In the wake of the covid-19 pandemic many Brits have ditched far-flung summer holidays for getaways closer to home.<\/p>\n

Staycations are seemingly here to, well, stay, and the UK is brimming with beautiful towns and cities that make for charming alternatives to arduous long-haul flights.<\/p>\n

Perfect for domestic travellers, there\u2019s one destination that has it all – Yorkshire.<\/p>\n

God\u2019s Own County, as it’s affectionately known by its inhabitants, is the largest county in the country and is known for its stunning scenery.<\/p>\n

Highlights include the breathtaking rolling hills of Nidderdale and the gorgeous greenery of the Howardian Hills – both designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty.<\/p>\n

A walker\u2019s paradise, Yorkshire is also home to the North York Moors, Yorkshire Dales, and part of the Peak District National Park.<\/p>\n

As well as its picturesque environment, Yorkshire is home to eight cities – Bradford, Kingston Upon Hull, Leeds, Ripon, Sheffield, Wakefield, York, and, as of 2022, Doncaster.<\/p>\n

Each comes with their individual quirks and reasons to visit, for example Bradford, named the UK\u2019s City of Culture for 2025 – 2029, is home to the illuminating National Science and Media Museum (currently undergoing refurbishment) and the fascinating Bradford Industrial Museum.<\/p>\n

Kingston Upon Hull, a previous UK City of Culture (2017 – 2021) is home to The Deep, an award-winning aquarium with over 5,000 animals that makes for a great family day out.<\/p>\n
