London Southend Airport is a brilliant option for European short-haul flights, and Lancaster is one of England's finest and most underrated historic cities. Lancaster Castle (LA1 1YJ, Castle Hill) has Norman origins dating to c.1094 under William II; the Shire Hall is open for tours; a Crown Court still sits here; the former prison (closed 2011) can be explored on guided tours. The castle stands on the hilltop with the Lancaster Priory (LA1 1YZ, Church of St Mary) alongside it — a church with Saxon foundations, a Norman doorway, and carved medieval choir stalls. The Ashton Memorial (LA1 3JT, Williamson Park) is a Grade I-listed 1909 Baroque folly commissioned by Lord Ashton — nicknamed the "Taj Mahal of the North", it sits at the summit of Williamson Park with views to Morecambe Bay and the Lake District. The Lancaster Maritime Museum (LA1 1RB, Custom House, St George's Quay) tells the story of Lancaster's 18th-century role as a significant port in the tobacco and Caribbean trade. Lancaster University (LA1 4YW, Bailrigg) is a campus university 3 miles south of the city centre — note that the university is in the Bailrigg LA1 4 area, not the city centre LA1 1 postcodes; always specify which. Lancaster railway station (LA1 1SL, Station Road) is on the West Coast Main Line; Avanti West Coast to London Euston takes approximately 2h30m–3h. Nearby: Morecambe (LA4, 3 miles west; Eric Morecambe statue, Midland Hotel Art Deco, Morecambe Bay with cockles and shrimps), Carnforth (LA5, 7 miles north; Brief Encounter station, the Carnforth Film Studio heritage site), Kendal (LA9, 12 miles northeast), Barrow-in-Furness (LA14, 25 miles northwest), Fleetwood (FY7, 20 miles south).

Real reviews from customers who've used our Southend Airport taxi service.
starstarstarstarstar
"Lancaster Castle visit from Rayleigh. Flew easyJet from Southend to Amsterdam and came back for a weekend in Lancaster. Saloon from Southend arrivals, driver A13, M25, M1, M6 J33, A6 into Lancaster, dropped at Castle Hill LA1 1YJ in four hours twenty-four minutes. He knew Castle Hill is approached from Market Street and not directly from the M6. We walked straight into the castle tour from where he dropped us. Then walked to the Priory next door. In the evening we could see the Ashton Memorial lit up from the castle terrace. Avanti from Euston is about two and a half hours but with the cross-London journey from Liverpool Street and the taxi from Lancaster station uphill to Castle Hill this is actually very competitive."

"Lancaster University student from Southend-on-Sea. I fly Ryanair from Southend to Faro each summer. Estate car from Southend arrivals, driver M25, M1, M6 J33, A6, then south out of the city to the Bailrigg campus LA1 4YW, dropped at my college entrance in four hours thirty-one minutes. He knew Lancaster University is three miles south of the city on the A6 and not in the city centre — previous drivers from other companies have gone to the wrong place. Avanti from Euston to Lancaster station then a bus or taxi to Bailrigg is about the same time but much more stress with luggage. This is door to door with no changes."

"Ashton Memorial and Morecambe trip from Leigh-on-Sea. Family of four flew easyJet from Southend to Malaga, came back and headed straight to Lancashire for a week. MPV six-seater from Southend arrivals, driver M25, M1, M6 J33, A6 to Lancaster, then A589 to Morecambe LA4, dropped at the Midland Hotel in four hours forty-five minutes including the Morecambe leg. He knew both Williamson Park for the Ashton Memorial and the Morecambe seafront promenade for the Eric Morecambe statue. We visited the castle and priory the next morning. Four of us with a week of luggage at £160 for the MPV is outstanding value. We came back the same way the following Sunday."
