East Yorkshire beaches are wide and sandy. They give you a more relaxed walk from Bridlington’s traditional bucket and spade resort of Bridlington to Spurn Head at the mouth of the River Humber. This river is crossed at Hull by the longest single-span suspension bridge in the world. Other quaint and welcoming resorts worth a visit include Hornsea and Withernsea.

If the weather will likely drive you indoors, there’s still plenty to do. Visiting grand stately homes such as Wassand Hall and Gardens on the coast near Hornsea, the magnificent Elizabethan Burton Agnes Hall, or the nicely preserved medieval manor house near Driffield. Another ‘don’t miss’ is the Minster at Beverley, highly regarded as England’s best example of medieval gothic architecture in England. Plan your visit to coincide with the charming Beverley Folk Festival, one of a considerable variety of enticing festivals that take place throughout the County all year round. 

Now a European City of Culture, Hull offers first-rate theatre, musical events and galleries, shopping, and intoxicating city nightlife. Its natural offerings will keep a family holiday entertained for days, even before you have sampled the attractions of the city of Hull’s continental-style waterfront. Visit the “Submarium”, where dozens of sharks and thousands of assorted fish can be viewed from Europe’s deepest viewing tunnel, finishing off with a ride in the glass lift running through the 10-metre-deep tank.

Whatever kind of holiday you desire in East Yorkshire - be it exploring the great outdoors, traditional seaside holidays or discovering the incredible architecture of ifs big houses and churches, you’ll find suitable self-catering accommodation the best place to stay while you get out and about in the old East Riding.
