  • Family-run rural Flintshire farm site 10 minutes' drive from Mold
  • Moel Famau 10 minutes' drive away; 35 minutes to Chester or the coast
  • Well-kept facilities including play areas and dog exercise area
When a business has been running since 1962, you know they have to be doing something right. Or, in the case of Fron Farm Caravan and Camping Park, quite a lot of things… The Roberts family have been running this Flintshire site for several decades now, and over that time it’s developed into a popular spot for a North Wales holiday. It helps that the location is an excellent one, of course, in a rural area with lovely views of the mountains of the Clwydian Range, and the lively market town of Mold 10 minutes’ drive away. Plenty more attractions are close by, too, in an area that can rightly be described as having something for everyone. Moel Famau is 10 minutes’ drive away for hardcore hikers, with country parks also on hand for gentler walks. Castles, a steam railway and other heritage attractions are scattered around, and you can also spend the day on a sandy beach or head to the likes of Liverpool or Chester for a city day. Back at base, a lot of effort has gone into getting the facilities just right. The farm has a reception and shop area, two modern toilet and shower blocks (with disabled facilities) and a couple of laundry rooms with coin-operated machines. There’s also takeaway food available at the weekends in peak season. On top of all that, there are two play areas and plenty of green space for the kids to run around, and they’ll be able to see animals around the farm. Dogs are welcome and have their own exercise area to scamper about in.

What customers say

This is a well-maintained and very clean campsite with friendly, helpful staff. Visitors praise the spacious pitches, excellent facilities including modern shower blocks, and the on-site farm animals which are a hit with children. Good for families, with play areas and entertainment options. Some report occasional noise and infrequent toilet cleaning during peak times.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Was a lovely family atmosphere, plenty of space, the farm was great, Donkey fields were amazing, lots of support, owners really helpful - even after shop closed, reopened it for us to buy some extras.

Unfortunately we couldn’t stay overnight as our daughter fell ill but our friends did stay and loved it and said it was their best night sleep since starting to camp.

Disliked Farm wasn’t labeled as to which way the animals where as they were on different sides of the campsite but we were directed fine and that is the only downside I could think of!

Liked Lovely site with great facilities. Everywhere was clean and tidy. Loved the extras like animals, pizza and breakfasts available.

Disliked A little bit too noisy for me in the evenings. Im not saying this as a complaint as it was a very family friendly site, we just prefer it a bit quieter at night

Electric grass pitch

Liked Pitch size was brilliant, views amazing, showers clean and functional, services on site were very good (Friday pizza, Sat/Sun breakfast, coffee van, great farm shop).

Disliked Some slightly rowdy late night fellow campers.. nothing too bad, and just inconsiderate. Don’t blame anyone from the site, just one of those things.

Shaun E. 1 review

Electric grass pitch

Liked The area is great for lovely views of the surrounding area. Sun sets are spectacular in the summer. It’s a very safe place for families with two small parks and a field for sports. Great for dogs too. With it being a working farm you have a few animals to go and see and dead if you want to. Different food vans come on site at the weekend if you don’t fancying cooking.

Disliked Third time there and noticed they are expanding the site. Although the static homes are really nice, I hope they don’t over develop it as it a lovely, fairly quiet camp to come too.

Local attractions

Take a hike – there are some great routes to try out around here, including the trail up Moel Famau, the highest summit in the Clwydian Range (10 minutes’ drive) and sections of the Offa’s Dyke Path, which runs nearby. For something a little gentler, head to the limestone landscapes of Loggerheads Country Park (15 minutes) or walk to a waterfall and castle ruins at Wepre Park (20 minutes). For more dips into the area’s history, wander around Flint Castle (20 minutes) and learn about Victorian prison life at Ruthin Gaol Museum (25 minutes). Chester (35 minutes), with its cathedral, city walls and half-timbered buildings, and Llangollen (45 minutes), with a steam railway and horse-drawn canal boats, are other good options for a hit of heritage. Change of scenery? Go north-west to Rhyl (35 minutes) for a day on the sandy beach (or at the SC2 waterpark if it’s damp) or north-east to Liverpool (an hour) for football, music, shopping and some excellent free museums.
