A popular seaside splash park is up and running as temperatures in the region are set to soar.

The Splash zone, in Lytham St Annes’ Promenade Gardens, is hugely popular with families from Manchester, who often book the sessions as part of a day trip to the area.

It costs £2 for a one-hour session and parents can book online to reserve a slot for each child. There is no charge for accompanying adults.

Bookings can be made online up to 48 hours in advance of the sessions, which run five times a day seven days a week – starting at 10am, 11.15am, 12.30pm, 1.45pm and 3pm. On Thursdays an additional late session run at 4.15pm.
