Summer is here and June has been busy here on the Yorkshire coast. We’ve been fully occupied keeping things fresh and new, indoors and outside for the enjoyment of our visitors. It takes a lot of doing and it keeps us on out toes.
This year we at Heritage Escapes celebrate an important landmark – established in 1984, we have been expanding the holiday cottage side of our business for forty years. Two generations now share this family enterprise and we continue to approach each successive season with enthusiasm and new ideas.
The summer season has arrived, and here on our part of the spectacular East Yorkshire Coast, there is a huge range of highlights and activities for all age groups. Our visitors often comment there is so much to see and do, it is impossible to fit everything into a week – never mind a short break!
The months of May, June and July at the Yorkshire Coast offer so many events and attractions to entertain you throughout the next few weeks.
