However long you stay in South Yorkshire, you will certainly receive a warm Yorkshire welcome and enjoy a unique experience to treasure. The South Yorkshire area, encompassing Sheffield, Rotherham, Doncaster and Barnsley, has an abundance of rich heritage, gardens and open spaces, bustling nightlife and cultural events, sports and outdoor activities along with traditional rural villages and market towns.

With excellent rail links the area is less than 90 minutes from London and is served by 5 airports within an hour's journey time. And with excellent access to the motorway network is easily accessible from all parts of the country.

If you enjoy the outdoors, South Yorkshire is the gateway to the Peak District National Park, Pennine Yorkshire and the Trans Pennine Trail which cuts right across the region.  Be cultured here too as this is home to award-winning galleries, live comedy clubs, nightclubs and music venues. From the oldest classic horse race in the world, the St Leger, to World Championship Snooker, South Yorkshire also has an enviable programme of world class events.

And it's also a fun place to be: take to the slopes at Sheffield Ski Village; enjoy water sports at Rother Valley Country Park, or events at the Doncaster Dome - what will inspire you?
