Itinerary
Day 1: Depart from your home area and travel to the Glendower Hotel, Lytham St. Annes, for a 4 nights stay dinner, bed and breakfast.
Day 2: Today we head north to visit Lancaster Castle. Dating back almost 1,000 years, the castle occupies a city-centre hilltop location on the site of three successive Roman forts. Described by English Heritage as "the Northwest’s most important historic and archaeological monument" it has a long history associated with law and order and crime and punishment. You’ll find out more about the castle's fascinating past on a guided tour. Following our visit to the castle, you’ll have some time to explore Lancaster at leisure before we return to our hotel for dinner.
Day 3: This morning, we head to 18th Century Lytham Hall - the finest Georgian House in Lancashire. It was once the ancestral home of the colourful Clifton Family, who were accused of conspiracy during the Lancashire plot to restore James II to the throne. Our guided tour tells us more of the history of the family and takes in beautiful plasterwork, Gillow furniture, and historic paintings. You’ll also have time to explore the mature parkland surrounding the hall. In the afternoon, we’ll return to our hotel where you have time to relax and enjoy our base of Lytham St. Annes. Perhaps wander around the elegant parks and gardens or take a stroll along the restored Victorian Pier before dinner this evening.
Day 4: Today we head to Lancashire’s famous seaside resort of Blackpool. No trip to Lancashire would be complete without a visit to the Blackpool Tower Ballroom where you can enjoy live music from the Mighty Wurlitzer and enjoy an Afternoon Tea Experience. The rest of the day is yours to explore Blackpool at leisure.
Day 5: After breakfast, we leave and begin our journey home.
