OUR LOCATION & CONNECTIVITY OFFERS EASY ACCESS TO THE CAPITAL, EUROPE AND BEYOND

Not only does the Humber face Northern Europe, but its strategic position at the centre of the UK, 200 miles from London, Edinburgh and Rotterdam makes it an important hub for trade and industry, and keeps you connected internationally.

Even if you choose life in a quiet village or put roots down in a coastal location; living off the beaten track need not isolate you, with Manchester only 100 miles away and Leeds, York, Lincoln and Sheffield within an hour’s reach.
