The celebrated weekly Thursday market in Garstang has its roots in the 14th century, and every year the town plays host to a popular arts festival and agricultural show, each reflecting the strong sense of community, heritage and history with which the town is blessed. It is perhaps no surprise to discover that, as well as being a ‘Britain in Bloom’ award-winner for many years, Garstang has been declared ‘the world’s first Fairtrade town’, and its bustling high street of independent shops, restaurants, cafés and pubs offers a wealth of choice for shopping, relaxation and entertainment. To the west, the quiet lands of the Fylde and the Lancashire coast are ideal for days out; and just a few miles to the east is the Trough of Bowland, one of England’s secret gems - a landscape of high fells and moorlands, stone-built villages and green river valleys, perfect for exploration by car, bicycle and on foot
