 Scarborough Castle (North Yorkshire) Cheap entry for over 2,000 years of history. The best thing to do in this area. Scarborough can be a pain to get to, so it relies on visitors already there. Looses out to attractions in York and the Abbey at Whitby. |  York Minster Cathedral (York) Fantastic, moving, incredible place ?... Can get busy... a few features aren't free |  Blarney Castle (County Cork) History a-plenty, magic and mystery Be careful when taking small children up the castle |
 Cork City Gaol (County Cork) Historical, interesting, nice architecture Would be nice to see more of the building, slightly cheesy at the end |  Portland Park (Nottinghamshire) Peace and Quite. Most wild life comes out at night. |  Stirling Castle (Stirling) Great for family days out Steep entry fees |
 National Stone Centre (Derbyshire) A good family day out. Nothing major. |  Eltham Palace (Eltham) Opulent, glamorous history Can get overcrowded - visitor facilities not great |  Cornish Market World (Cornwall) All under one roof..oh.and pasties! None |
