Penrith, historically the capital of Cumbria, sits at the crossroads of the Lake District and the North Pennines, making it a perfect location from which to explore the region. Penrith’s sandstone buildings conceal an abundance of charming cottages, gardens, and specialty businesses, and the town is well-known for its abundance of specialty shops. It’s no surprise that Penrith is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike because of its large variety of bars, restaurants, hotels, and entertainment options. Rheged, a cutting-edge visitor centre with shops, cafés, exhibits, and a massive cinema screen displaying educational and interesting films, is conveniently located nearby.
