Yorkshire Overview

By Travel Expert: Alistair Wearmouth

One of England's loveliest regions, and home to some of its friendliest locals, the northern county of Yorkshire is packed with fun things to do with kids. Visits to this area combining scenic countryside and historic towns should start with a trip to York, a fascinating medieval town with everything from Roman ruins to the world's largest railway museum.
