Summer is the season to get outdoors and start exploring.
With lovely landscapes and beauty spots galore, there’s perhaps no better place than Yorkshire.
God’s Own Country features a wealth of lovely villages which make great day trips and many are just a short drive from the city of Leeds.
If you want to get in touch with nature, here are 13 villages near our city which are wonderful to wander through.

13. Esholt, West Yorkshire
Esholt is perhaps best-known as the filming location for Emmerdale from 1976-1997. Now, the Bradford village still features a Woolpack pub, alongside great nature walks through Esholt Woods.
