  • Spacious touring pitches at a quiet Flintshire farm site
  • Chester and the North Wales coast both 20 minutes' drive away
  • Village less than a mile away for a shop, café and two pubs
Fancy some Flintshire fresh air, with the chance to mix your countryside days up with city and coast outings too? Set off to Sandy Lane Farm, home to a spacious touring site just outside the little village of Higher Kinnerton. This location, almost on the Wales/England border, is a nicely rural one, with a peaceful atmosphere on site but easy access to the village (less than a mile away) for a shop, a café, a post office and a couple of pubs. Mold and Wrexham are both about 20 minutes’ drive away on the Welsh side of the border, but the big urban day out around here is Chester, over in England but also about 20 minutes’ drive away. The surrounding countryside offers up all sorts of outdoor activities, including walks, watersports and highly scenic games of golf, and there's also the option of getting up to the coast for seaside walks and beach days. In between all these outings, you’ll be staying at a quiet dog-friendly site with spacious pitches and access to essential facilities including toilets, showers, a chemical disposal point and picnic tables for your outdoor meals.

What customers say

A small, peaceful farm campsite, loved for generous pitches, quiet setting & friendly owners. Enjoy lovely views, country air, and easy strolls to pubs/shops. Basic, dated unisex loo/shower noted, but good value for exploring Chester & North Wales.

Local attractions

Being only a few miles from Chester (20 minutes’ drive) brings with it all sorts of excellent options for days out, including city walks around the cathedral and city walls (the oldest and most complete in Britain and then the chance to see it all in brightly coloured miniature at Chester in Lego. A little way outside the city centre are Chester Racecourse, Designer Outlet Cheshire Oaks and the popular Chester Zoo. Back out in the countryside, there are plenty of great places for walks, including Alyn Waters Country Park (15 minutes) or Nercwys Forest (25 minutes), and some fun activities like axe throwing, paddleboarding and art workshops at Park in the Past (10 minutes). Rack and Ruin Alpacas (20 minutes) is another lovely local spot, offering the chance to take a woolly friend for a walk. The North Wales coast isn’t far off, either, so you might like to head over there for a day at the beach in Rhyl (40 minutes), stopping off at waterside Flint Castle (20 minutes) on the way.
