2025 Penarth Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

#summervacay I just discovered a truly special piece of art history in London: Turner's House (Sandycombe Lodge)! This isn't just any old house; it was actually designed by the celebrated British landscape painter J.M.W. Turner himself and built in 1813. This charming residence served as Turner's personal retreat, a place where he could escape the bustling London art scene, paint in peace, and spend time with his father. While the museum isn't large, it's clear they put a lot of thought into making the experience interactive and engaging: In the bedroom, I looked through a telescope, and it showed me a projection of the very landscape that inspired Turner outside his window back in the day. How cool is that? The living room has a unique clock that actually "speaks"—a delightful surprise! The basement features a vivid and immersive projection display, really bringing the history and atmosphere to life. Planning My Visit: It's open Wednesday to Sunday, from 12 PM to 4 PM. Admission is £12. It felt like such an intimate way to connect with one of Britain's greatest artists and understand the personal space that fueled his genius. I highly recommend it! #London #TurnersHouse #JMWTurner #SandycombeLodge #ArtHistory #LondonMuseums #HiddenGems #LondonWeekend

Penarth is an absolute delight for a stroll! Starting from the charming Victorian Pier, with its grand pavilion and stunning views across the Bristol Channel, you can wander along the Esplanade. The colorful floral displays are beautiful, and there are plenty of benches to stop and admire the scenery. Head up into the town and explore the independent boutiques and cafes on Windsor Road, or find a quiet spot in Alexandra Park to enjoy the panoramic vistas. It’s a wonderfully accessible and picturesque walk, offering a perfect blend of coastal beauty and quaint town charm. #uk #naturalwonders #europetrip

Alexandra park is a beautiful park just off the main street in Penarth, Wales - it’s a great way to walk from the town center to the seafront. It contains a main path and a few smaller paths that wind down the hill through the beautiful landscaped gardens, the gardens feature beautiful topiary displays that the garden is famous for. The paths are very wide and some go through the wooded areas, so for hot days you are able to walk from top to bottom in shaded areas. There are plenty of places to sit and there is a small childrens play area half way down, during hot days there is an independent coffee vendor that sells hot and cold drinks. The park also features Penarth’s main war memorial dedicated to those who served or fell during the two World Wars, the cenotaph itself is a listed historical monument. I love walking through the park and seeing the various trees and plants that grow there, you can see that a lot of time and effort has been spent keeping this garden in order and it’s so beautiful to see. 📍Address: Penarth Town Center - Wales 🕰️Business Hours: 8-7PM 💰Average Price per Person: free! #100WaysOfTravel #localguides #Penarth #wales #park #nature

Penarth is a beautiful seaside town and luckily my hometown, growing up here was amazing during the summers and it’s so nice to come back for a visit. The seafront has a long calm beach and the beachfront is lined with shops, restaurants and bars - newer independent coffee shops are also starting to appear. The highlight of the seafront is the Pier, built in 1898 it has become an iconic landmark for penarth and wales as a whole. The pier used to be a dock for steam boats that would cruise up and down the Bristol Channel. After a multi million pound refurbishment in 2013 the pier is now a big social hub for the area, the pavilion contains a cinema, cafe and ice cream parlours. It’s a great place to take in the views or relax with a coffee, it’s dog and family friendly and it’s good for all weathers! 📍Address: Penarth seafront, Wales 💰Average Price per Person: Free for the pier £3/4 per coffee or cake on the pier #100waysoftravel #penarth #wales #beachtrip #mytravelhacks #staycation

On a road trip in the UK, one of the stops was in Cardiff. I woke up early in the morning and had no idea where to have brunch, so I just searched for nearby attractions on Google map and drove to Penarth Pier Pavilion. When we got there, we found it was so beautiful. A pier extending to the center of the sea, with a grey rocky beach and the grey sky that day, gave people a feeling of indescribable beauty with a hint of depression. The whole place felt very British. There are a series of huts of different colors behind the rocky beach, and different pubs in the basement provide breakfast, lunch and dinner. If you are not in a hurry, you can really stay here for a whole day😙😙 #国外游 #beaches #8月vlog
