Southport is a lovely place to visit the beech at ainsdale was clean and could facilities in the own centre there was shops arcades a really good out door adventure playground for children and a beautiful boating lake and gardens... Avoid pontins like the plaque vastly over priced under staffed and majority of the staff were under 20 years old and just had a couldn't be bothered attitude. And the place was flthy. And the activities as advertised were not available

Nice sandy beach, lots to do as a family including a water park as well as the usual seaside attractions. The shops were real nice and we came across a nice little cafe called Pams Pantry who do a very tasty but reasonably priced breakfasts. I loved the pier, took a walk to the end and found a little arcade with games from my childhood, I had a great time in there. Of all the great things I could say about Southport, you can already see that the local council are not spending enough money to ensure this lovely tradition seaside town is preserved. I will return but I definitely will be avoiding the OYO Tequila and Dunlin Rooms. Worst place I have ever stayed. I was expecting clean quaint hotel and found instead a cesspit of a place. Which is certainly not worthy of the 4 stars that its rated, false advertising at its worse. Even the staff said it was a budget hotel

Everything you need for a nice family break.plenty to do.lots bars ,cafes and lovely shops..beach is very clean…we ate in weatherspoons which was nice,everything is close by so you can walk everywhere,lovely at night the bars are clean and very friendly,loved my visit…

Various places of interest and lots to do feels like a safe town to be in . We like the town very much and the people. Lots of interesting shops and cafes and an excellant mexican restaurant , booking recommended .

We always enjoy Southport as a day trip . This occasion we stayed sunday to friday , apart from where we stayed being a disaster (avoid Pontins at all cost. See my other review.) the destination itself didnt let us down . There's a great mix of old town and market with cafes and bars galore to drink or dine in .we do always end up with a visit to Weatherspoons . Mostly flat in the area so easy to wonder around and good for pushchairs and wheelchairs. Mobility hire is also available in the main town . Parking there is plenty to choose from. The NCP on the front is our usua choice at £6.80 for 24 hours,l but we have on this trip also used the train station car park which was £5.00 all day . There are cheaper options but further to walk . The town also has some great new additions such as along the main stretch near the pier theres a retail park with bowling. vue cinema. shops and eateries. A stroll along the pier is a must with a great little cafe at the end with good views and a penny arcade. A wonder around the boating lakes is lovely on a sunny day with boat rides, a fun fair, picnic area ,model village ,pitch and putt and a great free play area .theres a small bar by the lake next to the pier with a guy that sings all sorts of tunes and can be hear all around the lake personally I love to hear him and always have a sing along .there is a beach but the sea is rarely in reach it stay miles out most of the time .with lytham st annes and Blackpool around an hour away both worth a visit if you are staying more than a day . Dont forget Southport is also the home of the lawnmower museum (I have not been yet, but it always gives me a giggle that it actually exists. One day I may visit just to check it out ) all in all a great seaside place

Loved the shops and how Southport has not changed from when I was young 60plus years ago ,keeped it in great condition, lots of lovely places to eat had a few nice meals.even though my children are grown up I thought the price of the fun fare tickets for all day we really good
