5 Day Select Holiday
This tempting holiday of contrasts is based in Kingston-Upon-Hull, Yorkshire’s only waterfront city. Hull is the onetime home of poet Philip Larkin and was designated UK City of Culture in 2017. It boasts a wealth of attractions such as the Streetlife Museum of Transport, the city’s top visitor attraction where you can hop on a tram or enjoy a carriage ride through a recreated 1930s street scene then view exhibits including a Hobby Horse bicycle dating from 1818. Hull’s Old Town features interesting buildings including the seventeenth century house where the slavery abolitionist William Wilberforce was born. The Old Town also boasts Georgian dwellings and Ye Olde Black Boy, one of the oldest pubs on the High Street. Elsewhere, step aboard Spurn Lightship to learn about Hull’s maritime past, view the iconic Humber Bridge or follow the Philip Larkin Trail through the heart of the city to Hull History Centre.
PLEASE NOTE: Price is per person and based on two people sharing a twin/double room. Single room supplements and upgrades are not included.

Your Excursions
The Market Town of Beverley
Beverley features a stunning medieval skyline and is home to a graceful gothic minster, an Edwardian art gallery, cobbled streets, quaint boutiques and traditional pubs. Beverley was voted one of the best places to live in the UK and is one of Yorkshire’s best kept secrets.
Bridlington & Hornsea
Stroll Bridlington’s award winning promenade or quaint old town, perhaps explorethe pre-Roman harbour, hop on the land train that runs up and down the seafront or step aboard a pleasure cruiser for a sail around the harbour. Later we continue to the quintessential seaside resort of Hornsea with its peaceful beach, towering Victorian folly, huge freshwater lake and variety of seabirds. Perhaps visit Hornsea Folk Museum which houses the world’s largest collection of Hornsea Pottery.
Kingston-Upon-Hull
A free day to explore Hull. Perhaps visit the William Wilberforce House Museum. This striking mansion is a former merchant’s house and birthplace of the famous campaigner against the slave trade. The museum tells the story of the trans-Atlantic slave trade and its abolition. Galleries give an insight into West African culture and displays show items that belonged to Wilberforce such as journals and original costumes. Afterwards, maybe call at the nearby Streetlife Museum.
