15 Reasons You Wish You Were From Yorkshire

4. Our Countryside Is Stunning

Yeah yeah, the Cornish coast. Impressive. Bit boring, though. And yeah yeah, the Cumbrian mountains. Solid, if a bit drab. Yorkshire, on the other hand, boasts not only the stunning North York Moors but also the Dales and the Wolds. Put simply, we own Countryfile. Every week John Craven is talking up the splendour of our Neolithic naturescapes and medieval pubs carved into Jurassic caves. If that's not enough, we have a hill called Roseberry Topping that looks like a giant breast complete with sandstone nipple that, quite naturally, we named after the Norse god Odin. Yet another win.
