Blackpool, sitting on the northwest coast of England in Lancashire, is one of those seaside towns that's instantly recognisable. Known for its iconic tower, sandy beach, and traditional British charm, it's a place that mixes a bit of old-school seaside fun with a dose of local character. It's right on the Irish Sea and has long been a go-to for family holidays, especially during the summer months, with a promenade that still draws in the crowds.

The town really came into its own during the 19th century, booming as a tourist hotspot once the railways rolled in and made it easy for working-class families from industrial towns to escape to the coast. The population sits at just under 140,000 these days, though it swells significantly during peak tourist seasons. It grew around the idea of leisure and entertainment, and while some of its glitzy heyday has mellowed, the place still carries a strong sense of history, from Victorian piers and theatres to backstreet pubs that have seen decades pass by.

There's no shortage of things to do, from the thrills of Blackpool Pleasure Beach and the historic Tower Ballroom to the illuminations that light up the town each autumn. The beach is a big draw, especially when the sun decides to show up. You've got Madame Tussauds, SEA LIFE, and the Winter Gardens with its grand events and theatre shows. Just outside town, there's plenty more to explore – Stonyhurst College and Rufford Old Hall are National Trust gems, and Lytham Hall offers a lovely spot for a wander. English Heritage sites like Sawley Abbey and the remains of Greenhalgh Castle are not far either, adding a bit of heritage trail to your trip.

Further out in the wider Lancashire area, there's a surprising amount to see. Pendle Hill comes with stories of witches and wide views across the countryside. The Forest of Bowland's great for walking and cycling, while towns like Clitheroe and Lancaster bring a mix of independent shops and historic landmarks. You've got seaside neighbours like Morecambe if you fancy another stretch of sand, or head to Preston for a bit more urban buzz. It's a county that really blends coast, countryside and market town charm without trying too hard.

Getting in and out of Blackpool's pretty straightforward. The M55 links it directly to the M6, so road access is decent. There's a train station right in the centre—Blackpool North—connecting you to Preston and beyond, making it easy for people coming from Manchester, Liverpool or even further afield. The nearest major airport is Manchester, though Blackpool does have a small airport mainly used for private flights and some training. Local buses and trams do a solid job keeping everything connected once you're in town, especially along the seafront.

Lancashire as a whole is one of those counties that's often overlooked, but it's got a proper mix of gritty industrial heritage, rolling countryside, and down-to-earth communities. It's not flashy, but it doesn't need to be. From the old cotton towns to the Ribble Valley's greenery, it's got a quiet confidence. There's something real about Lancashire – the people, the history, the land – and Blackpool is a big part of that story, playing its role with flair.
