YES!! We searched far and wide for a location that has good transport links.
Hawarden is a short distance away from Chester train station with direct trains from London Euston, Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham, Crewe, Cardiff, Glasgow and Edinburgh. This means great links from Liverpool and Manchester airports too.
Better still the Number 4 or 4x bus leaves every 20 mins and will take you from the train station to the venue gates! How’s that for convenience?
Yes, we are all adults, and a great part of any conference is sharing stories around the fire with a tipple of choice.
