National Trust site that's well worth a stop off. No facilities or cafe or anything like that, but if you've got a picnic or just want to get some nice photos, then it's a must.

Note that the Abbey itself is English Heritage and has both cafe and toilets available accessible without paying admission/requiring membership. The only downside is that to get there from Rievaulx Terrace it is down a steep hill.
