How to book cheap train tickets from Manchester to Penzance
Travelling in off-peak train times
We recommend buying train tickets from Manchester to Penzance during off-peak hours.

Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

There are various types of Railcards catering to different types of travellers, such as the 16–25 Railcard, the Family & Friends Railcard, and the Senior Railcard.

Split Tickets for greater savings
Splitting tickets is a perfectly legal practice that involves purchasing separate, cheaper tickets for different segments of your journey on the same train instead of a single ticket for the entire trip. For example, if you are travelling from Manchester to Penzance, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than a direct ticket.
Book in advance to save an average of 61%
Advance Tickets are typically released up to 12 weeks before the travel date and can offer significant savings compared to tickets purchased closer to departure. By planning your trip from Manchester to Penzance ahead of time and booking your tickets early, you can potentially save up to 61% on your travel expenses.
Group travels to save 1/3
If you are travelling in a group, be sure to check out group travel discounts. Many train companies offer a ⅓ off standard fares for groups of three to nine people, making travelling from Manchester to Penzance more affordable for families, friends, or colleagues planning a trip together.
