Astonishingly beautiful and interesting. Free. Tight car park when busy. Dog friendly. Curious architecture. More

Really interesting abbey ruins huge site. It'sworth buying a guidebook before you visit as its an unattended site.In the summer the medieval floors are uncovered and fascinating to look at. Museum closed when we visited.

While not as much left standing as other abbeys it's exceptionally impressive by its sheer scale. Well worth a look and an interesting little museum with very knowledgeable staff. Both site and museum are free. Lovely old inn opposite serving great food. More
