Stanwix
Stanwix, or officially known as Stanwix Rural, is part of the Carlisle City in the county of Cumbria. It is formerly a small township but has been incorporated as a separate suburb of the City of Carlisle.
The rural setting and environments of Stanwix provides a contrast to the urban landscape of Carlisle. That is why the area is a favorite place of those who wish to retire from the busy lifestyles of the city.
Catching a Glimpse of the Entire City and Surrounding Areas
Stanwix is located on an immense elevated patch of land. It can be accessed from the city of Carlisle through a stone bridge crossing the Eden River.
So from Stanwix, you can get a perfect view of the city and the vast lowland countryside surrounding it. A magnificent panorama of bright and flickering country and city lights could be seen especially at night.
Take a Trip at the River Eden
The main advantage of Stanwix over other rural township is its close proximity to the Eden River. It is specifically located north of the river bank thus providing an excellent access to the river. You can set a picnic excursion at the banks of the river and enjoy its cool surroundings.
After your river trip, you can travel across the vast countryside and survey the magnificent terraces that dot the place. Large estates and country villas can also be found abundantly at Stanwix.
Once you get a taste of Stanwix country life, you will surely be tempted to visit it regularly to avoid the congestion of the city.
