East Yorkshire

With its towering gothic minster, pretty market squares and beautiful Georgian townhouses, Beverley is a stunning market-town steeped in history. Not only does Beverley boast a traditional market but you can also enjoy a day at the races, boutique shopping, a quiet drink in an historic pub or a meal in an increasing number of café-bars and restaurants. The Flemingate Shopping Centre, which is also packed with leisure options, has dramatically transformed an area in the town once known for its tannery. It’s a much sought after location as recent accolades have declared it one of the top places to live in the UK (as voted by The Sunday Times).
 

Driffield, often referred to as the ‘Capital of the Wolds’, effortlessly combines historical depth with the scenic beauty of East Yorkshire, making it a real hidden gem. Few locations capture the relaxed charm of the Yorkshire Wolds like Driffield. Founded in Saxon times, the thriving town centre has retained its natural rural character and brings together the vivid history, culture and flavour of the surrounding countryside.

Hull, Yorkshires only maritime city, is a treasure trove of rich seafaring history, stunning architecture, and a thriving arts scene. Modern Hull is a city of contrasts, from the cobbled streets of the historic Old Town with its Museums' Quarter and thriving creative industries to the contemporary Princes Quay Shopping Centre above the waters of a former dock. A short distance away the stunning Humber suspension bridge saves miles on the crossing of the River Humber estuary. Hull has transformed itself into a real gem in Yorkshire’s crown offering the perfect mix of museums, shopping and nightlife.
