Hunmanby is a village on the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds. It has plenty of eating and drinking options as well as accommodation due to its vicinity to both the Yorkshire coast and the Wolds. It was once the largest village in Britain but has since lost the title.

The archway on the edge of the village is a mock gothic ruin, The Old Folly, now a holiday lodge.

On display in All Saints Church on Church Hill is a Chain Bible dating from 1541. After the dissolution of the monasteries, Henry VIII demanded that an English bible be housed in every church and read to the congregation. As books were so expensive and rare at the time, the bibles were locked to the church by a chain. This is apparently one of only six surviving 16th century chain bibles.
