St Annes

Things to do in St Anne's

St Anne’s Square is a 10-minute walk from The Chymes Holiday Flats! You will find everything there, a cute little village square with the essentials (Tesco, M&S, Sainsbury's, Boots, and more!) AND lots of restaurants, cafes, bars, and pubs (List of our personal favourites below). The best part is that many have outdoor heated seating, and the air is fresh and crisp!

Another draw to St Anne’s is the rock garden, it's picturesque, and a lovely area to walk around, right on the promenade. Next to it is an outdoor mini-golf green! Which is so fun and in a convenient location! Also, keep in mind, there are Beach Huts and St Anne’s Pier to check out too!

Fairhaven Lake is a beautiful saltwater lake right on the coast. On one side there is the lake, which is surrounded by greenery, then on the other, there’s the beach! There’s so much to do there, for example, you can hire a motorboat, canoe, or rowing boat, and play in the skate park, flat green bowling, tennis and basketball courts!

There’s a cafe right there and a few more surrounding the area, an RSPB discovery centre, and a park. We all go there for walks as there are trails to follow and honestly the views are stunning no matter the time or weather. There are many areas and space for a picnic, lots of geese, ducks, and swans about! Whether you’re alone, with your partner or kids you will love it here! 

Golfing in Lytham St Anne’s – We have been very lucky to have had some famous tournaments and golfers play in this town! There are lots of great golf clubs across Lytham St. Anne’s, for example, the Royal Lytham & St Anne’s Club is one of the courses in the Open Championship rotation and the Women's British Open has also played on the course five times!

Of course, we can't forget the beautiful sandy beach that stretches for miles!

Right around the corner from the flats on Alexandria Drive, you will find Red Rose Launderette and dry cleaning if you need it! You can’t come to the coast and not have Fish & Chips and one of the best St Anne’s has to offer (The Haven) is right around the corner. There is also, a convenience store and pharmacy right there! Everything you need is within walking distance.

Around St Anne’s there are lots of other cafes, restaurants, bars, and pubs, listed above are just our favourites. Have a walk around and if you find somewhere amazing that we haven’t mentioned, let us know!
