  • Peaceful site half a mile from the A55 and 20 minutes' drive from Rhyl
  • Near a National Landscape; a 45-minute drive from Eryri National Park
  • Five and a half acres with modern amenities and tourist information
Did you know that - thanks to the Diamond Jubilee of good Queen Lilibet - that UK got three brand new cities in 2012? One of the newbies, St Asaph in Denbighshire, is home to just three thousand people. If you’re curious about this tiny gem, come to Penisar Mynydd Caravan Park, where you’ll be perfectly placed to join in any right royal knees-up that might still be going on in St Asaph, and to visit the classic Welsh coastal resorts of Prestatyn and Rhyl. Penisar Mynydd Caravan Park is a peaceful rural site with well-kept pitches and with amenities kept to high standards by the friendly helpful team.There’s a great range of tourist information available on site to help you make the most of the local area. You’ll find a handful of shops, including a convenience store, butcher and chemist in the nearby village of Dyserth (don’t miss out on a stop at the stunning Dyserth waterfalls while you’re there).

What customers say

This well-maintained site is praised for its beautiful rural location, friendly and helpful owners, and immaculately clean facilities. Pitches are described as spacious and level. Its proximity to the A55 makes it ideal for exploring North Wales. Occasional noise from nearby farms or inconsiderate campers is noted, and some guests mention limited on-site amenities.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (super)

Liked Very clean and well maintained site. The owner is very friendly and always gave a smile. Toilet and shower block was nice and clean and it had facilities to wash your dishes next to them. The waste master area was nice and smart in a dry area. We had a super pitch and this was a very decent size where you had your own tap for each pitch. We would definitely recommend this place and would definitely visit again in the future.

Disliked Nothing. I could not fault the place at all.

Liked Quiet peaceful site. Shower block and toilets absolutely spotless and smell lovely. Showers lovely and warm. We would of liked to walk into Dyserth but unfortunately the weather wasn't on our side, so spent the weekend cosy and warm in the van. Absolutely lovely we look forward to returning soon🥰.

Disliked Nothing everything lovely.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review!

We're so pleased you enjoyed the peace and quiet of the site and found our shower and toilet facilities spotless, fresh and lovely and warm. It's always nice to hear that our efforts to keep everything clean are appreciated.

It's a shame the weather wasn't on your side for a walk into Dyserth, but sometimes there's nothing better than being cosy and warm in the caravan, enjoying a peaceful weekend away!

Hopefully the sunshine will make an appearance on your next visit so you can get out and explore the lovely surrounding area.

Thank you again for staying with us, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!

Best wishes,

Liked A really warm welcome on arrival and a lovely smell of frying bacon/sausage from the on site butty van situated just inside the entrance to the site. The site is set in lovely countryside and very quiet, just how we like it. The shower/toilet facilities were spotless and smelt lovely too. All in all a lovely stay.

From the manager: Thank you for such a lovely review! We're really pleased you enjoyed the warm welcome and peaceful countryside setting here at Penisar Mynydd.

There's certainly nothing quite like the smell of freshly cooked bacon and sausages in the morning! We're glad our little butty van made a good first impression too.

It's also wonderful to hear that you found our shower and toilet facilities spotless and fresh. Our team works hard to keep them that way, so your comments are very much appreciated.

Thank you again for staying with us. We hope to welcome you back for another relaxing break soon!

Best wishes,

Local attractions

For families, the safe sandy beaches, funfairs and plentiful tourist attractions of Rhyl and Prestatyn – just four miles away – will no doubt be top of the list. The attractive seaside resorts of Llandudno and Colwyn Bay are also within an easy drive. Fishing fans can try the trout farm ten minutes up the road from Penisar Mynydd Caravan Park, or head into St Asaph to fish the River Elwy; walkers can saunter through a superb selection of scenery, including nearby Offa’s Dyke, or drive to Snowdonia National Park and hike the mountains and lakes; and golfers will also find that this area suits them to a tee, with a huge choice of courses including Caerwys, Meliden, Rhuddlan, Rhyl, Holywell and Prestatyn. Other top picks for sightseeing include the village of Betws-Y-Coed and the neighbouring Swallow Falls; the imposing remains of Rhuddlan Castle; and seventeenth century Bodrhyddan Hall, where a 3,000-year-old mummy lurks among the armour and period furniture…
