Food lovers looking to get a taste of Yorkshire on their touring caravan holiday can get a selection of the region’s best produce in a new hamper, which is being offered by the local tourist board. Visit Hull and East Yorkshire (VHEY) is offering the Pick up a Picnic hamper to encourage people to make the most of the outdoor eating spots across the area.

Caravan owners and other touring holidaymakers can choose from three different packs, including home-baked bread rolls, East Yorkshire strawberries and fresh cream truffles.

Also included in the hamper is a free family ticket to several local attractions, including Stewart’s Burnby Hall & Gardens, RAF Holmpton, Cruckley Animal Farm and Sewerby Hall – the two-time winner of a national picnic destination award.

Janet Reuben, chief executive of VHEY, said: “East Yorkshire is a fabulous destination for a picnic: its superb local produce, spectacular scenery and fascinating attractions are the perfect ingredients for a great day out.”

The picnic hampers can be ordered online for £25, including one family attractions ticket.
