One of the most popular seaside resorts in England, Blackpool has been packing them in since Victorian times. This popularity continues today, with the town’s three piers, the thrills of the Pleasure Beach amusement park and the iconic Blackpool Tower, all vying for attention. The miles-long Promenade, which runs along the shore, is also a great spot to take in the local sea air.
Other top attractions include the famous Blackpool Illuminations, which festoon the seafront later in the tourist season, and the popular local tramway - which is one of the oldest electric tram systems in the world and features a mix of modern and heritage vehicles that are a great way to explore the coastline. And, should your trip coincide with the illuminations, keep your eyes peeled for a few of the trams getting in on the act with their illuminated ‘fancy dress’ - from a trawler to an Old West-style steam train. This dizzying array of family-friendly fun means there are literally hundreds of hotels in Blackpool to cater for the demand and, naturally, a great many of the larger sites are wheelchair accessible. Read on to see some of the best.
