Visit Sefton & West Lancashire

'Southport is home to a number of beautiful parks and gardens and for this reason the town is often referred to as the floral capital of the North West. These verdant spaces have contributed to the enjoyable floral character of the town for many years. Visited by thousands, the gardens are an important cultural asset for the people of the region, and have become much-loved tourist attractions in their own right.'

Visit Southport

'An exciting route for walkers, cyclists and horse riders linking the North and Irish seas, passing through the Pennines, alongside rivers and canals and through some of the most historic towns and cities in the North of England.'
