Enjoy a walk, jog, scoot or bike ride along the long, traffic-free promenade, all the way into Morecombe, where you can sample some wonderful food and drink at the Midland Hotel, admire the views and maybe even reach the Happy Mount Park, which is just over four miles away along the lovely coastline. In Heysham, you will also find your nearest conveniences including a shop and a pub where you can stock up on the essentials or indulge a cold beverage. From your doorstep, you can also spend the day walking the trails of the Heysham Nature Reserve, or alternatively head into the city of Lancaster, home to the Lancaster Maritime Museum, Lancaster City Museum, Lancaster Castle, and Williamson Park, in addition to a vast array of shopping and eating opportunities. However you choose to while away the days in this beautiful seaside village, do it from the charming home of Tilly’s Place.
Heysham is a charming coastal village located not far from the cities of Lancaster and Morecambe. This community, which has a variety of stores, bars, cafés, and small businesses, is surrounded by woodland, open grassland, and sandy beaches and offers something to please all tourists. Spend some time at the Heysham Heritage Centre to brush up on local history, or take a ferry to the Isle of Man if you're feeling particularly daring. The larger town of Morecambe, where you'll find additional services and attractions including the Eric Morecambe Statue and The Stone Jetty, is within striking distance. A little further away lies the city of Lancaster, which has four museums, a mediaeval castle, and Williamson Park, where free summer concerts are frequently held.

The cottage is lovely decorated and equipped with everything you can possibly wish for. The spacious garden comes in handy when the sun shines. We enjoyed wonderful walks around the bay and if you are more interested in physics there is even a nuclear power plant to visit (the guided tour needs to be booked well in advance). We can recommend Tillyâs Place without reservation!

Clean, comfortable, quiet and great location for shops, pubs and beach. If I had to say anything negative it would be that there was a strange smell in the dining room, that there is nowhere to store food in the kitchen (but realised that's not easily solved) and that the garden is not secure for a dog who is at all adventurous (ours escaped within minutes of our arrival so we had to take him out on a lead after that). But these are minor negatives compare with lots and lots of positives and we would certainly consider staying again if the garden was more secure.
