A scenic waterfront area featuring a long, curved promenade that offers stunning views of the Irish Sea and the Wirral Peninsula. The promenade is lined with beautiful gardens, a lake, and a variety of amenities, including cafes, restaurants, and shops. Visitors can enjoy leisurely walks, picnics, and boat rides on the lake, as well as attend events and festivals held throughout the year. The promenade is also home to the iconic New Brighton Lighthouse and the historic Fort Perch Rock, adding to its charm and character.
Nice place to walk all the way up and down. Plenty things to see and do, that will please grown ups and kids for a full day. Best thing to do for a weekend.
Nothing to complain about except Wetherspoons left a mess when they abandoned their project of a new hotel and refurbished restuarant and bar. There is plenty to do lovely walks, restaurants, cafes and bars, theatre, great scenery, clean beaches...the sunsets are to die for. Liverpool can be seen as if it's just a short walk on a clear day, but no it's not that at all but a train or bus journey from the Kings promenade or the New Brighton station...Visited here in June and Sept 2023
Glorious! Fantastic for both cycling and walking; plenty of room for both.
New Brighton has an old seaside town feel to it, popular with walkers, dogs and the occasional fisherman. Marina for rc boats etc. Swimming baths, restaurants and shopping available. Free parking, can get windy and remember to check on the tide if you intend to use the beach.
New Brighton is lovely. Visiting here reminds me of being a kid. It's changed a fair bit over the years. They have added a cinema, shops, restaurants and a hotel. It is a pleasant place to be. You have also got the promenade where you can walk or cycle the Wirral peninsula right round as far as West Kirkby. You have also got the marine lake which is ideal for crab fishing! Opposite and just a bit down the road from all of that, you have got traditional chippys, an old school arcade, kids fun fair sandwiched between a bowling alley/ bar and the theatre. If you venture up from the promenade, you will find a few cosy cafes, bars and quirky independent shops on a more traditional high street. Where the train station is also located. Getting to New Brighton by train about half an hour from Liverpool Lime Street or Central Station on the Wirral line. It is definitely worth a visit! My only complaints are; Fort Perch Rock is mostly closed, and it is now an escape room. There is a cafe there with outside seats, which would be nice in the summer. I would like to have a look around the Fort, though. There used to be a wooden walkway around part of the lake, which was ideal for getting close to the water whilst crab fishing. They have since removed it, though. The whole feeling of New Brighton is that they're trying to drive custom away from the local places by building the hospitality centre and shops right on the front. Like I said, if you venture up into the town, you can find some great little places. Good bit of history, look up New Brighton Tower on Youtube. Also I recommend having a look into the WW2 munitions factory, where there are frequent Ghost Hunts hosted by a man called Paul Mcnulty and Creep Paranormal Investigations.
Haven't been to New Brighton since I was little, there are a good range of shops and the fair/amusement arcades, also public toilets to use, but we went for the walk on the beach, absolutely gorgeous and very clean, our dog also loved it
