The new management of a Morecambe seafront pub and hotel have spoken to Beyond Radio about their plans for the future.
Leanne Doherty and Tracy Huddleston recently took over the tenancy of the Royal Hotel and Bar on Marine Road Central.
They previously worked together at the George pub in Torrisholme, where they became friends.
Tracy then took some time off from the pub trade but said "I missed it too much" so when she decided to take over the Royal, she asked Leanne to run it with her.
They have plans to install a gin and rum bar upstairs, overlooking Morecambe Bay, and will be creating pool and darts teams, with a quiz night on Thursdays.

"The Royal will still carry on with live music at the weekends downstairs but upstairs in the dining room there will be a more relaxed, chilled atmosphere with sharing boards, various gins and rums, and a gorgeous view," said Tracy.
"It will be an all-week venue where you can come, relax, eat, have a game and pool, with live sport on (TV), making it a nice, friendly, welcoming local pub."
