PARKING
There is plenty of FREE parking here at Brimstage Farm. As you turn into Brimstage Hall & Courtyard off the main road, follow the track straight ahead until you see our big parking sign! You can park in our field all day. Please note there is no shade in the field so please do not leave your furry 4 legged friends in your car.
DIRECTIONS
From J4 of the M53, follow the signs towards Heswall (A5137). The turning into Brimstage Farm is approx. 1 mile along the ‘long & winding road’ on your left hand side.
From Heswall/Chester, head towards the Gayton roundabout (you will see the Glegg Arms, a Shell Garage & the Devon Doorway on this roundabout).
Take the A551 exit & IMMEDIATELY take a right fork turn onto the A5137. Follow this road for approx. 3 miles. The turning into Brimstage Farm is on your right hand side.

FAQ’S
Do I have to book online?
No! The online bookings help us to manage numbers & tickets are available to buy on the door but do cost a little more so you are better booking online if you can.
-
Is your site accessible for wheelchair users?
Our actual main site has gravel pathways that are wheelchair friendly. The tipis also have a sloped ramp that means they can be accessed by a wheelchair user, as can the play barn & the ice cream parlour.
The maze itself is created within a large field. If the weather remains incredibly dry, the pathways within the maze can become wheelchair friendly but generally, the paths can be muddy.
Also, due to the closure of 'The Mouse' here at Brimstage, the disabled toilets have not yet been re-opened so we are VERY sorry to say that we have no disabled toilets. This is something we will do our very best to rectify during the season.
-
I don't want to go in the maze so why do I need to buy a ticket?
The entrance ticket covers all activities on site, many of which are suitable for all ages including the maze, crazy golf, jumping pillows & much more. Everyone on site needs a valid ticket (children aged 2 or under are free).
-
Can I just pay for the kids and I'll come back later?
Nice try! Under 16s must be supervised by a responsible adult at all times including (& especially in the maze itself).
-
Can I bring a picnic?
You can but we’d totally recommend trying the delicious food available at our new Farmhouse Kitchen. You are not able to bring a picnic into our tipis unfortunately but we do have a designated picnic area with picnic sheds should the weather not be on your side!
-
Can I bring my dog?
As much as we adore dogs ourselves, due to popular demand we remain a dog-free site. Our car park has very little shade so it really is best if you leave your furry friend at home.
-
Can you donate a raffle prize to my school, football club, dance troupe, fundraiser etc?
Absolutely! We support many local groups & charities. If you would like a voucher for a raffle, please email info@brimstagefarm.co.uk
