Places to visit in Yorkshire

Why not escape to a family cottage in North Yorkshire, the home of two national parks? The Yorkshire Dales is an iconic region full of craggy mountains and sweeping valleys, and home to a host of attractions from castles to waterfalls. The lesser-known North York Moors is no less lovely with great swathes of moorland, heritage sites, family farm parks, and coastline to the east. Retreat to a North York Moors family cottage or pick out a place to stay on the Yorkshire Coast – nothing beats a beach holiday!

While the national parks belong to the north, bustling cities, arts and culture hubs and market towns brimming with charm can be found throughout the west and the south of Yorkshire. Step inside impressive old houses and museums on a West Yorkshire family holiday, home of the Leeds Industrial Museum and the fun-filled Diggerland, or uncover a wealth of heritage on a cottage trip with the kids to South Yorkshire.

Finally, York and the Wolds boast such fantastic family attractions as York Minster, JORVIK Viking Centre and Murton Park that children will love, while parents might like to pop by the medieval Shambles for a spot of metropolitan living while away.
