Ribby Hall Village
Kirkham, Lancashire
Not boutique, but brilliantly organised for little ones: flumes, soft play, playgrounds and a packed entertainment schedule all included, so you barely need the car. When you do, Blackpool's Sandcastle Waterpark, zoo and tower are twenty minutes away. Upgrade to one of the newer cottages for extra comfort.
