A holiday in North Yorkshire is highly recommended for all generations, especially for a weekend break in a typical Yorkshire stone cottage. Rent a good quality cottage, apartment or pine lodge in an attractive setting and you will have the best of all words; days exploring rural north Yorkshire and lots of day trips to places that interest you in the Dales, on the Moors, or Yorkshire coast.
The two national parks of the Yorkshire Moors and Yorkshire Dales are a major draw for outdoor people who love nothing better than conquering hills and racking up miles across the moors. Holidays on the Yorkshire coast are at their most popular during the school summer holidays when families pack their suitcases, and sometimes the dog, to head for the sandy beaches of Scarborough, Filey and Whitby.
A love of history and culture draws another crowd. The spa town of Harrogate, Pickering where war re-enactments are held and some of the old textile industy towns and former mining communities all have their own stories of hardship and endurance that are woven into local history. Visit museums for some fascinating accounts.
