Planning to head for Elvington, as we're coming from the far north thought we'd train it to York and see a bit of the city over the weekend as well as supporting the Scooby team..

How far is Elvington from centre of York?
Any transport laid on from York?
What time does it kick off in the morning?
Presume it'll finish late afternoon/early evening?

Thanks

Kevin,

If you want a decent hotel try the Elmbank. Farly close to city centre and pubs.

If you want a cheaper hotel then there is a Quality Hotel near Micklegate - usually full of Hen nights on a weekend.

Good luck!
