The Hurstmere – A Favorite for Families in Blackpool

The Hurstmere sits a few steps from Blackpool Promenade and the beach, placing guests within a 10-minute stroll of Sandcastle Waterpark. Blackpool Pleasure Beach and Blackpool Tower are both reachable via the seafront tramway, with the stop a 5-minute walk from the hotel. Free parking for cars and motorbikes is provided on site, and Blackpool South train station is under 10 minutes away on foot.

Each en-suite bedroom has an LCD TV, a welcome tray with tea, coffee, and complimentary toiletries, and some rooms include a mini fridge and a Super Nintendo console. Guests have access to ironing facilities, hairdryers, and a selection of books and DVDs available to borrow. The hotel operates a 3-key entry system for security and offers luggage storage for early arrivals or late departures.

A freshly cooked full English breakfast is served each morning in the dining room, along with continental options including a touch-screen coffee machine and juices. The hotel's festive packages include a homemade afternoon tea loaded with treats and a 2-night stay that adds a mince pie and Prosecco on Friday night. Special diet menus and baby food are available on request, and wine or champagne can be ordered from the bar.

The on-site pirate-themed basement bar offers a well-stocked selection of drinks, a pool table, board games, and arcade games for all ages. The bar also provides complimentary children's entertainment options, such as DVDs and puzzles, and is open for evening relaxation. A designated smoking area is located on the premises, and indoor games like darts or cards are available.

Children receive small gifts such as a stick of rock or a keychain upon departure, and the hotel can lend beach supplies like buckets and spades.
