If you’re fond of pretty villages with a real sense of grit and history, gloriously rugged coastlines, wild moors and dales where you won’t see a soul and cosmopolitan cities that are brimming with character then you’ll love Yorkshire – or, as it’s fondly known, ‘God’s Own Country’. The largest county in England, shaped by industry and home to a wealth of culture and award-winning scenery, is the ideal destination for a short break or a longer holiday – giving you the chance to explore Yorkshire’s stunning diversity.
Yorkshire isn’t just a place. It’s a way of life, a state of mind, an identity.
