There are toilets in the visitor center, but this is shut and I am not sure whether it is due to the virus or it has been closed down. There are also toilets in the cafe at the entrance to the car park, but again it was closed due to the virus, hopefully to be reopened in the near future. On the road leading down to the car parks and cliffs, there is also a farm shop. I think this has a cafe and no doubt toilets, but due to the virus this too will be closed at present. The nearest pub, when they are open is The Cottage Loaf on the main road by the roundabout.

Hire a horse

I haven't but you could. However, up in the park area by the car parking there are purpose built brick bbq 's and seating areas around for families/ groups . Perfect area for a team bbq.

The beach itself is not but the park area is.

Yes there were many people with dogs - enjoy your walk such a nice place

This is a footpath which starts near the top of Station Road next to Thurstaston Church. It is signposted to Old field Farm. As you walk along it there is a footpath marked on the right. Take this. The footpath winds down through a wooded valley with a stream and a small waterfall. This is known as the Dungeon. It gets its name from the word Dunge or Denge which is old English for land by the Marsh. When you get to the bottom of the path you turn right (Wirral Way) and you are about half a mile from the Visitors Centre at the bottom of Station Road. Hope this helps.
