A Merseyside beauty spot has been named in a list of the country's top beaches.
Ainsdale beach was ranked as one of the UK's top 20 beaches by travel company HomeToGo. As the summer draws closer and the days get longer people will be looking ahead to what they're going to be doing this summer.
HomeToGo compiled a list of the best beaches, ranking each on the median price per night for nearby holiday accommodation, visitor rating and water quality. While Sefton's coastline boasts a number of popular beaches, it's Ainsdale that came out top.
