The huge bridge in Yorkshire

Self-catering holiday cottages in Yorkshire

As the largest county in England, Yorkshire has a great deal to offer holidaymakers, including regions that are known for being the greenest in England. The Yorkshire Dales, and the North York Moors, provide unspoilt scenery that’s perfect for walking and rambling. Much of its coastal land is protected as heritage sites, and there are a number of nature reserves with a striking range of biodiversity. For a scenic, outdoor break that’s second to none, choose one of our holiday cottages in Yorkshire, and say 'hello' to this breathtaking county on your vacation.

Yorkshire is well known for friendly pubs and restaurants many walkable from holiday cottages - a night off from self-catering perhaps?
