A Healing Town Just Like in British Dramas! Penrith Holds the Entire Spring

On this trip to the UK, I unlocked a super niche but breathtakingly beautiful place—Penrith! It's like a hidden gem in Great Britain, and I can't let anyone miss out on it! ✨Itinerary Day 1: Arrive in Penrith in the morning, take the bus to the hotel to check in. The scenery along the bus route is also quite nice. After dropping off your luggage, walk to Penrith Castle. The broken walls and ruins tell stories of history, allowing you to feel the passage of time. I recommend spending 1–2 hours here. Day 2: Take a taxi to the Lake District National Park in the morning. The landscape here is as beautiful as a painting. Hike, row a boat, and immerse yourself in nature all day long. Day 3: Take a train to Askham in the morning to experience the quaint and tranquil English countryside life. Return to Penrith in the afternoon to stroll through the local market and experience the vibrant atmosphere. Spend 3–4 hours here. 🌟Highlights The Lake District National Park is truly my favorite part of this trip! Rolling green hills, crystal-clear lake water, and leisurely grazing sheep. When the sunlight shines on the lake, it shimmers, making every photo wallpaper-worthy! Askham is peaceful and beautiful, with ancient stone houses and flower-filled courtyards, as if time has slowed down. Strolling here is truly healing. 🍱Food Recommendations You must visit The George Inn, located in the city center. Their shepherd's pie, with soft mashed potatoes paired with tender minced meat, is incredibly satisfying with every bite! There's also the classic British fish and chips, with crispy fish and chunky chips, sprinkled with salt and vinegar—a truly authentic British taste. 🏠Accommodation Experience I stayed at The Crown Hotel, which is in a great location right in the center of Penrith, making it easy to get anywhere. The hotel has an elegant environment, cozy rooms, and attentive staff. The breakfast offers a wide variety, ensuring an energetic start to the day. ⚠️Important Notes It's best to book tickets in advance on the official website for the Lake District National Park, as sometimes during peak season, buying tickets on-site requires long queues. The weather in Penrith is changeable, so it's essential to carry an umbrella. Also, it can be a bit chilly in the mornings and evenings, so bring a warm jacket. Penrith is truly a place full of surprises, with unforgettable natural scenery and cultural atmosphere. I believe you'll fall in love with it too, so plan your trip now!
