Advantages: Great day out, huge savings on high street items

Disadvantages: Not as enjoyable if it's raining

My husband and I decided to go to Blackpool for the weekend and before coming home on the Sunday we thought we'd have a run onto Freeport Outlet Shopping Village at Fleetwood. I have been once before but it must have been about ten years ago. It only took us about 10 minutes to drive from Blackpool to Freeport and it was signposted and easy to find by going straight along the promenade.

If you're looking for a real bargain with up to 50% off high street prices this is the place to go. There are around 50 shops and there's something for everyone. Shops include Next Clearance, Marks and Spencer's Outlet, Claire's Accessories, Reebok, Cadbury and Thorntons, Costa Coffee, a food court, a lovely café, a jewellery store, perfume store and a home store plus many more.

We came back with some items of luxury including curtains down from £135 to £30 and luxurious pillows at a fraction of the original cost. It is a lovely day out, particularly in the summer months as it is open air and situated next to a marina it's such a tranquil place to just sit with a coffee. There's also something for the kids with an outdoor play area and a soft indoor play area.

It's open Monday - Sunday 10am-6pm and Thursdays open until 8pm. We really enjoyed our day at Freeport and were blessed with gorgeous weather. We'll definitely be going back.

Summary: Great day out, something for everyone
