Beautiful place to visit, the stained glass is fantastic. The grounds were more extensive before the reformation but the Minster itself is awe-inspiring. Has a lovely little café inside that serves teas and coffees with homemade cake and has a little gift shop. The washbasins in the facilities have a great view of a stained glass window! Go visit when you are in the Selby area.

Great facilities - I use the gym, classes and pool regularly since it opened in 2015. Great modern gym with great equipment. Lots of natural light too so. From entering the building to leaving the staff are always there to great you with a smile and assist if needed. The classes are amazing too. I use the pool with my toddler who loves the pool. All in all I glad I live locally to use this amazing centre regularly.

I visited here the other week with a group of ladies for a friend's birthday. It was bottomless lunch on a Saturday and despite how busy they were, the service was outstanding. The staff couldn't do enough to make our visit perfect. I ordered the nachos and my friend's had a combination of food that was on the bottomless menu. Not long after we ordered our food was brought to our tables and the presentation was great. It tasted so good I considered ordering more, but of course, I was way too full and had to watch the waistline! As soon as our drinks were empty the girls were right on getting us another one. We had such a great time that we have already booked in for another bottomless lunch in a few weeks and we can't wait. Thanks again to the girls behind the bar, who not only provided us with great service but gave us a right laugh. Oh and P.S The decor is amazing ????
