Advantages: Beautiful art, lovely park, great facilities

Disadvantages: Parking is a bit pricey if you only want a short visit

The Yorkshire Sculpture Park is worth a visit. I live locally and visit a couple of times a year. It is set in huge parkland and various sculptures are dotted around. The park itself is free entry although car parking is set at four pounds for if you stay for half an hour or a day...this is to pay towards the upkeep. It is great to visit with family, or by yourself for a nice tranquil walk. I always take my camera and capture some good images.

The sculptures range in different styles, there are ones by Henry Moore, the famous sculpture that was based locally. There are also temporary exhibitions. I went to see one by Andy Goldsworthy and that was absolutely fantastic. Some of the sculptures are in really obvious places and some seem to be hidden a way. It feels really good to make a discovery of a sculpture that seems tucked away. Some of the pieces are interactive and are great for kids to get involved. The visitors centre has a great gift shop and cafe.

I can't praise the Yorkshire Sculpture Park enough. Infact, writing this review has made me realise I haven't been for a while and need to visit soon!!!

Do not miss out on this fantastic attraction.

Summary: Do not miss out!
