Hotels Lancaster England Cheap Lancaster Hotels Guide
Lancaster is located within a few miles of the Irish Sea coast on the Western border of Lancashire. This is the historic city from which the county gets its name. It has a long history of settlement going back to the Roman times. The original Roman fortification is now where Lancaster Castle stands. This is the most visited attraction in the city for tourists and is well preserved. Tours of the castle take place regularly all year round. They are well worth the time. For example the Old Cells, Hadrian's Tower and Shire Hall all have a great story to be told by your guide. The House of Lancaster's emblem is the red rose. Its history is well documented as is its rivalry with the House of York. This exploded in a civil war called the war of the roses. This power struggle was dramatised in many of William Shakespeare's plays.
