Some simple helpful info for walkers (things the site wardens didn't tell us)
1) The nearest working bus stops are a 45 minute uphill walk from the site and are located in Irby. Forget the 88a these are few and only run early and late. The 88 is supposed to be more regular but we never saw or used it. The 471 goes to Liverpool but takes about 1.5 hours.
2) The nearest train service runs from West Kirby. This is 2.7 miles from the site, reached by walking the old railway path on the Wirral Way. Excellent train service running about every 20 minutes all day. we are quite fit and it took 1 hour to reach West Kirby station on foot. The railway station is immediately adjacent to your Wirral Path exit point in West Kirby. (As is a rather good Wetherspoons!)Do not take the sea front option to West Kirby beach if you are in a hurry (Lovely to walk but longer).
3)There are two accesses to the beach from the site and both are about 5 minutes walk. Turn either right OR left on the ROAD outside the site.
4)Thurmanstan Information Centre is also 5 minutes walk from the site.
