Lovely little cafe specialising in cakes (hence the name!). Also excellent coffee using North Star beans and good savouries. Quite small but a few outside tables and dog friendly too. I think they take bookings.

This historic bridge dates back to 1770 and links the West Yorkshire village of Boston Spa with Thorpe Arch. It's a particularly pretty stone bridge that creates a lovely scene as you're passing by the River Wharfe. If you're passing over the bridge, you're afforded fantastic views up and down the waterway.

A beautiful spot to approach, the tranquil Wharfe where the river's expanse is embraced by a serene canopy of trees. Nestled along the course of the Wharfe, Boston Spa stands as a quaint village that, during the 18th century, lured travellers with the allure of a limestone sulphur spring. Embracing the river's edge near the weir or venturing further upstream, at Jackdaw Crag, grants access to these captivating waters.

The northern bank of the River Wharfe holds a rich history of horse racing. The present-day Racecourse is situated upon land that once belonged to the Montagu family of Ingmanthorpe Hall. This expanse of land was leased to the race committee, with the inaugural meeting taking place on the 30th of March 1891. Starting in 1906, the committee embarked on a journey to enhance the course's amenities, commencing with the construction of the enduring 'Bramham' Grandstand – an edifice that stands resolute to this day.

Spanning the waters of the River Wharfe to the southern reaches of Wetherby, this abandoned railway bridge forms a connection between the Ebor Way and the Wetherby Railway Path. In the earlier years of the 2000s, the neighbouring village of Thorp Arch was designated as the favoured site for Leeds United Football Club's training grounds.
