Leigh Folk
Festival 2008
Travel & Lodging
The nearest railway station to the Festival is Leigh on Sea, which can be reached from London on the Fenchurch St. Line. It is only a short walk from the station to Old Leigh where most of Sunday's events take place.
There are numerous
B&Bs in the area but most of them are situated in Southend and Westcliff on
Sea.
The only accommodation I am aware of in Leigh itself is
The Grand -
