Lancashire
From forestland to coastline and rollercoasters to ruins, Lancashire is a diverse melting pot of historic monuments, family-friendly events, seaside resorts and bustling nightlife. So if you’re looking for unique places to stay then a holiday rental in Lancashire could be the perfect choice. At one end of the scale you have Blackpool – famous or infamous depending on your point of view but always vibrant and memorable. Don’t miss the vertiginous Blackpool Tower or the UK’s tallest rollercoaster at Blackpool Pleasure Beach. On the other hand you have the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a 312 square mile stretch of countryside which encompasses moorland, mountains and pre-historic villages. Whether you’re camping, glamping or luxuriating in a country house, this is an exceptional setting for a proper getaway.
Without a doubt, a cottage in Lancashire would be an ideal base for outdoor pursuits enthusiasts. The unspoilt countryside is heaven for ramblers, those who want more of a challenge can scale Pendle Hill, there are lots of places to fish and mountain bike, or you could explore the waterways by boat. If you’re more into culture and heritage then you will love discovering the numerous churches, museums, castles and mansions. And don’t forget to make time for some of the other destinations in the county – the university city of Lancaster, the coastal villages of Morecambe Bay, the market town of Clitheroe and the tiny yet significant hamlet of Dunsop Bridge would all make excellent locations for a holiday rental in Lancashire. Whatever sort of escape you’re after, this is an area that is well worth your time.
