Yorkshire was once only a part of a larger region known as Yorkshire and Humberside, which made up the North East of England. Although still occasionally used to describe this large area, Yorkshire has now not only become a region in its own right, it is also one of the largest counties in the UK. Stretching from the vast moorlands and fells of the Yorkshire Dales to the stunning coastlines of East Yorkshire, and from the top of the Peak District in the South to the dramatic North Yorkshire Moors the region really does have it all. To see holiday cottages along the Yorkshire coast, simply tick the 'By The Sea' tick box in the 'Refine Your Search' options on the left-hand side.

With nature being generous to the area, it has a total of three National Parks and two Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty; it is hardly surprising that it is known by many as ‘God’s own country’. The magnificent landscapes, assorted with limestone geology, vast heather moorlands, English rural communities, sea fronts, and cliff edges, have captured the imagination of people coming here and encouraged them to return year after year.
