Okay in Blackpool you have The Castle, but really the Grosvenor is the one you want to play at

In Liverpool, Leo's is very good, overlooking the Mersey, Grosvenor also has a card room, but it is dreadful, don't go there. The River is a card club, it is new and I havent been there, but it has a solid reputation already.

Bolton Grosvenor is again brand new and apparently very nice, but I can't comment personally

Finally
Manchester which only has two poker rooms, the fairly new Circus and the tired looking Grosvenor out in Salford.

As they all tend to change tournament schedules and cash games can be hit or miss, I would suggest you phone ahead to see what they offer on the days you intend being there.
For me, Blackpool is the best bet as the Grosvenor is one of the best cardrooms in the country, and you've tons of other stuff to do, however they are undergoing a refurb and card room capacity will be down for the next few weeks.
Otherwise, Liverpool Leo's is very good, and a lot of beginners/very bad players there, and apparently the Scouse nightlife is very good, never been brave enough to try it myself though
