Advantages: The Best Hotel in Lytham St Annes. Disadvantages: Whoa! is it pricey!
This Hotel is in the prime position in Lytham. It faces the 2 or so miles of Lytham Green. There are scenic views of the Welsh hills and the Pennines in the distance and views of the Ribble Estuary. Close by is the famous windmill.
The hotel takes its name from the Clifton family. They were the main landowners in the area. There are many references to the Clifton family locally. Their family seat was Lytham Hall. This is open to the public on occasion. It is now owned by an insurance company. (AXA)
The Clifton Arms Hotel was first erected on Clifton Street, in the space that is now Park Street, on or around 1794. This was apparently a coaching inn. Its successor, the current hotel, was built in 1840 on West Beach. In 1875 all buildings comprising the hotel were raised to the same height. Clearly the hotel was built at the height ...
Advantages: A comfortable hotel and great restaurant Disadvantages: Quite a walk up the hill or steps if escalator is not on
I had a very hectic Christmas last year cooking for the family and generally doing far too much eating and drinking, so when it came to New Years Eve I was worn out, and to be quite honest just could not face another knees up to see the New Year in.
My husband came up with the idea of going for a pint at tea time then back home for a night in front of the television. I agreed with that idea and then he piped up that we would have to go to bed early because we were getting up at six in the morning to drive to Scarborough and staying over night in the grand Hotel.
Scarborough is about three and a half hours drive from where we live so we took a steady pace travelling over the moors keeping away from the motorway. It was great no stress and gorgeous scenery. There was quite a lot of snow on the moors but the roads were clear ...
Advantages: nice seaside destination Disadvantages: very busy in the summer holidays
I've been to Scarborough a couple of times with friends and enjoyed the time I spent there. It's a stereotypical British seaside resort, complete with donkey rides on the beach. I think it's a great place to visit for a day, maybe two, but I wouldn't want to spend the week there.
~ The Beaches ~
Scarborough has two bays, the north and south. Both of these have long, sandy beaches perfect for sandcastles, paddling, sunbathing and everything else you'd expect of a beach. If you go on the weekend in the middle of summer though you can expect these beaches to be packed. The north beach tends to be quieter, but that might be because there's less there.
You'll find a couple of little shops selling ice creams and bucket and spades, but not a lot else at the north bay. If you want a beach with more room to spread out for a game ...
