ヨークシャーのイーストライディングの洞窟・トップ5

12th Century motte and bailey castle constructed on a raised mound of earth surrounded by a defensive ditch. Before the surrounding marshland was drained in the late medieval period, the castle would have effectively sat on an island. Pedestrian gates were installed at the site in 2023 due to damage caused by off road motorbikes. Unfortunately, they aren't working, there were plenty of tyre tracks in the mud all over the hill in October 2025.

A beautiful old mansion with a unique interior and a lovely garden. There's also a good café next door. Ideal for a stop.

Nice and secluded property but unfortunately weather was bad so didn't hang around worth a visit again

Just be respectful of caravan residents and farm animals especially in spring when there's an abundance of sheep either lambing or caring for there young

Always stop at the big house for a well earned rest natter and either a cuppa from the cafe or from a flask outside at the gates plenty of cakes and coffee well worth a visit free to enter the cafe

Wressle Castle is a medieval ruin built as a palace-fortress in the 1390s. Once owned by Thomas Percy it is now privately owned, but open to the public on occasion. The castle was once much bigger with four sections that formed a square around a courtyard, now only one remains.

It’s a lot better than the pictures make it look, it was a great ride to the holiday park

Burton Constable Hall is a Grade I listed Elizabethan Mansion. It is open to the public, as well as its grounds which were designed by Capability Brown. It is a popular day out in the area with its cafe, Stable Kitchen, free to visit. The most unique exhibit at Burton Constable Hall has to be the skeleton of a sperm whale, which was stranded on the coast at Tunstall in 1825. It is said that the whale inspired Herman Melville, the author of Moby Dick, published in 1851.
