Morecambe

Thanks for all the info so far everyone (except Smithy obvs as we've booked!) especially juggernaut - looks like we'll have to go again. If the food is that good at the Midland we might just stay in, eat, watch the sea and sleep.

Make sure to have lunch in the Ravilious Rotunda Bar at the Midland. I highly recommend the Midland Platter (obviously one each, not shared), everything was absolutely delicious!
I never drink tea, and very little coffee so am something of an expert on fruit/herbal teas. The 'Red Berry' tea at the Rotunda bar is the best I've had anywhere!
Visit Eric's statue and take photos of one another doing silly poses, it's more or less compulsory!
Weather permitting, go for a gentle stroll along the Stone Jetty, right to the far end. The views are fabulous from there!
If you're taking the car, drive to Sunderland Point, about 6 or 7 miles from Morecambe. It's a lovely place to walk and visit 'Sambo's Grave' (apologies for the name, not of my choosing). I always take a single flower with me when we go, and leave it on his grave, as do many other people.
Depending on whether you have the car, you could consider a drive to Skipton whilst you're close(ish). It's a lovely town, Friday and Saturday are the best for Market Day, but it does get very busy. Stanforth's Butchers, otherwise known as 'The Celebrated Pork Pie Establishment', located on Mill Bridge, has the best pork pies on the face of the earth!
Bizzie Lizzie's is great for fish and chips. The are two Bizzie Lizzie's, one near the big car park and one on Swadford Street. The Swadford Street one is a proper restaurant as well as a takeaway. It's wonderful, the haddock is perfect, and instead of chips we always eat it with a salad. They also do quite a lot of gluten free things too.
The village of Wray is tiny, but has a wonderful little coffee shop with a small plant centre attached.
Kirkby Lonsdale is a lovely village, beautiful Georgian architecture, really nice independent shops. Ruskin's View, glorious place to sit a while. Great food at the Sun Inn, but they're closed on Mondays!
Have a wonderful time up here in the North!

I haven't been since I was a child, when they used to have illuminations. I don't remember much about it, but every place has something of interest to see, and I can't see Morecambe being any different. The cockles should be good at least! Hope you enjoy yourselves!

Give it a miss!

The Hotel is good, the views are good. Morecambe is a mirror of most of our seaside towns, in being sadly down at heel these days. I have a real soft spot for it though. Walking along the prom is a joy, the view across Morecambe Bay hard to beat. Heysham and Bare, at opposite ends of the town are both very pleasant.
Afternoon tea at the Midland is fun.
The Lakes are on the doorstep - have a good time.

Well I am sure you will enjoy kitty and hope you get some luxury and being well looked after.
Morecambe Bay is quite special and you can go on a guided walk across I but never ever on your own.

We are staying in the hotel Ann.

The hotel we stay in when we go to Suffolk was featured in a Times article about hotels right by the sea so we have decided to try the others they recommended. The main purpose is to recharge by looking at the sea and wandering a bit.

Plus, I have an aunt and cousins nearby. My mum fell out with the aunt years ago and I am hoping to find out why. It involved pot lids!!! I always got on well with this particular aunt.

My dad looked quite a bit Eric Morecambe so I will definitely be popping to see him.

Try Trip Advisor. I find that wherever I go, (from Skye to Zululand this year), the contributions from other travellers greatly enhance my enjoyment of the area.

I have visited when staying elsewhere but it must have been pretty unmemorable so I can't help you. However there will be lovely places to visit from there so have a lovely time.
Oh I think it is there where a hotel has been restored to its original design etc and it it supposed to be very good.
I think it was filmed in an episode of Poirot.

Eric was the first thing I thought of when I saw the title.
I've never been, have a good time kitty I hope the weathers good.

Go and say "Hello" to Eric - he'll be waiting for you on the front!

Enjoy the wonderful view across the bay to the Lake District.

Other than that - can't recommend anything else!
