Group homestays in Blackpool

We arrange group homestays in Blackpool for schools and youth groups, working with experienced host families across the area. The town is located on the Lancashire coast, in northwest England.

Blackpool is one of Britain’s most famous seaside resorts, located on the Lancashire coast. Known for its iconic Tower, pleasure beach, and illuminations, it has been entertaining visitors since the Victorian era.

The town offers a wealth of family attractions, from traditional seaside amusements to world-class theme park rides. Blackpool’s famous Golden Mile, historic piers, and variety of entertainment venues make it a unique destination for groups.

What group leaders need to know

Every group is quoted individually, because centre, dates and numbers all move the price. The practical arrangements are the same wherever your group stays.

Students stay with host families in twos, threes and fours. Group leaders and other adults travelling with the group can have single rooms if any are free when you book.

We suggest full board: breakfast and dinner at the family’s table, and a packed lunch to take out for the day. Half board, without the packed lunch, is also an option.

A local organiser is at the meeting point each morning and evening. Students are handed over between host families and group leaders with someone responsible present both times.

Airport transfers can be arranged for the whole group by taxi, minibus or coach. Ask for a quotation when you enquire.

Tell us the ages of your students when you enquire, so the quote covers the right arrangements for anyone under 18.

Larger groups pay less per person. Payment terms come with your quote.

Send us your dates, group size and anything the group needs, and we will come back with a quote for Blackpool.
