What to do and see in Yorkshire, England: The Best Performances

January 10, 2022 Kiesha Cripe

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.

Kettlewell

A charming Yorkshire Dales village with three great pubs, an award winning youth hostel, a great village shop, brilliant campsites and some gorgeous walks right from the village. Once you get here, stay a while and get to know the area, it is really great!

Reviewed By TheWhittlesxx - Preston, United Kingdom

Recently we stayed in Kettlewell for our stay cation. This is a lovely village with lots of charm, a village store that knocks out delicious ham sandwiches and 3 good pubs serving great food and beer. The whole village was very welcoming and nice and quiet during the witching hours, they managed the government guidelines on corona virus very well and with respect. See my related review for The Racehorses Hotel.

Pocklington Arts Centre

Reviewed By David_R186346 - Pocklington, United Kingdom

Great to see the auditorium packed to capacity for an amazing evening of musical theatre relayed to cinemas around the country. The cinematography provided cinema goers with close ups of the performers which theatre goers wouldn't benefit from. A first class production within walking distance from home.

Bradford Playhouse

Art Deco Theater and Vintage Bar set in the heart of Little Germany in Bradford. Home of the best late night live entertainment. Bradford Playhouse is a diverse Theatre venue, offering a wide range of different environments and Theatre spaces. From intimidate acting venues, all the way to a grandiose Theatre stage.

Reviewed By LizzieA1967 - Bradford, United Kingdom

On first impressions of the Playhouse I thought it was very shabby and run down and in dire need of National Lottery funding. The bar area was interesting......more shabby than chic. That said, the warmth and friendliness of all the staff was really nice and I was impressed how they took particular care and attention to people with mobility issues etc. The pantomime itself was excellent, great cast especially Buttons who gave Billy Pearce a run for his money. The drinks in the bar and ice cream in the interval were very sensibly priced I thought. I thought it was really lovely that the cast were down in the bar after the show posing for photos etc - a really lovely touch. I only booked my ticket a few days before the show after reviews from work colleagues and I am really glad I went - a thoroughly enjoyable way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

A 400 year old gem of a pub with history and atmosphere to match. Young and old welcome in a proper Sheffield pub that’s welcome regulars and visitors alike. Great cask ales, Gins, cocktails, rum and the best mixers. We’ve even got champagne and bubbles for your special occasions with friends and family. A popular quiz every Wednesday at 6pm after work. Come and say hello and try our food and drink.

Called in for a quick pint and nearly missed the train home, working our way through the beers ! Lovely cosy pub, nice decor with a decent selection of beers. The Jewels in the Crown though were Melanie and Tracy behind the bar. No matter how busy it got, there was never a wait for a fresh pint.Talk to Tracy nicely and she'll russell you up a great chip butty too! Landlord, give these ladies a pay rise.
