  • Dog-friendly fly and coarse fishing site with well-stocked lakes
  • A five-minute drive to Llandegla and a mile from the Offa’s Dyke Path
  • Tackle shop, tackle hire, café and family fishing pool
Avid angler? Or just want to have a first go at fishing? Either way, Llandegla Trout and Coarse Fishery in Denbighshire is home to well-stocked pools suitable for pretty much everyone. And that’s really no exaggeration. This family-friendly site is dotted with lakes for all levels: opt for fly fishing in two trout pools stocked with rainbow, brown, tiger and gold trout, or give coarse fishing a go in a couple of bodies of water filled with mirror and common carp, barbel, tench, bream, roach, rudd and chub. There’s also a worm fishing lake and a family fishing area for an informal intro to the sport, plus the on-site tackle shop – with kit to hire – is a handy addition for amateur anglers. Fishing aside, the park’s location a mile from ambles along the Offa's Dyke Path makes it a brill base for mountain bikers and walkers. A bunch of other outdoor activities are also available in the area, including a shooting ground and a horse-riding centre within a five-minute drive. As for sustenance (all that activity is hungry work after all), a café is on site dishing up free-range breakfasts and fresh coffee for the mornings, with other dishes available including fresh and smoked trout sourced from the park. Prefer to rustle up your own grub? Barbecues are permitted on base.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Always clean and tidy, nice hot showers after a day getting cold, wet and muddy on the mountain bike while the partner sits by one of the ponds fishing. Breakfast and food in the cafe is well worth the drive itself.

Shepherd's hut

Liked: well kept fishing lakes

Disliked: paid on arrival for shepherds hut , lady on reception/cafe told us not to put to much wood in as it gets hot very quickly, get to hut absolutely freezing in there , lit the lights burner , sitting with coats on, waited and hour with lights burner on full still freezing, bed felt damp and has an off putting smell , no internet whatsoever, the door didn’t fit the frame there was a gap on the top cold coming through , the whole hut was extremely draughty, went back to reception and told her we couldn’t stay as was to cold no internet and log burner was not sufficient, having just paid, there was no asking if we would like refund or even partial refund , also the kitchen area at the back the kettle was completely covered in grease

Primitive grass and gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked: Scenic, clean and tidy. Pleasant owner, quiet site. Good shower block.

Disliked: Couldn’t find any bins for rubbish. Booked on Pitchup and were told there were no pitches available with electric. On arrival there were plenty of electric pitches available but we hadn’t bothered to take appliances as we thought we couldn’t hook up.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Warm welcome, excellent modern clean facilities which were warm. Cafe food was excellent, we didn't do the fishing but plenty were and had caught fish. Vending machines are a good idea. Plenty of dog friendly walks around site and off site. Will definitely be returning.

Disliked: Would like pitches to be numbered and pitch areas to be defined more clearly.

Local attractions

Hire mountain bikes from an adventure centre a 15-minute walk from the site and soak up the stunning local scenery on a cycle ride. For those who like to fly high, the North Wales Gliding Club is five minutes’ drive away and cantering is to be had from the Cae Hic Livery & Riding Centre (the same distance away). You can also hone your gun skills at the Fauxdegla Shooting Ground (five minutes) or indulge your inner car fanatic at the Llangollen Motor Museum (10 minutes). For quieter times out in nature, lope to the Loggerheads Country Park and wander a wood-covered river valley or make your way to the Nant Mill Visitor Centre’s woodland and waterfall (all 15 minutes). Chuck a couple of structures into the mix with a visit to Dinas Brân’s castle ruins (15 minutes), then peer at the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct (20 minutes), one of Telford’s Industrial Revolution designs. If the kids are in tow, take them to The Crocky Trail adventure park for stints on the slides and rope swings (35 minutes) or check out Chester Zoo’s sizable selection of animals – from aardvarks to zebras – across 51 acres of land (40 minutes).
