CAMPING AT
WIRRAL FOLK FESTIVAL
The campsite is in the extensive grounds of The Whitby Club. As you can see from the photographs the site is self-contained and bordered by woodland on one side. All concerts take place in the main building (on the left) so there is no need to leave the festival site.
Just a five-minute walk along the main road, where local buses run regularly into Ellesmere Port and Chester, you'll find a small supermarket and cash (ATM) facilities.
Toilets and showers are located inside the
building and are
open at 8am.
Portable toilets are located around the
campsite.
A water point is located within easy reach of campers.
It would be useful
to have a torch
handy for use
during the hours
of darkness.
