What to pack for England

England is mild and rainy even during summer. You’ll want to bring layers and make sure to have waterproofs with you at all times, There are a few things you should always remember to pack no matter what.

Bring your walking shoes with you because you will want to be comfortable. If you intend to hike, make sure your hiking shoes are also waterproof. Pack your preferred cosmetics but don’t worry if you forget something, as England has major supermarkets and department stores with all the necessary goods and all known international brands. For cosmetics, visit Boots or Superdrugs.

Summer packing – Summer is mild, and rain is likely. Pack light and breathable materials. Shorts, skirts, dresses, sandals. Loose textiles in light colours if possible. You should have a swimming costume with you in case you decide to visit the seaside or a pool in the city.

Autumn packing – Autumn is mild and beautiful, but they can be pouring too. A waterproof jacket, as well as a light jacket for the cooler evenings, should be added to your suitcase. Get your walking shoes and long trousers. During the day, wear chinos with a shirt.

Winter packing – Winters are cold and wet. Get the warmest winter jacket you can find and layer up. Get warm merino wool thermals, wool or synthetic layers and a fluffy, warm jumper. Bring thermal underwear and trousers. Make sure your boots are waterproof.

Spring packing – If you visit at the beginning of the Spring, bring warm clothes and your winter jacket. Some waterproofs are a must. If you visit towards the end of Spring, pack lighter clothes, some shorts, T-shirts and dresses and walking shoes. For evenings, you should have a trench coat or a jacket to keep you warm.

Irrespective of the season, pack enough socks and underwear, toiletries and a small medical kit. For example, bring your own band-aids, earplugs, hand sanitiser and medical face masks. Don’t forget your universal charger/adaptor and some laundry bags to make your life easier.

Where to stay in England

Prices in England are fairly high, and they fill up quickly. Make sure to book your accommodation well in advance to get the best rates.

If you decide to stay in a city, you should book your accommodation as close to the old centre as possible to have access to all points of interest and attraction.

National Parks all have their pubs and inns as well as quaint cottage accommodation. There is limited accommodation in national parks, which is paramount that you book your accommodation well ahead.

English food

England has plenty of traditional and international dishes to offer. During your visit, you’ll definitely want to try some classics like fish and chips from the seaside. But there’s a lot more to English cuisine than you’d think.

Start with a traditional English breakfast which comes with eggs, sausages, bacon, toast, veggies and baked beans. After all, you’ll need all the energy to explore the country. If you want a lighter meal, enjoy toast with butter and jam or crumpets served with butter.

A marmite and cheese sandwich is a must-try. Marmite is a spread based on yeast extract. If you’re having a traditional afternoon tea, try the scones with jam and cream, served with a proper cup of black English tea. Have it with or without milk, your choice.

If it’s Sunday, then head to the local pub to try some traditional English food. Enjoy a Sunday roast which is essentially a dish consisting of meat, potatoes, vegetables and Yorkshire pudding, served with gravy on top.

Are you big on pies? Try a Cornish pasty, a steak, and kidney pie or go for the layered options: Cottage and Shepherd’s Pie.

For something unconventional, try some black pudding or a toad in the hole.

Whichever dish you decide to try, you are going to love it.

Shopping and souvenirs

If you love shopping experiences, England has lots of department stores, malls and independent shops.

London is well known for its large department stores and market areas. There are many long-standing indie boutiques, some of which date back since the 17th century.

Of course there’s so much more you can get including books, original albums, posters, special English gin and even toys from Hamleys on Regent Street. Harry Potter lovers will find specialised gifts everywhere in England and elegant travellers will want to purchase a perfume from Floris or a special hat from Lock & Co Hatters, a shop established in 1676.
