As one who has graced the Cricket Ground at B'pool, and stayed in the B'pool area many times, well, lets face it its only a three hour drive or so for me. I have to say, never tried their fish n chips. The place was looking pretty sad for itself the last time I drove down the so called Golden Mile.
However, the locals are very friendly and the entertainment is cheap compared tae doon souf. BUT, first!!! Geez a breck wul you, yer at the kiddin.
If they had said Bridlington becoz of Fish n Chips, I widny argue wi that wan.
I have been to all of the first nine places, bar that part of Cornwall. Stonehenge may have history, but the Norfolk Broads are light years ahead when it comes to holidaying than there. Only the lakes on a bright sunny day may win IMHO.
