Morecambe: A Paw-some Place for
You and Your Pooch!
​Looking for a seaside holiday where both you and your furry best friend can have a blast? Look no further than Morecambe! This charming Lancashire town has a rich history, stunning views, and a welcoming atmosphere for dogs and their humans.
A Town with a Past (and Plenty of Lampposts for Sniffing!)
Morecambe wasn't always the holiday haven it is today. Back in the day, it was a bustling port known for its fishing industry. In fact, it's even rumoured that the Romans may have used the natural harbour way back when! (Okay, maybe your dog isn't that interested in Roman history, but you might be!). It grew in popularity as a seaside resort in the Victorian era, becoming a favourite destination for holidaymakers.
