Part of the National Trust, Formby is famous for its glorious beach, sweeping sand dunes and pine woods, which are home to the red squirrels, and give the cottage its name. The village also has a good selection of shops, cafes and restaurants, as well as a nearby hotel with spa and golf course. The train station, which is just a 10-minute walk, operates train services into Southport and the centre of Liverpool. Nearby attractions include the Albert Dock, Maritime Museum, Beatles Story, Liverpool One, two cathedrals and two football grounds. The city hosts many exciting events throughout the year, bringing people back again and again.

Blackpool can be reached in just under an hour by car and a 1½ hour drive will take you into the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales or Lancashire’s Ribble Valley.
