PROFITING YOUR LIFESTYLE
With excellent schools, colleges and Universities, set amid the spectacular - yet affordable
setting of city, coast and countryside, Lancaster & Morecambe offers a superb quality of life.
The area's diverse architectural heritage, from Roman through Medieval, Georgian, Victorian
and Art Deco to the present, creates an attractive and fascinating built environment. This is set against the
awesome natural backdrop of Morecambe Bay, the Lake District, Bowland Fells and verdant valleys to the north and south.
Lancaster & Morecambe is an area rich in variety and contrast. The historic City of Lancaster is a
much-visited tourist destination with a fascinating combination of historic and cultural attractions, shopping,
nightlife and annual themed events.
Lancaster is the cultural capital of Lancashire and is dominated by the medieval castle and the River
Lune that runs through the city. The narrow, Georgian streets that surround the castle contain a wealth of attractions,
shops, bars and restaurants.
The Victorian seaside town of Morecambe is undergoing a renaissance, with massive environmental and
amenity improvements underway. A public art project centred on the Promenade and Stone Jetty has won national acclaim for its
originality and quality, while the recent restoration of the Midland Hotel and planned development of the adjacent 12 acre 'central promenade'
site is key to a vibrant new future for the town.
Morecambe also offers many facilities for the shopper, with its large covered and air conditioned Arndale Shopping Centre,
its twice weekly open and covered indoor market, as well as many small delightful shops of a more traditional style.
