Rings film trilogy. A must for J.R.R Tolkien and Peter Jackson fans.

The Newlands welcomes smokers but please remember 'always extinguish your cigarette before retiring for the night or leaving your room and NEVER smoke in bed'.
* Newlands installs digital 'freeview' - New for 2007 is the addition of digital TV (with built in freeview) in all rooms.
* Newlands open a further two en suite rooms. The Newlands hotel have added a third en suite family room and a 'no smoking' double en-suite room (complete with four poster bed!). We would like to say a big 'thank you' to 'the En-suite Bathroom Company Ltd. for the great job done.
* Newlands receives prestigious environmental award. Phil & heather attended the 'Green Tourism' award ceremony in June 2005 to be presented with a plaque and certificate for the successful implementation of their environmental policy.

The Newlands Hotel is one of the most popular small hotels in Blackpool. Many of our guests return time and time again and during their stay make many friends. At the request of one of our guests, we have created a 'Yahoo group' so that friends can keep in touch, let each other know when they will be returning and share other information, pictures & links. There's even a Newlands Hotel 'rogues' gallery - are you in it?
