The 10 Best Visitor Centers in Yorkshire, England
Yorkshire (/ˈjɔːrkʃər, -ʃɪər/; abbreviated Yorks), formally known as the County of York, is a historic county of Northern England and the largest in the United Kingdom. Due to its great size in comparison to other English counties, functions have been undertaken over time by its subdivisions, which have also been subject to periodic reform. Throughout these changes, Yorkshire has continued to be recognised as a geographical territory and cultural region. The name is familiar and well understood across the United Kingdom and is in common use in the media and the military, and also features in the titles of current areas of civil administration such as North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, West Yorkshire and East Riding of Yorkshire.

The Wonkey Donkey centre is a must. Wether you have children, grandchildren or wether it's just you and your partner. It's such a special place. The staff are lovely and the donkeys well they are great. You can get up close to most of them and you can also adopt a donkey of your choice. Also when you visit they have a really nice cafe/tearoom where you can enjoy the homemade treats. I would absolutely recommend.

Overall Ratings

A unique spot in the heart of the Pennine countryside, Standedge Tunnel is the longest canal tunnel in Britain and makes a perfect family day out. As one of the Seven Wonders of the Waterways visitors can explore deep into the tunnel on one of the family friendly guided boat trips, stop for a bite to eat in the cafe and let the kids jump, climb and explore around our playground and wildlife garden.

As a Yorkshire girl I hate to confess that, until last week, I had never heard of Standedge Tunnel. We had an interesting time in the visitor centre at the Marsden end learning more about the genius, Thomas Telford. After a short ride by boat into the tunnel we took the car over to the western end of the tunnel where we had a lovely walk along the canal, past many locks, to look at the other entrance.

My friend and i visited last week (16th July 2020). We had a cup of coffee each, and sat outside in the nice sunshine. Social distancing means one at a time at the counter. There were a few seats inside. Quick and friendly service and nice coffee. The centre itself was open but on this occasion we didnt visit, though have done in the past and its well worth a quick look round.
