Hull is a cosmopolitan city with access to colourful seaside resorts, a jaw-dropping coastline and miles and miles of tranquil countryside. Whether its sandcastles on the beach or a night on the tiles, clambering over cliffs or strolling around a stately home, weve got it covered.

Calm & wellbeingWhich is more luxurious and relaxing: a hot therapeutic pool lined with traditional decorative tiles - or a modern minimalist spa centre with ambient music and chic furniture? Here in Yorkshire you dont have to choose, you can simply enjoy both!

At Eastthorpe Hall, Mirfield in West Yorkshire their unique holistic approach brings a sense of wellbeing for both mind, body. With impeccable taste and an utterly client focussed approach Eastthorpe makes for a rather special day.

Over in Huddersfield Titanic Spa is one of the most exciting and advanced spa destinations in the UK. Based in a beautifully-renovated former industrial textile mill on the River Colne. The mill has gone from satanic to Titanic, you might say. The seclusion of the river valley and the grandeur of the industrial past create a magnificent setting for a leisurely wallow or a specific therapy.

While Titanic has transformed its past, Harrogates Turkish Baths are revelling in theirs. During its peak, royalty and aristocracy frequently graced the fashionable arabesque interior. It was said that on any morning during the spa season, it was possible to hold a cabinet

"lLs!&!slL"There are few places outside London that provide such a quality and variety as Yorkshire does, for a night out.


Yorkshire nightlifeYorkshire has emerged as so much more than the rolling hills and stunning landscapes that define it.

For a special night out in Yorkshire the choice is endless. For those looking to hit the town, enjoy champagne and cocktails and great music, Yorkshire delivers.

Where there once was a smattering of Northern Soul, Yorkshires nightlife has blossomed to integrate dance music, indie nights, jazz bars, bhangra beats and much more.

Places like O2 Academy Leeds, Motorpoint Arena Sheffield and The Adelphi Club in Hull are excellent for live music and live entertainment. The Adelphi Club in Hull is one of the last surviving underground live music venues in the country.

Baracoa Luxe Bar in Leeds can only be described as pure opulence, with classic and contemporary cocktails. Finally 26 Aire Street offers a variety of drinks and meals served within contemporary surroundings. Over in York enjoy wine and nibbles at Oscars Wine Bar & Bistro.

Pave Caf Bar in Hull and Fannys Ale House in Saltaire offer more variety for a stylish night out in Yorkshire.

Catwalk QueensLeeds has been transformed into Britains most inventive and colourful shopping city. Queen of the catwalks Vivienne Westwood and top British designer Paul Smith led the march north in the nineties with flagship stores in the revived Victoria Quarter. They were only slightly upstaged by the arrival of Harvey Nichols, whose opening in the arcades saw the quarter nicknamed Knightsbridge of the North. Thats not doing the Victoria Quarter any justice because Knightsbridge cant hold a candle to these lavish arcades with their mosaic ceilings, chandeliers, fountains, acres of marble and brass.

VintageFor the vintage style go to Kirkgate Market in Leeds where you will find three floors of unique vintage pieces. Bird's Yard currently houses everything from high-end vintage womenswear and accessories, an in-house stylist, bespoke dressmaking and tailoring, 20+ jewellery designers and two

With art galleries, shops, a caf and restaurant all under one roof, you can soak up some culture while you contemplate your next purchase. For a contrast that highlights Bradfords multicultural high society, go straight to Bombay Stores. Britains largest Asian department store celebrated its 40th birthday last year, and youll be spoilt for choice in this Aladdins cave of Indian fashion and design.

York for varietyYork is a boutique-lovers dream, with hundreds of stores to set the pulse racing, all scattered along quaint cobbled streets and narrow lanes. Just off the main shopping street Stonegate, Grape Lane and Low Petergate have cornered the market in stylish mens and womens wear with local talent on display next to some of Britains most celebrated designer names.

The Black Swan at Oldstead was recently announced as the only new Michelin Star restaurant in the North of England for 2012. The once humble Black Swan, which is also the only pub in Yorkshire with 3 AA Rosettes, has that rare ability to be relaxed and friendly whilst serving seriously good food.
