Chester, 30/05/2025
Pack your sense of adventure (and maybe some elasticated trousers) because we’re off to Chester, the city where the Romans once stomped about in sandals, the Tudors strutted around in ruffles, and today, you can march between shops, tearooms, and historic sites with military precision!
Start with a gentle stroll along the famous city walls, where you can enjoy stunning views, pretend you’re a Roman centurion (togas optional), and enjoy the thrill of feeling slightly taller than everyone below. Next, head down to The Rows, Chester’s quirky two-tier shopping galleries, where history and retail therapy collide. Whether you’re after a unique treasure, a fancy new hat, or just an excuse to say “Ooh, that’s nice” repeatedly, this is the place to do it. Plus, shopping definitely counts as light cardio, so now it’s time to treat yourself to a spot of lunch at one of Chester’s multitude of cafes and yes, you must have cake - it’s the law. Thank goodness for those elasticated trousers! Book now - because the Romans didn’t build this city for you to sit at home!
