North West England

North West England

There's so much to see and do in England's North West - vibrant city life, a wealth of award winning industrial heritage, a host of outstanding attractions and a world class cultural scene. Add to these a spectacular coastline with Britain's favourite seaside resorts and, off the beaten track, delightfully undiscovered countryside and you're spoilt for choice!

Of course you can't visit the North West without taking time out at the seaside with three famous resorts - Blackpool, Southport and Morecambe. Blackpool is home to the world's tallest and fastest rollercoaster and the Blackpool Illuminations remain a massive crowd puller.

Off the beaten track the North West has miles of unspoilt countryside from the dramatic hill landscape of the Dark Peak in the Peak District of Derbyshire to the leafy Forest of Bowland in Lancashire.
