Why stay here ...

Wirral is a peninsula of great natural beauty, and the Wirral Country Park Club Campsite is set right in the midst of some of its loveliest landscapes with wonderful sea views. Located in a country park of 2,000 acres of unspoilt nature, the caravan park is made up of several pitching areas attractively separated by trees and shrubs. Some pitches overlook the Dee Estuary, which is one of many ideal places for scenic walks. There are lots of lovely wooded areas on site and plenty of bird life to observe.

Wirral Country Park Club Campsite puts you within easy reach of a wealth of fun activities to suit all tastes, whether for sports enthusiasts, young families or those with ultra-relaxed pursuits in mind. You will find the caravan park just perfect for sailing - no less than seven private Sailing Clubs offer temporary and family membership to visitors. Apart from a huge choice of unforgettably scenic walks, the area offers power-boating, water skiing and other water-based sports to enjoy along with several indoor swimming pools, sports and recreation centres and golf courses. One of our Merseyside touring sites, you’ll be conveniently located to visit Liverpool and explore north Wales.

Great Site. Fantastic location

Wirral Country Park Club Campsite
Lovely site, Facilities are a little tired but as with most CAMC sites lovely and clean. This site would benefit from an Elsan Point at the other end of the site as you find there is a queue at the only toilet block to empty cassettes. I found it quite irritating as we arrived to book in around 1.30 people already on site were coming into reception saying they had changed pitches just to get an estuary view this is unfair on the wardens and people arriving that day. There is a lovely coffee shop along the Wirral Way nice flat walk. About 3 mile walk into West Kirby where there a loads of pubs and shops.

Nice site poor member etiquette

Wirral Country Park Club Campsite
Stayed end of May 22 for the first time. Excellent site, peaceful and tranquil. Brilliant for long walks or cycling. Clean but toilets need a refurb. Arrival time is 1pm and like others we timed it wrong arriving around 12.45. Formed an orderly queue around 3 in line to be joind by many others before one o'clock. Yes our mistake but managed well by staff letting us on and paying later to save time. So thanks staff. Problem arose with other members who are selfsh, rude and no idea of etiquette. Whilst queuing in a orderly manner many sent out a scout to view pitches, nothing wrong with that as forward planning and having a couple of pitches in mind is good. Some however, sent partners in on foot to sit on empty pitches to assure they got it. HOW SAD !!!! We had seen two blatantly do this and as one was near us as we pitched, borrowing items from another member to reserve the pitch, it was obvious. They were challenged and made aware how ignorant they were to 1st come 1st aerved rules. Wardens were made aware and although they acknowledged it goes on didn't seem to interested in dealing with it ( to hard to police ) was their attitude. Well its not. Would take 1 warden to be out and about for around 20 mins during arrival time., and these members taking the P**s could then be penalised in some way. Otherwise cracking site and recommend đź‘Ś

A Beautiful Site

Wirral Country Park Club Campsite
Access was easy and on arrival we were told which pitches were probably free which we appreciated. We were lucky to find pitch 79 free, which was a corner pitch and with a partial view of the estuary. Being right next to the facilities was also handy. The facilities were clean but very busy on the mornings. We loved the scenic view here but the site was the least quiet we had stayed on. It wasn’t noisy - just children playing on a caravan site because the weather was nice. But not what we are used to. The walks here were great with the Wirral Way directly opposite the site entrance - it would be handy to have a sign here. There is a handy coffee shop not far from the site but we didn’t get chance to try it. During our stay we walked: along the beach to the sailing club, around the country park, to West Kirby and Hoylake and to Heswall, all directly from the site. On our last night we watched a beautiful sun set from the sailing club.

Will return

Wirral Country Park Club Campsite
1st visit to this site and overall we loved it! Queued to get in but we tried our best to arrive as closely to 1pm as possible. Sadly it was a bit chaotic on entering site initially and mainly due to the site having no waiting area's and the only road around the site wasn't much wider than a single carriageway. Ok if there's a good one-way system in place but not so good if you meet another unit coming the other way. We felt a little rushed to get on a pitch for fear of holding other people up. I think the layout, a mix of avenues and cul de sacs was good but some pitches proximity to the road was very close. Lose one or two pitches to create a better, wider, more aesthetically pleasing and user friendly roadway and maybe even install a pedestrian route from the barrier at reception to the toilet block corner. Pitch sizes were generous and well maintained with no weeds. Views around the site were spectacular. Plenty of walks from site and easy route onto beach from the sailing club 5 minutes walk from site entrance. Facilities block was clean but dated. Fish and chips Tuesday night were grand. We saw lots of wildlife on and off site. Planes taking off or coming into Liverpool airport were very visible above the site. We will visit again but will aim to arrive midweek probably to avoid weekend pitching chaos. The wardens were exemplary. They had a late evening walk around and were very approachable at all times.

Local to me but could be anywhere

Wirral Country Park Club Campsite
Local to me but love to visit even though I pass the site most days when walking my dogs. Stayed from the 19th to 22nd and took grass pitch 23, couldn’t have been more happier with this as its well protected from the wind and still get a good amount of sun. I have never been on a site, ever, that was this quite particularly over a week end, you could hear a pin drop, not sure why but it’s was mainly couples. The wardens were super friendly and ware doing a great job in keeping the site to a standard we all expect, well done guys you are an asset to the club. Looking forward to my next stay. For those that have never been, this site is a must and the Wirral will welcome you with open arms. Perfect for cycling and walking with the Wirral way at the site entrance, West Kirby and New Brighton just down the road. Chester and Liverpool with its free museums and waterfront a short drive away. Happing caravaning.
