Visit Hull & East Yorkshire

Experience some of the delights that the Yorkshire Wolds and surrounding areas have to offer.

Ranging from exceptional restaurants, gastro pubs and boutique bars to truly unique events, the Yorkshire Wolds are full of fantastic hidden secrets waiting for your discovery.

Immerse yourself in the Wolds Way a 79 mile walking route that winds its way through villages and valleys and past archaeological sites and stately homes. Try the circular walk from Wharram le Street, through a tapestry of crop fields, to the abandoned medieval village of Wharram Percy.

Hidden deep in a valley the remains of this ancient settlement will delight history lovers. The reed-fringed mill pond makes a perfect picnic spot.

Take time out on the historic Beverley Westwood and explore the surroundings under the shadow of the Minster, while never being far from the boutique shops and lunching at a wide choice of cafes. For the animal lovers, experience one of the UK's largest and most important seabird colonies on the heights of RSPB Bempton cliffs. Visit Pocklington - the gateway to the Wolds, which is dominated by the 15th century tower of its splendid church. Pocklington`s pride and joy is Burnby Hall Gardens, home of Europe`s largest water lily collection in two acres of lakes, with over 5,000 flowering plants

Cyclists will also love the Wolds with a network of routes to suit all abilities. After a day of activities, accommodation of the highest standard awaits. Stay in a coaching inn or the at Georgian country houses where the food is prepared from fresh local ingredients or plucked straight from the vegetable garden. Come to the Wolds if you are longing for a sense of space and a feeling of freedom.
