Best places to live in East Yorkshire

East Yorkshire is home to some of the UK’s best nature spots, from mountains and cliffs to spectacular stretches of coastline to stroll along. The county is also famous for its delicious culinary scene and vibrant cities, such as Hull and Beverley. If you’re looking to buy your first home here, you’ll be pleased to know that there is a wide range of properties to cater for all lifestyles and budgets. Below we’ve picked some of the best areas for your move.

Bridlington

Located in the northern part of the county along the coast, Bridlington is a picturesque seaside resort with plenty going for it. It retains its ‘old town’ feel and offers beautiful beaches to relax. If transport links are your priority, the town is also conveniently located to access the A165 between Hull and Scarborough and the A614 between Bridlington and Nottingham.

Driffield

Considered the ‘Capital of the Yorkshire Wolds’, Driffield is found in the heart of East Yorkshire. Home to the annual ‘Driffield Show’ - the UK’s largest agricultural show – properties here are below the county’s average and provide fantastic local amenities, including excellent schools, shops and pretty cafes.

Cottingham

A stone’s throw from the East Yorkshire powerhouse Hull, Cottingham is a dynamic centre filled with plenty of things to do for both adults and children. It is conveniently located for the A164 and has its own train station, making it ideal for commuters. If you’d like the idea of living in a thriving community surrounded by nature while still being close to local amenities, don’t miss our Harland Park development.
