Rievaulx Abbey Cafe - Helmsley

We had a wonderful time to visit rievaulx and had luck with the weather in februar! it is fantastic for all age groups, as my children loved, to explore the place and find hidden gems around the abtei. scenic landscape and a great place for pictures! would be worth it again, but I would avoid going through the sutton bank route as my heart was in my neck! the staff was also brilliant and helpful. thank you for making it unforgettable for all of us.

A fantastic place for the kids to explore and stunning setting for a picnic. Loved our visit yesterday. Even managed to get the kids to listen to the history of the place by an amusing man dressed as a monk!! Excellent place, shall be returning soon !

Went there when we were in Whitby on holiday last year OMG!! it took our breaths away! fantastic place its a hidden gem would def visit again well worth it!

Wow! This place is so awesome. It's inspiring, emotional, evocative, beautiful and definitely one of a kind. I could have spent hours and hours here. It is definitely a place for personal contemplation... I loved it and will be back soon....

My Dad died in 1995 and his ashes are scattered around the high altar. Rievaulx has always been an incredibly special place for me and my family, but now even more so. My wedding was blessed at his beautiful place in August and we have a lovely bench now dedicated to his memory. Dad loved this place... And so do I.
