Best winter days out as recommended by Lancashire locals

Lancashire Telegraph readers shared their recommendations and a few areas were mentioned, including Lytham St Annes, Blackpool, Haworth and the Lake District.

One local recommended visiting Lancashire's own Lytham St Annes in winter to “potter around the main street.”

Another one said they liked to visit Blackpool, Cleveleys and St Anne's as they’re “great out ov (sic) season it's Not so busy”.

Others mentioned taking a trip to Yorkshire, including areas such as York, Haworth, Whitby, Hebden Bridge and more.

One said: “Hebden Bridge beats going out the country”.

Another commented: “Knaresborough or Harrogate market. Haworth, or York. Weather should not bother you, if you wrap up.”

A third suggested: “Skipton. Castle, open market, lots of charity shops. Canal trips, lots of good cafes, and ice cream shops.”
