Lytham & The Southport Flower Show
Based at LINDUM HOTEL
DEPARTS FRIDAY 20TH AUGUST
RETURNS MONDAY 23RD AUGUST
4 Days from £287
We are pleased to introduce a long weekend break to Lancashire based in the attractive resort of Lytham St Anne’s with its expansive sandy beach, Victorian pier, and stylish independent shops. Included in the tour will be a full day visit to the Southport Flower Show – the UK’s largest and longest running independent flower show. For four days in August, the show’s venue at Victoria Park is transformed into a horticultural haven with over a million blooms which provide a spectrum of colour and explosion of reds, oranges, yellows, blues and purples. Prepare to be dazzled by the spectacular show gardens as the best designers in the business transform small plots into breathtaking displays which will leave you buzzing with ideas for your own garden.
Our base for the tour is the very comfortable LINDUM HOTEL which is located on the seafront adjacent to an attractive promenade and just five minutes’ walk from the elegant Edwardian town centre of St Anne’s. Features of the hotel include a restaurant and bar/lounge area (where there will be entertainment on two evenings). All of the en suite bedrooms have tv, telephone and hospitality tray. A passenger lift serves all floors
