If you want some classic buildings and culture visit John Rylans Library, the museum, central library, the hidden gem, town hall tour, urbis, MOSI, and of course our stadium tour .
For some beautiful scenery a drive to Dovestones or Torside reservior on a nice day is perfect.
the peaks, pennines, lyme park and chatsworth are also not that far away either.
Liverpool, Southport, Lytham/St Annes, if you want the coast are all short drives away (hr n arf max).
Oh and if you get homesick all the spars in town sell buckfast ;-)
