Bidston Windmill — Attraction in Wirral

Have been going to Bidston Hill for over 65 years as a child to adult with children and grandchildren it has always been a lovely place to visit.

And don't miss the opportunity to explore the Bidston Windmill, which opens to visitors on select dates. Consulte with the local council for current opening hours and...

During my walking after a school day there were two little ones tripped over. Personally I enjoy the place a lot and would recommend adults for hiking. If you take little one like me do please pay extra attention not only to the stone road surface but also the plants with spike leaves. There is a lovely farm near the entrance where you can take little one to see various animals like goat, chicken, pig etc and there is a small playing area as well. If you feel like to you can make donation as the farm is run by volunteers (I have...
