Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: The space is enormous, with exceptional views and quiet serenity. Rhian and her family were incredibly kind, helpful, and accommodating. We camped in order to do some stargazing / meteor watching, which was perfect. Loads of lovely other wildlife there, too. Thank you for having us, Plas Dolben!

Liked: Loved everything about this site, not overcrowded it was peaceful with fantastic views. Clean facilities. Excellent friendly host. A short walk to the local pub and bus stop if you wanted to visit Ruthin, we went to the castle and had lunch in the town which was very enjoyable. We will definitely return. Dave and Wendy Roberts

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Lovely owners who were always happy to help. Emptied bins and cleaned toilet/shower daily. Very quiet area with stunning views. I took my 3 & 7 year old daughters and my autistic sister, the environment was great for all of them. We were within hiking distance of Moel Fammau which we managed. Iola the owner of the farm came to check that we got back safe as we were gone for hours on our walk in the Clwydian Range. We will definitely be back. We had dinner at the local pub which is just a five minute walk from the farm.

Local attractions

To make the most of your immediate surrounds, set out on the four-mile heritage walking route that passes through the farm, taking in abandoned farmhouses, St Cynhafal's church and the farm’s own medieval holy well. You’re also a 20-minute walk from the Offa’s Dyke Path, and an hour or so from the top of Moel Famau. For other outdoorsy pursuits, take your wheels out on the Ride the Clwyds mountain bike trail that runs through the site, or get set for games of golf (in Mold, 25 minutes’ drive) or footgolf (in Ruthin, 15 minutes). Walks in the Snowdonia National Park are around 45 minutes away, as are the sandy beaches of Rhyl, Prestatyn and Talacre. Castles? Of course there are a few nearby (you can’t go far in Wales without finding a castle…) Start in Denbigh (15 minutes’ drive), where you can also take a wander around the town’s ancient walls, then set your sights on family-friendly Bodelwyddan Castle (half an hour’s drive) and/or the imposing medieval fortress of Conwy Castle (45 minutes).
