About Selby
Selby is a North Yorkshire market town, located 12 miles south of York on the River Ouse. The town has an interesting Viking past and offers plenty for visitors today. Walkers and cyclists will love exploring the scenery around Selby, particularly the Trans Pennine cycle way – it has a direct path right into York.
Selby Abbey is wonderfully picturesque and older than York Minster. Barlow Nature Reserve and Brayton Barff Reservoir are ideal for a day out in nature. With trains to Selby from York taking just 30 minutes and those from Leeds having a journey time of 20 minutes, it’s the perfect location to explore North Yorkshire.
