Worst Rated Seaside - Should You Visit Blackpool?

Holidaymakers don't appear to be too impressed with Blackpool as they have ranked the seaside town among the worst in the country. The resort was named a lowly 79th out of 88 coastal towns, with a score of 58%, which was compiled using 4,300 visitor ratings. They were asked to star-rate a number of criteria to generate an overall destination score - average hotel price, beaches, seafront/piers, food and drink, tourist attractions, scenery, shopping, peace and quality and value for money.

The OTHER Side Of Blackpool 👉

[@mickmcgill5234]

If Blackpool is voted worse seaside resort why does it get about 2 million visitors every year these people that voted Blackpool as the worse probably never been to Blackpool

I went to Blackpool a couple weeks ago and I actually enjoyed it, the beach was lovely and I even did the touristy bit of buy some rock. I live in Bournemouth so it was a nice change and there's loads more to do in Blackpool than Bournemouth

As a Blackpool resident born and bred my heart is really warmed by this video. It has been such a shame to see my town's ratings tank across the board over the last couple decades when we still have many great unique attractions and features each with its own interesting history, some spanning generations. Blackpool still booms when in season and in the height of summer you can barely walk down the length of the promenade without navigating a sea of people which is the best time to come here. We do have our fair share of problems like any other town and some areas are quite run down in need of attention and renovation but that has begun to change in recent years. There are still great things to see farther from the promenade like Bloomfield Stadium, home ground of my beloved team Blackpool FC, the Golf courses up towards the Hospital and within the great and popular Stanley Park also a grade II listing itself which deserves an entire video of its own which would be great to see. There is the historic Windmill that still stands right at the edge of the town off Mereside which you see as you come off from the Motorway. Plus we have such a vibrant and well known night life scene with pubs and clubs all across the town centre. I love Blackpool I have lived here for most of my 26 years and have a plethora of great memories here. To anybody on the fence on visiting here because they have heard bad things or seen bad reviews and ratings I implore you to give it a chance I am sure you will love it as I do and not be disappointed. Safe to say you have earned a new sub from me I look forward to seeing how else you showcase our great town so thank you very much ☺️

I love Blackpool, and I have a real fondness overall for "proper" British seaside towns. My earliest holiday memory is probably going to Blackpool Pontins when I was 3 years old with my grandparents, although all I can really remember is that we bought a big bag of rock, and put it in a drawer in the chalet. When we came back later that evening, several hundred ants were having a feast.

I’m 80 now and spent my first holiday in Blackpool when I was 20,

Chris is totally the energy the world needs!

Blackpool is a typical British seaside resort ! It has everything for a family to have a good time. Some snobby people turn their noses up at the mention of Blackpool, but it is just what you make it and I happen to love it! My late mam also loved it and wished she had visited it much more! She loved the bingo 🤣🤣

[@DangerVille]

I lived in St Annes for most of my life so Blackpool is home to me, it’s not perfect but there’s lots to love. Last year when covid was still a worry, I stayed In the Hilton and had a weekend out to Blackpool and almost saw it from a new tourists perspective, was a weird experience, but surprisingly lovely. Blackpool on a nice sunny day just can’t be beaten.

It looks fantastic , last time I was in Blackpool it was the 80s, British people should be grateful places like this exist , long live the British resorts

[@Roscoe.P.Coldchain]

Blackpool for me always gives me this feeling of our old Victorian heritage..The tower and it’s surrounding building is worth coming for alone in my opinion. I could look round that building for hours..Everyone went to Blackpool on our estate when I was growing up in the 70s and I honestly think people are going to holiday at home more especially as our weather seems to be getting hotter..💟

[@bigzach1000]

I have never been to the UK, but I am a bit of an Anglophile. It amazes me at how clean and tidy the main areas of these pleasure beaches are. I really don't know why Blackpool ranks so low, especially with all of the amazing landmarks there. These videos are great!

[@prettypinkwitchlaura9213]

I just love Blackpool. My favourite place on earth. I married my husband at the wedding chapel and hired a vintage tram instead of wedding cars. He’d proposed at the tower circus. We even had our honeymoon in Blackpool! It’s where I go when my mental health gets overwhelmingly poor too.

[@michaeldowd8422]

I wish you had your own tv show. The amount of work you put in to 'big up' British holiday destinations is fantastic 👍

[@DisneyMarkUK]

Blackpool is literally my favourite place on earth. Fun fact, when the Mirrorball was being refurbished last year I was asked to sign the inside or it and I wrote a nice little message too. Great video as always Tim.

[@onegirlgigging]

As someone who lived there for 40 years you have clearly put the effort in to know the place. You either live there or visit regularly. Well done on a great video. Gynn Slyway was built like that long before my time. From memory I was told it was done to stabalise the cliffs better to allow people to use them safely.

[@brianscales9912]

Love Blackpool. Our number one resort to visit for a holiday in the UK! I have lost count how many holidays we have had in Blackpool. Every holiday in Blackpool was 10/10. ❤👍🙂

[@sjp6839]

I love blackpool, i go several times a year and have done for the last 55 years since i was born. Its changed a lot but it will always be my happy place

[@williamevans9426]

I recall becoming stuck in the cabin lift in the early 1970s as a result of overloading. There were two 'cabins' running in a single shaft so, when our lift became stuck mid-way up, the other cabin was lowered to be alongside our cabin and a side panel in each was opened to allow half our passengers to move across, thereby releasing the mechanism! 'Though I appreciate such things can't be permitted nowadays, it's still a shame that the lift's been unused for so long.

Excellent video Tim.
