The Lakeland town named one of the 'best places to live' under two hours from Greater Manchester
Think of Cumbria and the stunning landscape of the Lake District immediately springs to mind. Yet there are dozens of hidden gems in the area which are often overlooked by visitors and offer an alternative to the tourist hotspots in the national park.
Independent businesses line the town’s streets, from quaint bookshops to tapas restaurants. There’s a good selection of cosy cafes and lively pubs, and even a museum celebrating local history. Penrith’s history goes back hundreds of years, spanning from the early Bronze Age to the Normans and Plantagenets. The Romans even built two forts close to Penrith, at Brougham and Voreda.
