Stanley Park

The 390-acre Stanley Park is a landmark in its own right, with a magical blend of architecture, horticulture and recreation. Stanley Park abounds in wildlife and its features appeal to the naturalist, the plant lover or one who would do nothing more than relax in elegant surroundings. Delightful horticultural displays can be found throughout the park. Don't miss the Italian gardens, water fountains, statues, rose gardens and Remembrance Garden. Admire the impressive Cocker Tower - a memorial to Blackpool's first Mayor Dr William Cocker, the bandstand and ornamental bridges over the lake. Boasting one of England's finest examples of Art Deco design and attracting interest from period enthusiasts, the Art Deco Café is a unique, historic restaurant offering spectacular indoor and alfresco views of the park. Stanley Park Blackpool boasts an array of family events and attractions from the award-wining Blackpool Model Village and Gardens, an expansive boating lake or for the less energetic, the children's shuttle train. Stanley Park has a long sporting history and offers the best facilities in resort from a game of pitch and putt to a round of golf, a trim trail, athletic arena and a sports club for all keep-fit enthusiasts, plus play facilities for the children.
