There's always something to love in Telford, whether the days are long or short.
Spring heralds the return of adventure as exciting attractions and experiences throw open their doors again. Whistle along to the dawn chorus as you hike up The Wrekin for sunrise views across countryside that’s blooming back into life. Take a seat at one of the tables that spring up outside cafes and restaurants, and wander along trails scented by daffodils and bluebells.
Endless summer days are filled with festivals, picnics on riverbanks, and get-togethers in holiday homes you’ll want to live in forever. Puff through the lush scenery on a steam train, pick up a new skill at an artisan workshop or step back in time to the heady summers of Victorian and Roman times.
Summers spent rafting along the river give way to Autumnal pub walks. Exciting festivals and events move from parklands to character-packed indoor venues. Soon, it’s time for Christmas shopping in cobbled market towns. Then, before you know it, you’re freewheeling alongside hedgerows that froth with blossom.
Autumn has the best of all worlds. Morning mists fill the gorge, topped by ochre canopies. Clear, star-spangled night skies follow fiery sunsets. Food markets bustle and fields of hops and barley are harvested to make our famous ales.
Winter was made for country pubs and cosy holiday cottages – and Telford has plenty of them. Crackling log fires are just the tonic after bracing walks along heritage trails. In our ancient woodlands, the enchanting ruins of the industrial workings that gave this place UNESCO World Heritage status are revealed as nature retreats, then concealed again as spring takes its turn once more.
In Telford, every season has its charms, and everyone has their favourite season. Which is yours?
