Summer is the perfect time to get outdoors and explore everything East Yorkshire has to offer. With open countryside, beautiful coastline, and peaceful rural villages nearby, there are plenty of ways to enjoy the fresh air during your stay.

Located just outside Beverley, Pasture House Holiday Cottages provides an ideal base for discovering local walks, outdoor activities, and scenic spots across the region.

Explore the Countryside Around Beverley

The area surrounding Beverley is ideal for relaxed summer exploring. Quiet country lanes, open landscapes, and charming villages create a peaceful setting for gentle walks and scenic drives.

While there are no public footpaths directly from the cottages, many lovely walking routes can be reached within a short drive. Guests will also find recommended walks included in the welcome pack to help make planning easy.

Enjoy Walks at Beverley Westwood

Beverley Westwood is one of the most popular walking spots near Beverley and is especially enjoyable during the summer months.

Its wide open green space and panoramic views make it perfect for a gentle stroll, a relaxed picnic, or simply enjoying the warmer weather. Its location close to the town centre also makes it easy to combine with shopping, lunch, or coffee in Beverley

Coastal Walks and Beach Days at Fraisthorpe Beach

For guests wanting to enjoy the coast, Fraisthorpe Beach is within easy reach and offers one of the area’s best spots for summer walks.

The wide sandy beach is ideal for long strolls, paddling, and enjoying the sea air. Many guests also enjoy stopping at the nearby Cow Shed Café after a walk for refreshments and a relaxed lunch.

Combining countryside accommodation with coastal days out is one of the highlights of staying in East Yorkshire.

Discover the Yorkshire Wolds

For those looking for more challenging walks or scenic outdoor routes, the Yorkshire Wolds offer a beautiful change of landscape.

Rolling hills, quiet roads, and picturesque villages make the Wolds ideal for summer exploring. Sections of the Yorkshire Wolds Way are popular with walkers wanting longer countryside routes and impressive views.

There are also plenty of welcoming country pubs and cafés along the way, including the Wolds Inn at Huggate, making it easy to turn a walk into a full day out.

Outdoor Activities Across East Yorkshire

Beyond walking, summer is a great time to enjoy outdoor activities across East Yorkshire. Guests often spend time exploring coastal towns, visiting local attractions, enjoying outdoor dining, or simply taking scenic drives through the countryside.

The combination of coast, countryside, and market towns means there’s always something different to experience nearby.

Enjoy Longer Summer Days

One of the best things about July is the longer daylight hours. Early mornings and lighter evenings give you more time to enjoy days out without feeling rushed.

Whether you’re planning a full day exploring the coast or a relaxed evening walk before dinner, summer stays offer a slower and more flexible pace.

Return to Peaceful Countryside Surroundings

After a day outdoors, returning to Pasture House Holiday Cottages allows guests to relax and unwind in peaceful rural surroundings.

The cottages provide a comfortable base for enjoying East Yorkshire at your own pace — balancing active days out with quiet evenings in the countryside.
