We are lucky to have three miles of beaches...Blackpool is renowned for miles of golden sand. The golden mile of shops and amusements. Walk South and visit the Pleasure Beach for rides a plenty. A short walk to visit the shops. Walk West and relax on the beach, I have many fond memories of taking a bucket and spade onto the beach as a child and making sand castles, we took the train in those days. its now thirty minutes by car from Burnley...How times have changed

Illuminating Experiences, A visit to Blackpool is a must when the illuminations start in September running through to November. Five miles of dazzling lights and lasers that you and your children will love. See the trams decked out in themed lights including Rockets and Mississippi style river boats. An annual favourite. Leave the car and walk instead stopping for traditional fish and chips at Harry Ramsden's, Perfect...!
