Touring holidays in Yorkshire

Yorkshire boasts a stunning landscape and many cultural and historical gems that are all the more appealing because they don’t suffer from the numbers of tourists sometimes found in the south of England. In terms of countryside, there’s the utterly gorgeous Yorkshire moors and dales, abutting The Lake District to the north and the rugged and charming coast to explore. Then there’s the numerous authentically British small towns and stone built villages, to discover. Major cities - Leeds and York for example, are relatively small in number and reference the past with their solid wool mills and canals and old factories delivering sweets and railway stock.

A Carter Company touring holiday in Yorkshire will include off the beaten track routes, our hand-picked favourite hotels and will uncover the hidden gems of the area. David Hockney painted some of these and the Bronte sisters wrote about them. Your turn to enjoy them!
