UK Solo Travel Over 50 is where I explore the quieter, richer side of Britain—without needing to battle the tourist crowds or wear a Union Jack bucket hat.
As someone based here, I know how to travel the UK solo with ease, from coastal walks in Cornwall to literary strolls in the Lake District.
You’ll find tips on charming towns, historic day trips, hidden countryside gems, and how to enjoy London without needing a second mortgage.
I share solo-friendly places to stay, things to do at your own pace, and how to make the most of this brilliantly odd little island.
No gap-year-style chaos here—just smart, slow travel that lets you soak up the heritage, have a pint in peace, and maybe even enjoy a bit of British weather (with waterproof optimism).
Travelling the UK alone over 50 isn’t just doable—it’s blooming lovely.
