In Cumbria’s Eden Valley, Penrith is a thriving and ancient market town, filled with history, shops and lots of attractions, making for a fulfilling spa day or break
The enormous 14th-century Penrith Castle is very much an icon in the area, which has made its name across the centuries for its historic sites and surrounding natural beauty. It’s well known for its location by the Nepean River, famous for the Head of the River boat races, there’s the Norman Brougham Castle and the prehistoric monument of Mayburgh Henge and Beacon Hill, with its Penrith Beacon monument and panoramic views
Just outside the Lake District National Park, Penrith is not far from Ullswater, where you can take part in water sports such as kayaking, canoeing, wild swimming and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). You can also explore the park on foot with plenty of hiking opportunities. Other attractions include the Dalemain Mansion and Historic Gardens and Whinfell Forest.
