r/yorkshire

Morning all,

Currently living in Ireland and myself and my partner will be visiting Yorkshire in the new year as we would like to move there. I would love to hear all the positives and negatives (if needed lol) of living in Yorkshire?

We like that it’s away from the big cities like London as we want a quite life away from the noise

EDIT : I’m asking about towns in Yorkshire too and any advise would be appreciated

Family of 4 , kids 12 and 9, have been travelling to cities in North of England for holidays. Since starting this last year, we have done Newcastle, Manchester, York and then Newcastle again.

In a couple weeks, we will be visiting Leeds for 3 days. It was a toss up between Sheffield and Leeds and, after seeing some posts on here, I pushed for Leeds.

But now, we still don't have any stand out activities in mind, nothing booked except travel and accommodation.

Please let me know if the things we absolutely miss. What can I tell the family to get them excited?!

Thanks in advance.

Did anyone else's grandparents / parents refer to the Co-Op as the "quorp" I remember my Gran from Bradford using it and wondered if it was just a Bradford thing or more widespread?
