Over the water
Birkenhead faces the city across the river, about 10 minutes by ferry or a short hop on Merseyrail's Wirral Line, which also runs to Chester and West Kirby. Townhouse, a swing, kink and LGBTQ+ club on Union Street in Birkenhead, posts its programme online: check its own site for current nights.
Up the coast
Southport is about 17 miles north on Merseyrail's Northern Line, so the city centre works as a meeting point for both ends of the line.
Into town, or out of it
Lime Street, Liverpool Central, Moorfields and James Street put the centre a short walk away, and the M62, M53, M57 and M58 bring drivers in. Manchester is about an hour by train, and our page on swingers in Manchester covers the scene there.
