters and at the same time established a thriving business to
become one of the wealthiest monasteries in Britain. Then enjoy some
delicious Yorkshire fare in the café before taking a stroll around the
beautiful grounds.
