It’s Yorkshire Day, where is your favourite spot?

I’m another fan of Runswick Bay, it has a very special atmosphere.

Harrogate but they tell me it's not really in Yorkshire!

How could Harrogate be anywhere but North Yorkshire?

Owler Tor in the Peak District. Not far from Sheffield, where I lived for a while. Fantastic views of the Hope Valley. I used to go there after work, if I had a trying day at work. I felt completely switched off and relaxed just being there.

All of it but not necessarily the most beautiful bits, of which there are far too many to pick one out. Mostly the old West Riding where I was born and bred, and where my heart will always be.

So many lovely places in this fabulous county, that I can’t choose just one 😁.

Cauldron Falls, West Burton, Leyburn, in the Yorkshire Dales. It's heaven on earth. A hidden gem.
Full of special memories for me.

Robin Hood’s Bay for me. Took the kids there loads when they were small.

For me it has to be the amazing coastline. Despite living in Yorkshire for 38 years (born in the Midlands) we too only discovered Filey recently. I also love Knaresborough,York and Whitby.

York . North Yorks Moors .Hutton le Hole .Bridlington up to Whitby .

Janet's Foss, Malham. Magical!

As a child we holidayed in Scarborough and Bridlington. The coast is beautiful.

Kirkstall Abbey.
Staithes.

In Yorkshire, it’s Bradford for me. Don’t laugh, I like the Italianate architecture.

Sago: most of my Yorkshire relatives were from the West Riding and would have said Harrogate was too posh to be in Yorkshire. My OH was born there but I was born in Wakefield.

I love Yorkshire - it's not just incredibly beautiful , but the people are so nice , warm and friendly .

I only know West Yorkshire well and love Hebden Bridge though I avoid the London luvvies like the plague !

I'm looking forward to exploring the rest of Yorkshire .

Grosmont and Goathland for the North yorkshire moor steamtrain,lucky enough to live just down the road from them in Redcar

Yorkshire has some beautiful towns in all 3 Ridings and the South.
Wetherby, Boston Spa, Beverley, Ilkley, Tickhill, Bawtry and more, all lovely destinations.
I dislike the word “posh”so will describe them as more desirable.
Yorkshire is not all cloth caps and whippets.

My family were from Scarborough and I always took the children there for traditional seaside holidays.
I discovered Filey a couple of years ago and fell in love with that beach. Going next week with adult DC and staying on the seafront where I can hear the sea while I am in bed.

Yorkshire is close to perfection - but only because it’s next to Lancashire 😀😀

Incomers in retirement to West Yorkshire we love where we live but our favourite place, amongst many here, is probably Upper Wharfedale around Yockenthwaite.

Oops I’ve no idea where that 1st photo is but it definitely not Yockenthwaite - that'll teach me to post when it’s bedtime!!

Oh how lovely these places sound. My mum was from Yorkshire and some of the fam still live in North Yorkshire and round York. A long way from Australia, though, unfortunately.
