Garstang is a pretty market town situated on the
banks of the River Wyre. It lies in a rural location between the larger
conurbations of Preston to the south and Lancaster to the north. It is
also the gateway to the Forest of Bowland, an area of outstanding
natural beauty. It is easily accessible via the M6 or A6.
Garstang is just a short ride from the Lake
District, coastal Blackpool or historic Lancaster. After a short stroll
along the Lancaster Canal or a hike in the fells you will soon confirm
this is a part of England just too good to be missed.
