Yorkshire family weekend: dales, coast and Beamish

From the open-air museum at Beamish to the long beaches of the East Riding.

Yorkshire's family weekend covers a lot of ground. Day one at Beamish (technically County Durham but a 30-minute drive from York). Day two on the Yorkshire coast — Whitby, Filey, Bridlington. Day three on the steam railways at Pickering or Embsay.
