Among the holiday cottages Lancashire has to offer is this delightful cottage close to Morecambe Bay. If you enjoy walking, a real 'must-do' is the exhilarating 8-mile Cross Bay Walk to Grange-over-Sands, led by Cedric Robinson the official Queen's Guide to the Sands since 1963. For almost half a century, he has guided countless groups of people over a safe path across the potentially treacherous Morecambe Bay - and he has done it for a 'salary' of just £15 a year. Morecambe Bay is incredibly dangerous and this walk should not be undertaken alone. The way the sea twists and turns into the Bay changes each year and so do the dangers. Not only could you find yourself in deep water but there is quicksand. Reassuringly Cedric says: "I can read the sands like others can read a newspaper". The guided walks take place between May and September each year and the times vary depending on the tides.
