Hotels in Cleveleys
One of the best things about staying in Cleveleys is its location. You can be close to the beach, promenade, shops, cafés and restaurants, while still being within easy reach of Blackpool, Fleetwood and the wider Fylde Coast. The famous Blackpool tramway runs along the coast, making it easy to explore without having to take the car.
Cleveleys accommodation tends to have a more personal and homely feel than the large resort hotels you will find in Blackpool. There are smaller, family-run establishments where a warm Lancashire welcome is part of the experience. You can also find modern apartments and holiday accommodation if you prefer the flexibility of having your own kitchen and living space.
Visit Fylde Coast Recommends…
The Briardene Hotel & Restaurant is one of the premier accommodation choices in the area. Family-run for generations, this three-star hotel gets fantastic reviews. It’s ideal for anyone looking for quality accommodation paired with an outstanding on-site restaurant. It is a brilliant example of the independent character that makes Cleveleys special – and the one that we’d always recommend.
Close to bus and tram stops, the Briardene is just a short walk to the beach and Cleveleys town centre.


Other Hotel Choices…
The Regal Hotel is right at the heart of Cleveleys town centre. Find it at the centre of Victoria Road West, opposite Iceland. Recently under new management it offers a handy location. It’s just a short walk to the tram stop, bars, restaurants, shops – in fact anything that you need!

There are also smaller B&Bs and guest houses around the area, such as Rushlands at Victoria Road East, heading out to Thornton. These can be a good choice if you prefer somewhere quieter and more personal rather than a larger hotel. And for guests staying slightly further inland, there’s the pretty Marsh Mill windmill to visit.
…or Self Catering
One of the advantages of choosing Cleveleys for your holiday is that you don’t necessarily have to stay in a traditional hotel. The town has a mixture of accommodation styles, from guest houses and small hotels to holiday flats, apartments and other self-catering properties. Current online listings show a sizeable choice of places to stay in and around Cleveleys.
For visitors who want to be right by the sea, there are several self-catering options along the promenades. Highcliffe Holiday Apartments, Garlands and Restlands are on the seafront, with the opportunity to wake up close to the beach and enjoy the seafront right outside.
There’s also a growing number of self-catering houses and apartments on websites like Airbnb, Sykes Cottages, or Booking.com. A search on Google should find what you want!
Cleveleys Hotels make a great Fylde Coast base!
Stay in Cleveleys and make the seaside part of your holiday, not just somewhere you visit for the day! Whether you’re planning a weekend away, a longer family holiday or simply want to experience the Fylde Coast at a slower pace.
For families, couples, walkers, beach lovers or visitors looking for a relaxing break away from the busier parts of Blackpool, Cleveleys can make an excellent base. You can spend the day exploring the Fylde Coast, enjoy an evening meal in town and then return to somewhere comfortable to relax.
And of course, one of the biggest attractions is the promenade itself. A stay in Cleveleys puts you close to the wide seafront, sandy beach, Jubilee Gardens and the many independent shops, cafés and places to eat around the town centre.
Cleveleys is Accessible
One of the great things about Cleveleys and the Fylde Coast is that it’s very flat. If you’re getting on a bit, have health problems or are pushing a pram or wheelchair, it’s ideal! But it’s also well connected and easy to get around.

Cleveleys is well served by public transport, with a variety of buses and providers coming into the town. There’s a central bus stop at Victoria Road West (near Nutter Road) and the busy bus station near B&M. The Blackpool to Fleetwood tramway runs through the centre of town, with a main stop at Cleveleys Square.
Anyone travelling by car can choose from free on-street parking and pay-and-display locations – at the town centre or seafront.
Cleveleys seafront is also famous for its wide, flat promenade with ramp access to the beach. It’s ideal for mobility scooters, wheelchairs, and pushchairs. The seafront is also part of an official Sustrans cycle route – and well used by cyclists of all ages.
And for dog owners, it’s a very dog-friendly town. The Briardene Hotel is happy to welcome your four legged friend, as are many shops and cafes. Just note that while dogs are welcome year-round on the promenade, seasonal beach bans apply in central areas between May and September.
A Year-Round Destination
Staying in Cleveleys allows you to enjoy the seaside at your own pace. It has bags of year-round appeal, for a weekend trip or a family holiday. Book an autumn break during the Blackpool Illuminations – they extend to Bispham and Cleveleys is also brighter than ever during the festive season!
When other seaside towns are quiet and out-of-season, it’s always lively in Cleveleys. Always busier on sunny days, it’s a popular place all through the year.
Other Accommodation in Blackpool
The bright lights of Blackpool are just a short tram ride or drive along the seafront. There’s plenty of accommodation to choose from, at the quieter Bispham and North Shore end or closer to the centre.
