  • Peaceful site near Llangollen Canal and Pontcysyllte Aqueduct
  • A 20-minute walk to Llangollen, 30 minutes to Castell Dinas Brân
  • Rural site with showers and electric hook up in six acres of woodland
Plonk yourself down and prepare to unwind on this pretty patch of land at the foot of the ruined Castell Dinas Brân, right next to the River Dee, in Denbighshire’s Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Llandyn Holiday Park is a small rural site with direct access to Llangollen Canal and close to the gorgeous Pontcysyllte Aqueduct too. This six-acre wooded spot has plenty of quiet corners, yet is only a five-minute drive from the town of Llangollen, famous for its International Music Eisteddfod in July and packed with indie shops, pubs and tea shops. The town is also a base for hill walking and river-based activities like whitewater rafting, tubing and paddleboarding. The canal towpath is part of the National Cycle Network’s Route 85, and one way to cruise down the canal is by horse-drawn barge. Within a half-hour drive, there are stately mansions or medieval castles waiting to be explored too. As well as spectacular views back at base, all pitches have access to chemical loos and shower facilities, electric and water hook up. Here, you’re free to bring along a barbecue for outdoor dining in warm weather or alternatively pick up a range of takeaways from Llangollen.

All-weather fully-serviced gravel pitch (premium)

Liked: Terrific site within walking distance to Llangollen. Good clean and warm facilities. Staff were not intrusive. Great location and views. Bus stops at main road to Llangollen or Wrexham. Will definitely be back.

Disliked: Could do with some coat hooks in the facilities but just a minor issue!

All-weather fully-serviced gravel pitch (premium)

Liked: Brilliant peaceful site. Fully serviced gravel pitches with electric hook up and water. Toilets and showers were spotless and nice and warm. Short walk to town, lovely views and a great stop if you want to do parkrun as it goes right past. Dog friendly. Milk machine for fresh milk from the farm. Good walking on the canal or up to Castel Dinas Bran.

Disliked: It might get busy in the showers in full season as only 3 in the ladies

All-weather fully-serviced gravel pitch (premium)

Liked: Seems about as good as it gets as I am new to this. Facilities very modern clean and warm. Good size pitches for motor homes and campervans and nice and flat.

Disliked: Not so much a dislike but it is located no to far off a road that did result in a bit of occasional traffic noise, more on a mid-day morning but for me no biggie.

Local attractions

With direct access to the Llangollen Canal and Castell Dinas Brân 30 minutes’ walk away, a peaceful stroll from Llandyn Holiday Park will get you far. More cool locations can be tracked down a short drive away – Plas Newydd Historic House & Gardens and Llangollen Railway Station (both five minutes' drive) are two such places, the second being home to a heritage railway that’s as close to a 14th-century rail station as you’ll get nowadays. If it’s the historic stuff that you like, then Chirk Castle (20 minutes) is just as impressive as it is primed for adventure – with 480 acres of parkland surrounding the fortress, you’ll be set for a good wander there. Erdigg Hall (25 minutes) has more gorgeous parkland walks and a huge collection of historic items. Another great adventure is in sight – taking a canal boat (or a stroll) across the top of the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct (10 minutes). If you’re looking for activities a little closer to the ground instead, visit the local town of Wrexham (20 minutes), play a round at the Vale of Llangollen Golf Club (10 minutes) or head to the city for Chester Zoo (40 minutes).
