Imperial Blackpool and the Lake District

Steeped in history, the 4-star Imperial Hotel in Blackpool boasts a dominating position on the seafront, and has welcomed many celebrated figures from prime ministers to The Beatles! Guests can enjoy fine dining and incredible views in the Palm Court restaurant or head to the No.10 bar for drinks in a relaxing setting. During our stay, we’ll journey through the past with a ride on a vintage tram, before having afternoon tea at the iconic Blackpool Tower, which is renowned for its stunning architecture and remarkable dance floor. Discover the Lake District with a nostalgic steam train ride on the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway and a cruise along Lake Windermere, with time for a ‘Brief Encounter’ at Carnforth Station to visit the museum commemorating its filming location. You'll also have the chance to visit ancient Lancaster and its seaside neighbour, Morecambe, making this tour the perfect blend of city, countryside and coastal sights!

The 4* Imperial Hotel is an iconic Victorian landmark on Blackpool's seafront, just yards from the beach and a short walk from major attractions, including the Blackpool Tower and Winter Gardens. Host to royalty, politicians and stars of stage and screen, the Imperial's No.10 Bar commemorates all the UK's prime ministers who have stayed at the hotel. Interestingly, beneath the hotel a restoration project is taking place to uncover the ornate Burmantofts tiles of the Turkish Baths, installed in 1898 but covered up in the 1950s. There are few hotels in the northwest  that can compare with the Imperial in terms of history.
