No trip to Yorkshire is complete without a day in the lovely city of York. Walk the entire loop of the Old Town on the ancient Roman city walls, spend a few hours in the Jorvik Viking Centre, explore the medieval Shambles, and tour the town's Cathedral and historic churches. Don't forget to pick up a sweet treat or enjoy a relaxing afternoon tea in local Betty's Tea Rooms, or you could even drive over to nearby Harrogate to visit the original Betty's cafe!
Kids will thrive in the fresh, bracing Yorkshire air when you book a holiday at this delightful (but hilly!) seaside resort. Use Scarborough as your base, and explore some of the quaint fishing villages and rugged cliffs along this spectacular coastline. Just some essential destinations to check out include Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay, Bridlington, Filey, and Flamborough Head.
If Yorkshire wasn't on your bucket list 'til now, a city break to Leeds is sure to convince you that the county has so much to offer the whole family. Some of the popular Leeds attractions include the historic, covered market, The National Children's Museum: Eureka!, and Tropical World in Roundhay. This bustling city is a great base for exploring Bronte countryside, while also within easy reach of Hebden Bridge, the city of York, Sheffield, Harrogate, and the Yorkshire Moors and Dales.
Active families will enjoy getting away from the maddening crowd when staying close by the picturesque village of Malham. Try out climbing, paragliding, and cycling in some of the more remote countrysides of the Dales. Alternatively, simply chill out. Either way, the unique attractions of Malham are sure to thrill. What's more, it's an easy matter to take a day trip to the Lake District, Manchester, or Blackpool when you opt to holiday in Malham.
