111 Places in Lancaster and MorecambeThat You Shouldn't Miss, Ratgeber von Lindsay Sutton, David Taylor

Lancaster and Morecambe are like chalk and Lancashire cheese. So near, yet so far apart in what they offer. Morecambe, the traditional seaside resort, its ‘Bring me Sunshine’ favourite son Eric Morecambe, and Victoria Wood’s ‘Two Soups’ cafe. Plus it’s awesome 1930s Art Deco Midland Hotel, haunt of Coco Chanel and Laurence Olivier. Lancaster, with its Roman remains, its impregnable ‘John o’ Gaunt’ castle and characterful Georgian buildings, built in part from slave-trade profits. Leave the crowds behind and embrace the true character of this story-filled region, one special place at a time.
