  • Well-kept park by the beach five minutes' drive from Prestatyn
  • A 15-minute drive to Rhyl; 45 minutes to Llandudno or Chester
  • Fishing lake, tea room and play area on site
Now here’s a nifty north Wales holiday spot – St Mary’s Holiday Park is in a handy Denbighshire location next to Gronant Dunes, just outside Prestatyn (and about a mile and a half from the resort’s main beach and golf club). Access via a main road means it’s easy to get in and out even with touring vehicles, and there’s a bus stop just outside for convenient access to public transport (including summertime open-top bus services). Plant yourselves down here for a little while and you’ll be in a prime spot for exploring the north Wales coastline – Rhyl’s close by as well, and days out in Llandudno or Conwy or over on Anglesey are all well within reach. Turning your sights inland might take you for hikes in the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley National Landscape or to the historic streets of Chester. And while the location’s a particularly good one for travelling around, there’s also a fair amount to keep you at the park, including a fishing lake, an outdoor play area and an indoor games room, plus a tea room for refreshments. And if that’s not enough, as a guest at St Mary’s Holiday Park, you are permitted to use the facilities (swimming pool, miniature golf, a restaurant and kids’ activities) at the sister flagship park, Lyons Robin Hood Holiday Park, which is a 10-minute drive away. As a firmly family-friendly park, all the essential facilities are covered too, including a launderette and a bathroom block with showers, toilets and accessible facilities. Family pet need a break too? You’ll be pleased to hear that dogs are welcome at St Mary’s Holiday Park.

Liked Toilets/ showers clean.
Staff friendly
Play area is nice.

I read some reviews about the site being dirty that was not the case for us.

Disliked Nothing except I was disappointed to see the fishing lake was fenced off yet the site advertised there was a lake.
Was looking forward to walking around it.

Very nice site and the staff are very helpful

Power optional grass travel trailer campsite

Liked The scenery was stunning wasn’t too far to the beach bit longer to the shops but in Walking distance

Disliked Had to pick up loads of rubbish around the park area, the border around the park some of it was broken the bench and table we’re a bit wobbly, no swings and the sit on rockers didn’t work well some of the flower pots around the site were broken. All they need is a little bit of work on them, that was before it got busy later in the afternoon, some of the kids are allowed to ride electric bikes too fast and saw a couple of near accidents, also there is a couple of groups of a lot of people on site that were a bit rowdy and kept us awake till around 4.30 in the morning
And the gates were open so I could get it in, it was a bit of a squeeze, the borders around the site as you going in and out where the grass verges were full of rubbish,
So not the best site

Large pitches well maintained…

Local attractions

There’s heaps to do along the north Wales coast – when you’re not hitting taking a walk through Gronant Dunes or hitting the sandy beaches in Prestatyn (five minutes’ drive), Talacre (five minutes) or Rhyl (15 minutes) you could be teeing off at Prestatyn Golf Club (five minutes), meeting marine beasts at SeaQuarium Rhyl (15 minutes) or riding the Rhyl Miniature Railway (20 minutes). Drive a little further west and you can spend the day visiting the imposing Conwy Castle (40 minutes), touring the Great Orme in Llandudno (45 minutes) or crossing the Menai Bridge to Anglesey (an hour). Minor diversions inland en route could take you to Bodnant Garden (40 minutes) or for Eryri/Snowdonia walks from Llanrwst (55 minutes). There are plenty more walks to be had close to the park in the Clwydian Range & Dee Valley National Landscape, perhaps also stopping at St Asaph Cathedral (20 minutes) or Denbigh Castle (35 minutes). Crossing over into England is also a good idea, for a trip to Chester (45 minutes) for its zoo and a circuit of its city walls.
