DAY ONE - Arrival

We depart from your home and travel to Lancashire, arriving late afternoon in Lytham St Annes, with time to relax before dinner.

 

DAY TWO – Lancaster Castle

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 THREE – Lytham Hall and Lytham St Annes

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 to explore the mature parkland surrounding the hall.

 

In the afternoon, we’ll then 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 FOUR – Afternoon tea Experience at Blackpool Tower Ballroom

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 FIVE - Departure

This morning after breakfast we depart our hotel for our homeward journey with comfort stops en route.
