Penshurst is a riverside suburb with great local cafes, open spaces and local amenities. With the warmer, spring weather now upon us, it’s the perfect time for our residents to get out and explore their local area. Here are some of our recommendations of activities to enjoy in and around Georges Estate this spring.
One of the most enjoyable things to do in spring is spend time outdoors. Penshurst offers several beautiful parks and gardens perfect for leisurely strolls and picnics:
- Penshurst Park: Just a short walk from Georges Estate, Penshurst Park is a lovely spot for a morning or afternoon walk. The park features well-maintained pathways, shaded areas, and ample seating, making it ideal for seniors to enjoy the fresh air and spring blossoms.
