Beverley
Most people know Beverley for its beautiful Minster which dominates the town, a masterpiece of medieval architecture with wonderful stone carvings inside. But there is much more to discover.
Park the car for the day and explore on foot: tucked away down narrow, medieval streets are antique shops and craft arcades, and the market squares are a riot of colour on market days. A very pleasant walk from the Minster, through Beverley’s historic streets and market places, will bring you to the beautiful St Mary’s Church where, if you look carefully, you’ll find the carved rabbit which Lewis Carroll brought to life as the March Hare in Alice in Wonderland.
Music has been a passion in Beverley for hundreds of years and the town really comes to life during the four major festivals held every year – of early music, chamber music, folk music and jazz.
A day at the races is another real holiday treat and Beverley Racecourse puts on a great show on race days.
