Matlock Bath – A Weird but Wonderful English Village

AsideOctober 16, 2021 Chris - CJ Attractions Guide3 Comments

Matlock Bath has always been somewhere that has intrigued me. It is a mis-match of attractions, scenery and wacky festivals that don’t seem to go together. You would expect this picturesque village on the edge of the peak district to be a quiet haven for relaxing, peaceful views and an escape from city life. Though […]

The Hidden gems of the Yorkshire Coast

AsideMarch 7, 2021March 7, 2021 Chris - CJ Attractions Guide17 Comments

Check out the map to find out where they are! https://goo.gl/maps/y7NpJ5iF8ZazUa3K7 From Miami beach in my last post, to some beaches a lot closer to home this time, a little bit colder, but nonetheless worth visiting! I have had many seaside trips and days out to the Yorkshire coast many times. Whitby’s crooked houses, cobbled […]

A visit to Pontefract Castle and it’s Historic Yorkshire Market Town, UK

AsideAugust 22, 2020September 21, 2020 Chris - CJ Attractions Guide50 Comments

I have lived in Yorkshire for the majority of my life but have never visited Pontefract. We actually got the urge to visit after seeing the castle on the ‘four in a bed’ tv show, of all places! The market town is located just off the M1 near Wakefield, so is very accessible. I was […]

My 5 Favourite Museums in the North of England!

AsideJuly 31, 2020September 21, 2020 Chris - CJ Attractions Guide50 Comments

I’m sure you’ve all read ‘Best museums in the UK’ posts and the majority include the usual London museums, yes the British Museum, Natural History…. which we all know and love. Though this means some of the amazing museums further north in the country miss out. So I’ve decided to champion the north and share […]

A visit to Bakewell – Puddings in the Peak District

AsideJuly 25, 2020July 25, 2020 Chris - CJ Attractions Guide43 Comments

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear ‘Bakewell’, well being from the UK, to me it is all about the tart! Bakewell in England is of course the home of the Bakewell tart, but originally it was the Bakewell Pudding that soar the limelight. It is a variant of the […]

My Favourite Picnic spots in the UK

AsideMay 27, 2020November 25, 2020 Chris - CJ Attractions Guide45 Comments

The UK is relishing the sunshine at the moment and the great weather is set to continue! As we continue to stay safe, one of the things we can do is go for a walk to the park and enjoy the sun, so I went for a picnic at the weekend to do exactly that. […]

Embsay & Bolton Abbey Steam Railway – Dales Dining

AsideMarch 19, 2020September 21, 2020 Chris - CJ Attractions Guide13 Comments

Before the world is sent into complete lockdown, we managed to get out into the countryside and explore one of our local Yorkshire dales attractions as a pre-mothers day treat for my lovely mum. We decided to get the full experience and dine too, they have various different dining options on different weekends such as […]

Sailing with P&O Ferries on the Pride of York

AsideApril 6, 2018September 21, 2020 Chris - CJ Attractions Guide2 Comments

Boarding: Checking in & Boarding is very quick and easy, no chaos of the airport, simple but effective security and actually very quiet. Check in is at least 90 minutes before departure, there is a lounge area upstairs while you wait for boarding. Then once on board, keys are given out quickly and before you know it […]

Christmas Break in Liverpool

AsideDecember 13, 2017September 21, 2020 Chris - CJ Attractions GuideLeave a comment

I love Liverpool. I think the city has some of the best historic & modern buildings in the UK and they fit together perfectly in the picturesque city. The range of shops makes it the perfect place for some last minute Christmas shopping and a relaxing Christmas weekend away just before the big day! Mainly we spent the […]
