Any suggestions for a night or 2 in Blackpool (1 Viewer)

[vectian]

We hope to be off for a break in early October and want a night or two in Blackpool for the illuminations.
We're not bothered about club houses etc., and don't even need electric hook up.
We want to be near the town centre or on a short bus ride as obviously when we do the lights I don't want to take the motorhome.
Any recommendations would be appreciated

You can park overnight at Lytham St Annes for a fiver

and there's the Shovels Pub which, I think, will allow you to park overnight if you eat/drink there

Thanks Steph is it easy to get from the pub into Blackpool for the lights

There is a bus stop outside Shovels (buses run fairly late) but I've never seen motorhomes there when we've stayed at THSs just down the road at South Shore Cricket Club last year and this so I don't know whether staying is more than a rumour.

If you are in the C&CC there are a number of rallies being run for the illuminations in October, a couple of which are at South Shore Cricket Club.

Hampton road is a great site only 5 mins walk to illuminations . Probably booked up now as its very popular but you can't get closer than this .
