  • Contemporary park in a peaceful and scenic north Wales setting
  • In green countryside 20 minutes from the coast at Talacre
  • Local village a couple of minutes’ drive; three pubs within 1.5 miles
The ‘Haulfryn’ in Haulfryn Caravan Park means ‘Sunny Hill’ in Welsh, and while bright weather can’t be guaranteed at this modern site opened in summer 2019, a scenic and peaceful hol is most definitely on the cards. As well as having new facilities – the owners have spent several months getting the site fully shipshape for guests – Haulfryn Caravan Park's also well placed: long walks and excellent pubs are close by and it’s easy to get out and about by car as it’s a five-minute drive from the A55. For those keen on hitting the road to check out the Flintshire and north Wales highlights of countryside and coast, Talacre is 20 minutes’ drive away for bathing at Barkby beach or birdwatching at Hilbre Islands; the resort town of Rhyl is half an hour away and the long, wide North Shore beach of Llandudno is 40 minutes. Heading inland, it’s also 40 minutes to both Wrexham and Chester for city times, and 20 minutes to the fine town of Flint on the River Dee. So that’s the sights sorted… but how about the facilities once you’re back on base? Haulfryn Caravan Park has all the essentials including showers and toilets, disabled facilities, chemical disposal and a drying room. Other amenities are close by too: the local village is a couple of minutes’ drive away, Holywell is 10 minutes and – perhaps most importantly – three pubs are within a mile and a half.

Liked We were greeted by Kirsty who has the most welcoming smile and was so informative about the site and the area. The site is very quiet , immaculately clean and well organised. The toilet/shower block is outstanding , very clean with hot showers. There is a laundry area which we didn't use but looked very modern . We would definitely stay again

Local attractions

Along with beaches, Flintshire and its surrounds have their fair share of top towns and trekking: head to Holywell – known as the Lourdes of Wales for its St Winifrede’s Well shrine and chapel – to see sights like Basingwerk Abbey’s ruins or to wander through Greenfield Valley Heritage Park. The town of Mold, also 10 minutes’ drive, is your spot for the Grade I-listed St Mary’s Church and a motte and bailey castle. Hike across the limestone cliffs of Bryn Alyn here or amble over to Prestatyn, the seaside town leading to the start of Offa’s Dyke Path (20 minutes away), for saunters on a section of this 177-mile-long trail. If you’re wanting to seriously work those legs, the highest peak in Wales is at Snowdonia National Park 45 minutes’ drive away. But not to worry if you’re already too shattered after all the other strolls: a train’s on hand to whisk you straight up to the top.
