I stayed in Blackpool when I went to the Grand National a few years back. Got the TransPenine Express to Preston then the train from there to Blackpool.

Never had an issue going via Preston. However coming back I'd advise getting an earlier train to Preston as I've had too many a close shave getting my connection due to slow running trains/cancellation from Blackpool

Just come down to London, cheap flights and/or trains and there are really good deals with hotels (check Premier Inn prices at the moment). There so much to do that's better than a rundown seaside resort.

I have heard about this and was sceptical but just compared fare and the difference is amazing.
£111 Edi to Blackpool but only £82 when split into two tickets.

We took our daughter there last year during the illumimations for a couple of days and she had a ball. Things that go up and down and spin, sugary food and bright colours. You can't really go wrong.
The day we arrived we were on one of the piers when the lights came on. As we walked along the front and she saw the Tower lit up like a rainbow she told us it was 'the best place in the world'. She'll learn but I'd have no hesitation in taking her back.

There was a pub near the Pleasure beach, that we used to get dropped off at. Folk would be absolutely steaming at 1pm on the Friday afternoon
Think it was called something like Diamond Lils?
Presume it’s long gone

Every gimmick hungry yob,
Digging gold from rock and roll
Grabs the mic to tell us,
He'll die before he's sold.

I get it's a sellers market, people will pay it and these places lost a fortune over the last 18 months. However it's a risky strategy if there is a public backlash in the years to come.

I’m away to London in august. Two nights train and hotel (Yotel so nothing fancy but also far from a dump) working out about £115pp.

Travel Lodges have good bargains most of the time. Basic but clean.
Some of the prices for chalets and lodges are outrageous. Greedy sods.

The prices of lodges are ridiculous this year, we take the kids too a lodge every summer and this year they have been more than double the price to the same places we have been previously, we managed to get an ok deal for one in Nottinghamshire for a week, just need to find things for the kids to do down there now.
