England’s Hidden Travel Destinations

Madison Genthry November 22, 2024 4 min read

If you’re considering visiting England, you may have London, Bath, Cornwall, York, and the Lake District on your radar, but there is so much more on offer. There are several hidden travel gems just waiting to be discovered, from charming villages and dramatic scenery, to bustling cities packed with historic charm. England is bursting with unique travel destinations for an unforgettable experience, so why not take a look at some of these lesser known places?

Lancashire: A Treasure Trove of History and Nature

In the northwest of England, Lancashire often flies under the radar compared to neighbouring Manchester or Liverpool, or even the pretty charm of the Lake District in the bordering county. Yet, Lancashire has a depth of history and offers unique and dramatic natural landscapes.

The city of Preston, in the heart of Lancashire, boasts a rich tapestry of heritage, culture, and natural beauty that makes it well worth a visit. From museums showcasing historical artifacts and charting the region’s industrial heritage to the bustling and vibrant city center shopping and markets and the beautiful Victorian parks, Preston offers something for everyone. Here you can find five star meals, traditional British “pub grub”, festivals and events throughout the year, and a range of hotels and accommodation including boutique and luxury hotels.

Beyond the city, the Ribble Valley is perfect for the quintessential English views of rolling countryside and picturesque villages. The nearby Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is a haven for walkers, cyclists, and wildlife enthusiasts alike, offering a tranquil break to enjoy the charms of Blighty.

Derbyshire: The Quiet Charms of the Peak District

Derbyshire, home to the Peak District National Park, is a county steeped in natural beauty and history. While cities like Sheffield and Manchester border this region, the smaller villages and towns offer a unique allure to which you should pay attention.

One such gem is Castleton, known for its limestone caverns and quaint cottages. Exploring Peveril Castle, perched high above the village, provides panoramic views of the surrounding dales. For adventure seekers, the Blue John Cavern, famous for its unique semi-precious mineral deposits, offers a memorable underground experience.

In Buxton, a charming spa town often overshadowed by Bath, you’ll find the stunning Pavilion Gardens and the historic Buxton Opera House, both set against the dramatic backdrop of the Peaks.

Norfolk: Tranquility on the East Coast

Norfolk, often eclipsed by nearby Suffolk or Cambridge, offers a serene retreat with its expansive coastlines and idyllic countryside. The Norfolk Broads, a network of rivers and lakes, is a paradise for boaters and wildlife enthusiasts. Renting a small cruiser or taking a guided boat tour lets you explore this unique landscape leisurely.

Further inland, the medieval city of Norwich is a hidden gem in its own right. With its stunning cathedral, cobblestone streets, and vibrant markets, Norwich provides a delightful mix of history and modernity. Don’t miss Elm Hill, a perfectly preserved Tudor street that feels like stepping back in time.

Shropshire: Stepping into the Past

Shropshire, nestled on the Welsh border, is a county of breathtaking landscapes and historical significance. Often overlooked in favour of more prominent destinations, it offers unspoiled beauty and a deep connection to England’s industrial and medieval past.

Ludlow, known as the “food capital of Shropshire,” boasts a stunning medieval castle and a thriving culinary scene. The surrounding Shropshire Hills, designated as an Outstanding Natural Beauty Area, provide endless walking and hiking opportunities.

In Ironbridge, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, visitors can marvel at the world’s first cast-iron bridge and explore a series of fascinating museums dedicated to the Industrial Revolution.

Northumberland: Untamed Beauty

In the far north of England, Northumberland is a county of dramatic landscapes and rich history. Its rugged coastline, punctuated by castles like Bamburgh and Dunstanburgh, contrasts the rolling moors inland.

One of the standout attractions is Hadrian’s Wall, a Roman Britain relic stretching across the countryside. Walking along its ancient path provides an unparalleled sense of history.

The Farne Islands, accessible by boat, are a haven for birdwatchers and seal enthusiasts, particularly during the breeding season. Meanwhile, the market town of Alnwick is home to the stunning Alnwick Castle and Gardens, famously featured in films like Harry Potter.

A Journey into Lesser-Known England

For a rich tapestry of experiences, visit some of England’s hidden gems away from the well-trodden path. Whether wandering through Lancashire’s Ribble Valley, exploring the serene Norfolk Broads, or marvelling at Northumberland’s rugged beauty, these destinations remind us that sometimes, the most rewarding adventures are found off the beaten track.
