    Diane T

Where to go

Nearby Wakefield

Around 20 minutes away from Wakefield via the M621 is the wonderful city of Leeds. Perfect if you want to enjoy a spot of shopping or to find a number of fantastic food options, Leeds may seem small compared to other cities, but it packs a lot in. Home to the largest covered market in Europe, a stunning series of canals and historical sites like Kirkstall Abbey, Leeds is a great day out.

Longer drives

Around an hour away from Wakefield is the gorgeous city of York. This beautiful city is home to the iconic York Minster and the winding cobbled streets of The Rambles. While driving in the centre of York isn't the best idea as much of it is pedestrians only, having a hire car makes getting there a lot easier so you can get on with enjoying your day.

Things to do

No matter what your interests, you'll find something to keep you entertained in Wakefield. Spend a day at The Hepworth Wakefield, which houses one of the best collections of modern art in Europe. Learn about the city's history at the National Coal Mining Museum or try your hand at watersports at Pugneys Country Park.

Sightseeing

If you can tear yourself away from the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, there are plenty of other great sightseeing opportunities in and around Wakefield. Take a trip to Nostell Priory to see the beautiful 18th-century house and gardens. It is home to an adventure park too, so is a great option for little ones. You may also want to visit Sandal Castle to enjoy exploring and a picnic, while Wakefield Cathedral is a must-see.
