10 Other Outdoor Activities in Yorkshire That You Shouldn't Miss

August 30, 2021 Natalie Tallman

Yorkshire (/ˈjɔːrkʃər, -ʃɪər/; abbreviated Yorks), formally known as the County of York, is a historic county of Northern England and the largest in the United Kingdom. Due to its great size in comparison to other English counties, functions have been undertaken over time by its subdivisions, which have also been subject to periodic reform. Throughout these changes, Yorkshire has continued to be recognised as a geographical territory and cultural region. The name is familiar and well understood across the United Kingdom and is in common use in the media and the military, and also features in the titles of current areas of civil administration such as North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, West Yorkshire and East Riding of Yorkshire.

Just got home after a weekend stay here for my daughters hen do. The farm is in a beautiful country setting of rolling hills & panoramic views of the Yorkshire countryside. The accommodation was absolutely fantastic very spacious, amazing open plan layout with great tasteful decor. The kitchen had everything you would ever need, large open plan comfortable living room and everywhere underfloor heated. The whole building cosy and warm all the time. The beds were very comfortable with crisp white linen & all bathrooms fully tiled wet rooms with all facilities. We also had 2 outside hot tubs great relaxing time we had in these sipping our Prosecco brilliant!!! The standard of cleanliness gets top marks!!!! Our activity time was lead by Laura she explained the plan-of action & important health & safety instructions. We split into 2 teams and headed off. We herded sheep, tractor driving, pig herding, welly wangling, egg throwing and an obstacle course!! What fun & laughter we had it really was a thrilling fun few hours in the fresh air and great to be able to sample farm life!!! Great BBQ was prepared for our arrival back from the farm, sausages & burgers from the farm were delicious!! Clearly a lot of thought effort and determination have gone into planning this Farm Adventure business and the hosts are so friendly well organised in ensuring you have a fantastic stay whilst enjoying your luxury accommodation. We all were blown away with the whole package. Thanks for exceeding expectations we had a blast!! We will be recommending you to others without a doubt, we would also love to come back!!

It is a really lovely place. The landscape is so varied with hidden depths in more ways than one. There is so many paths to explore and although we had a very little time there kids loved it and already requested to go there again another time. As we visited in February we did it not see it in the full blossoming splendour so... we need to come back! Lovely, very charming place!

Booked this for me and my brothers as part of a fun filled camping weekend and this experience just made it extra special. We loved every second! Such an incredible feeling and new to us all! Neither of us had shot a gun before and we was all a tad nervous to say the least, but the instructor made us feel comfortable within seconds of introducing himself. He was very progressional and down to earth friendly. The whole experience was amazing! I can’t recommend it enough. We have vowed that we will return every year.
