St Michael's Catwick

The church sits in the village of Catwick, just outside Driffield, and it's one of those places that rewards a quiet morning wander. St Michael's is a medieval parish church with proper character - the kind of building where you can actually feel the centuries pressing down on the stonework. The interior has a straightforward charm: nothing flashy, no velvet ropes or gift shop, just pews, monuments, and the sort of light that comes through old glass and makes everything feel a bit removed from the world outside.

This is really for people who enjoy church architecture without the crowds, or those tracing family history in East Yorkshire. The churchyard itself is worth a walk around, and if you're staying at one of the nearby parks - High Farm Holiday Park is closest at just over two miles away - it's an easy leg-stretch from your caravan or pod. You won't spend hours here, but that's rather the point. Thirty minutes to an hour is about right, depending on how much time you want to spend reading inscriptions and looking at roof timbers.

Worth fitting in if you're exploring the Driffield area and staying in the cluster of holiday parks scattered within a few miles. It's the sort of stop that breaks up a day of driving or makes a proper walk more interesting - not a destination in itself, but exactly what you'd want when you stumble across it.
