Information about East Yorkshire
East Yorkshire is a county that sits quietly on the eastern edge of England, overlooked by many yet offering a genuine and unhurried alternative to its more celebrated neighbours. Bounded by the North Sea to the east, the Humber estuary to the south and the Yorkshire Wolds rising gently to the west, it is a county of wide skies, a dramatic chalk coastline and a deep rural interior that rewards those who take the time to explore it.
The Yorkshire Wolds are the county’s defining landscape, a range of chalk hills and dry valleys that forms the most northerly chalk upland in England. The Wolds Way, a long distance walking route that winds through this quiet and beautiful landscape from the Humber to the coast at Filey, passes through some of the most peaceful and least visited countryside in the north of England, with wide views across a gently rolling landscape of arable fields, hidden villages and ancient trackways.
The coastline is more dramatic than many visitors expect. Flamborough Head, a chalk headland of impressive cliffs, sea stacks and seabird colonies, is one of the most spectacular coastal features on the east coast of England and a site of major importance for nesting seabirds. Bridlington is the most traditional of the coast’s seaside resorts, with a working harbour, long sandy beaches and a straightforward and unpretentious seaside character that retains considerable charm.
Beverley, the county town, is one of the finest and most underrated market towns in England, its magnificent minster rivalling many English cathedrals in scale and beauty yet drawing a fraction of the visitors. Hull, the city that straddles the boundary with the East Riding, is a city of genuine maritime heritage, a proud cultural identity and a story of regeneration and reinvention that gathered considerable momentum from its year as UK City of Culture in 2017.
Whether you are looking for a walking holiday on the Wolds Way, a coastal break at Flamborough or Bridlington, a stay in the market town of Beverley or a city break in Hull, East Yorkshire is a county of quiet character and genuine appeal that invariably surprises those who make the journey.
