We visit Wirral generally for weekend breaks and find it very suitable for couples seeking a mixture of rest and exploration of the country park and estuary foreshore. There are good facilities for pre teen children but we have to date avoided school holidays so it may well be a lot more hectic at such times.  Terrific Wardens who work hard to keep the site to the high standard expected. Good shopping is available within ten minutes making it suitable for last minute, subject to availability, breaks with little preparation.
