This family friendly seaside town hosts a programme of events and summer carnivals in the Valley Gardens, a perfect public gardens and outdoor stage space.

A small market town, Hedon's crowning glory is St Augustine's known as the King of Holderness. Stroll down the high street and have a cuppa in one of the tearooms, visit Hedon Museum, reached from Watmought’s Arcade, to find out about local history or take a guided ghost or history walk to see points of interest and related stories of Hedon through the ages.

Spurn National Nature Reserve is a unique and iconic place, internationally renowned for its wildlife and heritage.

Visitors can make their way along the three and a half mile peninsula, or climb aboard a Spurn Safari Unimog to travel in style.
